See now, no matter how good their 'special guests' are it will never live up to the promise of that sentence.

Nothing against this thread in particular, but do we really need so many on one song? OK I know it was a shock release but...

I voted a yay too! Wasn't really fond of the song after it being over played so much last year but they have given it a new lease of life and I'm up for this being played at the NME gig.

When can we expect to be hearing Donkeys???

Although without the orgasmic solo it might be missing something.

It's really hard for me to say, but I don't like it.

I suppose you can't like everything your favourite band does, and now I have two Manics songs I don't like - Umbrella and Australia.
