I was a lover
yes yes but what's your favourite TV On The Radio song?
(mine's Satellite)
loflrofl
ha
I was just about to post Ambulance as well.
Poppy is brilliant too.
The new record is fantastic but I haven't yet got into it enough to pick favourites
wolf like me off the new record
possible, just for its sheer power.or maybe snakes and martyrs. hes got such a beautiful voice.actually they both have. and live, best band ive ever seen. mesmerising, intense, powerful.
i was a lover
i can't stop tapping the beat at the beginning
Ive only got return to cookie mountain
I still cant decide. I love the album with a passion. Its probably going to be my favourite of the year.
My favourite song changes every week or so. At the moment its probably...
A method, I think.
wolf like me
oh yes oh yes.
Change that to province.
actually keep it as it was.
I cant decide.
Wolf Like Me
but I've only got Return To Cookie Mountain. I Was A Lover and Hours are also amazingly good. I can't decide.
either
ambulance or province
"suddenly, all your history's ablaze"
or i was a lover, or hours (that opening beat is great) ... hard to choose a best song of theirs really.
wolf like me
first track on the newie
which is slightly annoying.
Staring At The Sun
but i don't dislike any of their songs.
i have 2
wolf like me because oh my god, it's amazing.
and dreams, because ... i like it.
staring at the sun on record
ambulance live
Tonight
I Was A Lover
Yeah
Blues from down here
Is my fave
At the moment:
I Was a Lover
and
Province.
Let's see now...
From Young Liars - Staring At The Sun
From Desperate Youth - Poppy
From Return To Cookie Mountain - Province
Overall winner - erm, Staring At The Sun, just.
DREAMS
Ditto.
.
Wolf like Me
the drums slay me
or Staring at the Sun - the melody ditto.
I was too drunk at ATP to remember very much about the live stuff - except there were awesome.
Without doubt....
Dry Drunk Emperor!!!
It's difficult to have a fav
the new record is outstanding. There isn't one duff track on it. I also really like 'New Health Rock' as well as all their previous work.
Incidentally,
can anyone else here how they've lifted odd bits of melody and phrasing from their previous work on the new lp?
It was A Method for a while
then Poppy, now it's Province
new health rock
or ambulance
staring at the sun
but i've only got desperate youth
^
Exactly this
I think the version of Staring
At The Sun is better on the Young Liars EP if only for the slower build up in the intro
probably...
dreams
wrong way was good live too
!
I Was A Lover, easily.
Well, not easily after Staring At The Sun and Wolf Like Me but still...
Definitely "Blind"
I don't rush to call things perfect but "Blind" is just about that.
Either
Staring at the sun or King Eternal
