I imagine that's the same demographic that actually spends the most money on music (CDs and vinyls etc), so they should just team up with her again and it would be great for business!

Just noticed that John Niven's (who co-wrote the lyrics for James's album) book Kill Your Friends has been made into a film. He also wrote the screenplay. Doesn't appear to have anything else Manics related to it other than co-staring Craig Roberts (Show Me the Wonder video).

May of been a good opportunity for them to do some soundtrack work.

DVD Deluxe Edition? :whistle:

This advert reminds me of the Everlasting video : http://youtu.be/domnInfxnC4

Yes its very similar

Nice of Wire to donate a thousand pounds to the Velindre charity hike.

Listening to my Japanese import of Everything Must Go. For some reason this is the only Japanese Manics album to not have the bonus tracks stuck on the end, with No-One Knows What It's Like To Be Me stuck in after The Girl Who Wanted To Be God and Black Garden chucked in after Interiors..

If they take EMG20 to Japan, surely they're obliged to play it this way...?

That said, the Japanese National Treasures thing was bollocks only saying so cos I wasn't there

What is this madness?

They didn't even play every UK single at a singles gig, can't take 'em too seriously!

True, but it's quite a leap between not playing two, (well four if we're counting the AA sides) and playing 23 that aren't...

Surely they just played the uk singles and threw in a couple of extras.

But UK singles aren't always singles in Japan...

Anyone know which font is used for the EMG cover?

Edit: I asked on another forum and the answer I got was Helvetica Neue Condensed Bold.

Always wondered why Nobody Loved You was released as a single in Japan.

Anyone know?

No but they were touring national treasures.

Wasn't it released in Japan instead of "The Everlasting"? Still no idea why they did it like that.
