Rather than start a new thread...

What influence has TIMTTMY had on British music? I've got a horrible feeling the press is going to accuse them of giving Starsailor etc the green light with this album, even though it sounds nothing like them! I know the music is mellower compared to everything else, but no other band would think about writing a song about the Spanish civil war let alone having it as the lead single?

Coldplay and Starsailor probably think they're not far off this album but in my book they're several lightyears away!

Which disc are you going to play first? I'm sure I'll be seeing the DVD disc before moving on to the others. I like the idea of a trilogy of anniversary editions. This looks like the last reissue they'll do for a time so make it last!
Can't wait.
Yep, I reckon I'll go for the DVD, then the re mixes etc, then the original album. Argh - I really want this to happen now!

NICKY - SORT IT OUT!!!! (we know you're reading this )

Saying that though, if they're busy recording new stuff it might be overlooked/decided against

You're forgetting it was an interview with the same man who said the album might be out before the end of the year...

we'd probably only get one of those crappy fold-out cd posters that are always too small if we get one at all
