It's almost as "un-manic" as Autumnsong, but unlike the Hair song, I love it.
Lyrics are really moving, although I prefer JDB's vocal to old Ian's (obviously, MSP are way better than the Bunnymen). Despite the fact it does feel lyrically like Wire's 73rd "Ode to You-know-who", it's great.
Maybe I'm biased, opinion twisted by my two year old daughter, who adores it and sings along with the choral bits, but I love it.

Yay! Apart from the 'old Ian' bit. Love Ian McCulloch / Echo & The Bunnymen!
