Now I've had a bit of time to digest Orwellian and get over the initial excitement, for me, as far as post-Tigers lead tracks go, I'd put Orwellian fourth after International Blue, Walk Me to the Bridge and Jackie Collins. Show Me the Wonder fifth and It's Not War sixth.

I was definitely guilty of building it up in my head before hearing it that it was going to be an ultra power anthemic banger like the first three in that list and it very nearly is. It's just not as urgent or powerful or memorable as those for me. Close but not quite there.

Saying that, it hasn't lowered my expectations or diminished my anticipation for the rest of the album in the slightest. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for something to come from nowhere completely unexpected and blow my socks off like Europa Geht Durch Mich did.
