No. The last track is. 'Cos it sounds like going home, which is what the last / penultimate track on every album should sound like. Either going home or burning home.

nah. i like parts of it but then parts of it sound like simple minds and just let me down.

ps. never use the word penultimate, unless you are philip k. dick - it's sort of meaningless.

What word would you rather I use? "The-song-before-the-last-song"? I'd get bored of having to type the hyphen.

― Nick Southall, Saturday, 11 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

penultimate is an ugly word. that's all.

I've avoided listening to Simple Minds so it doesn't bother me.

Doves are a bunch of gloomy bastards.

heh! doves played opposite my new (temporary) house on thursday night. i could look out of the window and see everyone going into the venue. they all looked like mechanics from 1984.

mechanics looked different in 1984?

― keith, Sunday, 12 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah, they all looked nervous due to Room 101 sessions.

― Ned Raggett, Sunday, 12 May 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

better than looking like Mike & the Mechanics from 1986.

Nick S's fave album has to be Going Blank Again then?

seven months pass...

Nope, I only like the first two tracks of GBA, after that I get bored and listen to Loveless.

Sorry Alan, I've not been on here for months! aS YOU CAN PROBABLY GUESS. Ooops, caps.

I'm hoping that's the Iron Maiden song called Moonchild you're all talking about, no?

― mei (mei), Monday, 6 January 2003 16:05 (twenty-two years ago)

I believe it's the King Crimson one.
