please qualify this by quoting the bits of the lyrics (i.e. not saying "well all of it) that illustrate this point.

Sean :
J : OK, how deep is it?
N : well, if the fans weren't carving our lyrics in their arms before, wait until they get a load of this
J : erm, yeah, are you sure you don't want to save this for another solo album?
N : thought of that, but i find it tricky to sing "hair" that many times. go on, you do it, you are much better at it.
J : really?
N : yes, Sean said so. didn't you Sean?
S :
J : well, yeah, OK then, we can record it, but it's not going on the album, we will just shove it out as a random b-side.
N : yeah, sure, honest. oh, and on that note, why don't you take a bit of a break once we've finished recording, you know, go and look at some new amps or eat some pies. we'll put the record together, no problem, won't we Sean?
S :
J : are you sure? i've heard of a class new amp, dark solar or something. they stock it next to King Pie.
N : yeah, go on. tuck in.
J : Sean, you are going to make sure that Autumnsong or any other such shit doesn't make it on to the album, aren't you?
S :
J : cheers fella


the above saw a very angry James put Nicky Wire on musical probation for a while. when Nicky sneaked the song out as a single whilst James was shown an image of a speaker with a pie on it, the Supreme Council of the Manics banned Nicky Wire from writing anything for a whole album, hence JFPL being the next release.

Am I allowed to say that this is getting offensive and it stopped being funny a couple of posts ago?
Obviously everyone is free to write whatever they want.

a quite serious apology offered to anyone who has taken the slightest calorie of offence; if you are offended or do not find it funny by all means feel free to ignore this thread and pursue other posts.

i don't think it was intended as a serious discussion in the first place?

I like Autumnsong. Would be better if they weren't lazy, and wrote a proper second verse.

I think of it as a Summer song as well despite the fact it's called Autumnsong!

Just by their standards really. It's an alright pop rock song as it goes, if a little mindless. But thats not what I want from the band.
