Sample on Amazon sounds good. Looking forward to hearing the full thing. Can't hear the longer sample on iTunes, because in classic iTunes fashion, the whole store doesn't load. iTunes, why must you be so awful?

So James doesn't sing any bits with the title as on the live version? Unusual. Definitely prefer the live version after hearing it now although it's not as bad as I thought it might be.

Live version much better. Good song though, 7/10.

The song starts off absolutely amazing with the bass and the siren noises, but it's downhill from there.

Those harmonies on the chorus and octaved backing vocals on the verses don't need to be there. And that weird shouty thing from James at the end of each line - I really don't like that at all. The cowbell percussion as well? What's that all about?

Live version so much better, recorded version is way overproduced.

I still really like it, but think I prefer the live version. Bit disappointed James doesn't sing the 'Europa Geht Durch Mich' parts though...but to be fair Nina Hoss sings 'Arrropa' as well Also sounds like Stomp have been set loose on the percussion with a load of bin lids. I think I'm just used to the live version after all this time.
