Random Manics thoughts...

[Borderliner]

Kiss My Eyes For Eternity is awesome! It should've been on the album *sigh*

You ain't alone. Beautiful song

Watching JBD glance around in confusion as his Triad associates start to sing sha la sha la will never get old.

"Heyday Of The Blood" is a belter of a tune.

I can't remember the exact quote but "There's someone looking at his watch, go on! Fuck off out of my sight!".
Imagine if FD was up in the 90's and he spotted someone texting the set list to people here!

The 2nd half of KYE is prob my fav half of any Manics' album. Take me back to 2001!

The sheer beauty of early manics B-sides from GT to THB is phenomenal.

Criminal that "Donkeys" wasn't included on GATS.

I don't think it would have suited GATS to be honest unless it replaced one of the last 3 tracks. The entire period between 1992 - 1994 was great for b-sides. I'd love to hear the band revisit these live.

Been listening to "Sorrow 16" and "Dead Yankee Drawl" whilst booking in stock at work. Marvellous.

Dead yankee drawl is one of the most under rated manics songs.

Agreed.

The Scuzz music channel at 11.00 is going to show videos from bands that played that festival in 1999. I thought the Manics played there but http://www.readingfestival.com/histo...-festival-1999 no they did not!

Aww, whatever happened to "Sick Of It All"?

I miss the build up to a new album release - the first "letter" or post from Nicky on the offiicial site through to getting an idea when the new single will get its first airplay. There has been so much made of the band doing anniversery tours for albums we've owned for years that I feel kind of jaded by it. I really am excited to hear a brand new song from the band but given the circumstances of moving studios I think 2018 is the year we'll get new stuff. I would like to hear a new song at one of the upcoming festivals but I don't hold up much hope of them being anything more than a road test and showcase for SATT tracks and Greatest Hits. I could honestly die happy if I didn't hear some singles again.

I am currently re-evaluating Lifeblood for some reason.
