ugh, I agree about Insomnia. I dont get why they choose to put that on the setlist.

I thought The Man that Knew too Much should could have been a single, its one of my favorite songs from the album

And All Across the World is a little corny but good.. I love the way he sings on that song

Does it bother anyone else that Ben used the same drum opening for both Waiting All Day and Low? It's always bugged the hell out of me.

insomnia

Postby melina » Fri Jun 20, 2008 2:27 pm

I feel the need to defend Insomnia
this is my take on it.
"retro look" pertains to the colours used on the album cover.
"dont use the term accomodation" is pertaining to relaxing or slacking off and can't be entered into if success is to be achieved.
"dine behind a siutcase in an empty room, leave the millions behind" is directly related to the band touring.

This song has given insight directly into the bands world.
I am interested to hear anyone elses take.

anyone see the similarities between Straight lines and ANA's Song (open fire) in composition?


i think that waiting all day is pure booring? although i did prefer it when hearing it live :) dont know waht it was but heck it was more interesting and i kind of liked it.


I wished that the album took on more of a AAT style, that would be grand.

i wish that it took on some of the sounds of the muse with dans vocie and then break out into a rock JAM :) kind of like mid reader / muse (their older stuff). Could end up with Emotion Sickness styled songs but with dans straight line oooo' oooooo's.


ohhh i want new album!
