Somekind of Nothingness - Hit, miss or maybe?

[MoralMajority]

I really like it, much better than the single I think. Nice to hear the full thing after seeing it live earlier this month

[Ben]

I really like the song, but I don't really like the duet. I think Ian McCulloch sounds awful. I much preferred it at the Hammersmith show with James doing all the vocals.

I think the choir is really great.

I think it's too hard as a Manics fan to accept JDB singing with a gospel choir. It sounds wrong, but the record sounds good.

[Mr Richey]

I didn't know if I would like gospel choirs in a Manics song, but it totally works. This is by far the best tune I've heard from the new album so far. As it's a radio rip, there is no bass so that sucks but you can still get a real feeling for what the song sounds like and it's fantastic. The duet I can take or leave, would've prefered JDB throughout to be honest. But yeah, this has certainly risen my hopes for PFAYM. Couldn't really tell from the live show rip what I thought of this but I can say now that it's a hit (with me at least).

Agreed on both counts. If it wasn't for the dodgy duet it would have been a definite hit from me. Hopefully it'll grow on me.

Totally agree with this. It sounded fantastic live - but really not sure about the Ian McC vocals.

I love it!

[MSPKYE]

Maybe a little bit of gospel over kill but very strong track and I like it alot. and yeah I think Im one of the prefered just James vocal. Definitely a future single though.

[JDMANIC]

I'm lovin' it. If it doesn't become a hit, that would be a real shame.

[Napoleon Bonaparte]

Liking it more now, I wants the full quality version first though.

It would be a crime if it wasn't a single because a full JDB vocal version has a chance to surface then. I am loving I-Mac's "Never Stop" ad-lib though.

[albireo]

I'm not so sure about the background singers, but apart from that I really like it.

[James]

I LOVE it!

[Tom]

After two listens, I fucking love it.

[Mr Richey]

Sent it to my brother, who wasn't that keen on ITWJTEOL. His thoughts?

"That's more like it!"

Two thumbs up from The Hackett Brothers

[starryknight]

love it!
