Can't remember the interview, but he said he had stacks of songs written about Richey but it'd be cheesy to record a full album of them. So he leaks them out one by one*


* I said the bit about leaking them out, not him.

Aha..that explains it!..hopefully that's the final one of the stack!...I like the German tune though that they played live so hopefully that will be the next single..

so, James sings that he is driving to the bridge so why do they suddenly want to walk to the bridge? are they not at the bridge already enjoying the view of the ugly world?

Loving this track, yes it's on the nose but so what? It's a great intro that on another album could have taken it in a much darker direction but instead it kicks you in the arse and you land in a glorious synth-filled 80's! Listening to this may have been the only thing that actually made my gym session a possibility this morning!
Chorus is perpetually stuck in my brain now and I really enjoyed the other three new tracks when we had them live too, especially LGTW & Europa - Futurology can't come soon enough judging by the evidence so far!

Oh, hello to you all by the way!
*waves*
And good idea, Futurology, if all the songs look like the ones we know by now, will certainly be my gym companion from July!
Welcome!

re: the lyrics, I'm pretty sure it's "The motion starts" not 'stops'.

(Had another couple of listens thanks to er… 'ThouCylinder'… )

The song has been reposted by another blog on Tumblr, too. The audio I posted had been taken down by Tumblr, followed by an email from them, hence why it's no longer there. So I assume that audio post is also likely to have the same fate eventually. It's also not available on the sites it was listed on earlier.

Agree that this becomes a grower with every listen. The lyrics don't feel as 'uncomfortable' too. I love that it starts off with quite a menacing feel, but then just explodes into something lighter and massive with the chorus. That feeling of genuine excitement for a new Manics album is back
