Oh dear, we'll never get another single without strings at this rate.
Considering the song isn't supposed to be out "officially" until June 29th I don't think it matters all that much now.

Just joining in with the love for this song. It gets better every time. And, also, Nicky maintaining that it's not about Richey... seriously?

Not to mention, "I re-imagine the steps you took / still blinded by your intellect"

It couldn't be more blatant for me and I don't understand why he's denying it.

Blinder of a track though either way.

The line is actually "I don't need this to end".

The Popcorn thread has disappeared, but technically it is now out to download officially?
You say the momentum's been lost, but it depends if it gets airplay next week, it could still do better than Anthem For A Lost Cause. But then even that single had extra stuff included.
