I think Johatsu is a really lovely song, though I don't have an idea how it would go from vinyl to mp3. The vinyl single sounds amazing and I think this song is also indirecly about Richey, as it's about disappearing
The lyrics are a bit to define though can anyone correct them? this is what I hear.. Inside a quiet shopping arcade Dreams are real which not really made They fade away A tradition evading to hide against settlements for the dead who don't die. I want you to know that I'm not a ghost yet The company man looks so desolate The mass appeals with? inspite of turned debt I want you to know that I'm not a ghost yet As sunlight falls over a broken life A wreck of constellations of cities, so hostile Got a degree in the bible back then All expositions/ex possessions in a carrier bag, of despair I want you to know that I'm not a ghost yet The company man who looks so desolate The mass appeals?with in spite of turned debt. I want you to know that I'm not a ghost yet I am not a ghost yet (4 ever delayed/ lifeblood sound music) Chorus I want you to know that I'm not a ghost yet I'm not a ghost yet Not a ghost yet Not a ghost yet music Last edited by rosetree; 16-02-2025 at 14:41.

Given the fact that they've released a lyric video for every song on the album, it would be nice if the next single was a proper digital EP so that we can get these two tracks in a digital format, maybe with a remix or two. Probably won't happen though.

Yeah I have the same problem. ordered the full bundle and the tracks are on vinyl so nothing to play them on at the minute! I suppose they could have added insult to injury and just included them on the cassette as well to take the piss

No popcorn folks, sorry.
Let the Light Return Let the light return Let it shine, let it burn Let it be, let it hurt Let the light return And with the coming of the night I will be by your side I will raise you a smile I will bring back the light It’s not easy Nothing you said could ever change It’s not easy (It’s not easy *is it? / easy?*) It’s not easy Nothing you say will be the same It’s not easy To change Let the light return Let it shine, let it burn Let it be, let it hurt Let the light return And with the coming of the night I will be by your side I will raise you a smile I will bring back the light It’s not easy Nothing you say has been disclosed It’s not easy (It’s not easy, is it?) It’s not easy All that I know remains untold It’s not easy To show Let the light return Let it shine, let it burn Let it be, let it hurt Let the light return And with the coming of the night I will be by your side I will raise you a smile I will bring back the light ~ Quote:
This is what I reckon (not far off what you had): Johatsu Inside a quiet shopping arcade Dreams are ruined but rarely made They fade away A tradition of needing to hide Outcast settlements for the dead Who don’t die I want you to know that I’m not a ghost yet The company man looks so desolate Domestic abuse victims violence and debt I want you to know I’m not a ghost yet As sunlight falls over a broken life A wreck of constellations, a city So hostile Scattered debris in the Bible-black air All life’s possessions in a carrier bag Of despair I want you to know that I’m not a ghost yet A company man looks so desolate Domestic abuse victims violence and debt I want you to know I’m not a ghost yet I’m— not a ghost yet Not a ghost yet ~ I want you to know that I’m not a ghost yet The company man looks so desolate Domestic abuse victims violence and debt I want you to know I’m not a ghost yet Not a ghost yet Not a ghost yet

I really didn't want to share especially after some of the recent comments (some of you are decent) and have no idea if this works but here you go. I can't be bothered to rip the demos. Critical Thinking b-sides

Edit: Let the Light Return: Maybe on the low end of Nicky b-sides. Just plods along until Nick trips over the synth from Dying Breeds. Definitely no 'It's so easy' that's for sure. Johatsu: This feels like a Futurology b-side to me. While acknowledging the FD/L connections, the bleakness of the lyric is reminiscent of something like The Sound of Detachment.
