October 10, 201510 yr You know the best song of ghost stories, for me its all your friends. It have some vibe of oldplay that I like it so much
October 10, 201510 yr Well, it's not like I have a superpower but I hear "oceans, oceans, oceans" at the 1:08-1:12 mark-ish. No source, just trying to listen carefully. [emoji28] Hey... you're right! I actually heard him say "Oceans. oceans, oceans" right there! Can confirm that... and that's from me just putting it on my speakers. It's easy to hear when casually listening the echo, but you've gotta be paying close attention to make out "Oceans"... again, that's pretty cool how you found that out... from casually listening right?
October 10, 201510 yr I heard Chris says satanic things when you listen closely in Cemeteries of London. REALLY?!
October 11, 201510 yr You know the best song of ghost stories, for me its all your friends. It have some vibe of oldplay that I like it so much For me, the song with the most Oldplay vibe off GS is Ghost Story. It's the only song that made it into my list of songs I listen to regularly, although Fly On is also quite good.

October 11, 201510 yr Back on track here because I have had an idea. Lyrically, does anyone else think that Amazing Day would fit right in after Up With the Birds if put on MX?
October 11, 201510 yr I'm not sure, to be honest. Because Up With The Birds has these lines and themes about going far away and leaving everything behind to find the person you love at the end with a positive attitude that one day it will happen, while Amazing Day depicts a comfortable situation and sitting next to the person you love. There'd be so much missing in-between.
October 11, 201510 yr Well I think they ran away/found each other and they are "sharing/shedding every bruise and showing every scar" from Silencia.....and they are "forgetting the world and it's weight"......just a thought :)
October 11, 201510 yr Yeah, it could be some happy end a long time after the events of MX. A kind of epilogue. But then MX would be even cheeeeeeeeeeeeeesier, wouldn't it ? :P

But then MX would be even cheeeeeeeeeeeeeesier, wouldn't it ? :P Idk about cheesy.....I think the band poured a lot of thought into that album, but I will always try to defend MX without offending Oldplayers too much :)

October 12, 201510 yr Same here... I think MX is a great album, it's my fav in fact :P Guess I'm not alone!
October 12, 201510 yr Guess I'm not alone! *virtual high-five* Glad to see someone with the same thoughts as me on :mx: ! :D
October 12, 201510 yr Is it bad that I already have forgotten about Amazing Day ? Since they played it over two weeks ago, I didnt felt the need to listen to it again :/
October 12, 201510 yr Is it bad that I already have forgotten about Amazing Day ? Since they played it over two weeks ago, I didnt felt the need to listen to it again :/ Nah. Its not bad. I have it on my phone but rarely listen to it too. [emoji23]
October 12, 201510 yr I had Violet Hill on repeat back then, such as I had Talk or their first televised performances of Charlie Brown and Major Minus at Rock am Ring in 2011. Even that crappy first video of POC from Rock im Park, I was obsessed with. Not got those feeling for Amazing Day tho.

All those you mentioned are heavier/faster songs. Maybe they left a better impression on you when you first heard them.
October 12, 201510 yr They were way more memorable to me. To get a connection to a slower song, Strawberry Swing caught me the same way as those fast songs mentioned above.
October 12, 201510 yr I think I listened to Amazing Day for about ten times, and then grew tired of it. And now I can only remember the last part of the song where everybody is "ooOOOOoooOOooh"-ing (again). And everytime I try to remember the actual lyrics my brain switches to "Always In My Head" :blank:
October 12, 201510 yr for me the initial criticism was just because of this. amazing day is forgettable and sounds uninspired. if it ends up in lp7 (which seems highly likely unless it goes the way of MTM) it will be a deep cut like UIF.
