In conclusion, waaay too jolly for me and here's hoping the album better be bloody good.

I'm starting to see the "sale jingle" in it now.

With the Manics they make one album full using leftover Richey lyrics and everyone loves it, they return with an all-out pop/rock single (which they have stated many, many times) and people are up in arms complaining and demanding another Yes or Intense Humming of bloody Evil!

Forever Delayed: Great for news, shite for fans! I'm happy with the single though. I love their previous nine albums and I reckon I'll love this one.
