ah damn just bought the Japanese PFAYM just for the bonus tracks! ah well, Evidence Against Myself is a fantastic track anyway.

Bit surprised that the second singles is being released such a long time after the album being It's Not War was only released a week before hand. I think the trouble this single is going to have is the fact that anyone who likes the single may not wait till its out and just individually off the album

Indie/Rock is generally out of favour in the british charts at the mo' and with that in mind its meant to have done quite well

Lifeblood only reached number 13 i think and then sank

sales rarely reflect quality, but with 2 high flying singles off a failing album you would have thought a 3rd, in particular one that reflected the album a good deal better than the 2 chosen, would have been a sales strategy. oh, yeah, forgot, Sony.

never mind, seem to be leading this thread off track a touch......

They should have remixed this song down for release, dropped the choir down a peg or two and increased the lead guitar

A bit weird. The official Manics site hasn't let me log on for ages but it allowed me to there!
