Just heard it. Very nice, and I like Chris's voice on it.

here's a youtube video, sorry it's really bad quality...

I prefer Chris's version but that might be because his version is better quality, I am used to him singing and he is....the lead singer!

All I can picture when listening to this is Chris singing to himself whilst sitting in a rocking chair on the side of a Louisiana bayou. Is that weird?

love this song!

ohk... btw who is will?

 

 

What?!:stunned: now you must be joking mate! im sorry, but that was a bit stupid. what are you doing in this forum when you don't even know who will is?:laugh3:

this song is horrible, i can't believe they actually tried to make us download this utter crap

tried to make us download it? it's a free song! get over it. You sacrificed ten seconds of your time to hear this song, why are you complaining?

it's nice with Chris as well but his voice is just a bit harsher than william's...

 

I vote will of course lol

 

and the person who asked who will is......

 

:argue:

I can see it on an album with Will and guitar in between two songs by Chris (of which, one with piano and falsetto). The tension and contrast would work nice. They would enhance one another.

In the same trend about country, Dylan, bluesy song, anyone an opinion on Kooks version of Violet Hill ?

Perplexed

While I am a first time poster, but not a first time reader of this site, and based on what happened to the person who uttered the words above I'm a little scared to say anything, but I do have a similar opinion about this new 'free' song.

 

Let me preface this with stating my devoted allegiance towards one of the greatest bands of my lifetime. I have traveled "O'er Hill & Dale" to see these guys in some of the coolest venues and CP is one of my top live bands I've seen. (Radiohead being top, which Chris, Johnny, Will & Guy would probably agree with)

 

"but"

 

This song was a huge disappointment for me. I just don't get it. I tried to read to better understand if there is something behind the song I'm missing, but the only thing I could come away with is maybe it's a really cool live song they've been doing that just didn't quite translate with to someone who hasn't seen them perform it live.

 

Viva was rough to me at first, as a whole, but I always will give them the benefit of the doubt and listen a hundred times and I definitely came around on Viva and listen all the time now, but this song hurts my ears. :-(

 

And please don't hate on me for voicing my opinion. I just am hoping someone can fill me in on any meaning behind the song? Some sort of story that makes it better?

 

I'll hang up and listen. Thanks for the cool fan site. I enjoy reading and finding new stuff about my fav band. Please don't hate me... just a concerned die hard fan.

It's a good song, but it's too short! I'd love a longer version of it.
