I'd love it if he sang a couple of his own B-sides or something in studio recordings, but I don't think the world is ready for him to have his own track on LP5 yet.

Yep. I got that too. They also 'released' the Clocks single (with only Crests Of Waves; no Animals) last week, so I got an email about that as well. :P

Knowing that someone has those other 6 tracks and isn't willing to leak them online like the rest almost irks me out a little. In saying that though, the 3 that have been leaked are fantastic.

Hahaha! That video of Viva is hilarious! The audience was so uninvolved! Worst audience ever? :laugh3:

Today (the 14th) was the day that it released in Australia. Can't believe it's been out for a whole year, craaazy! Happy birthday VLVODAAHF! :D Looking forward to seeing what LP5 brings.

This new remix is obviously relevant to the song being next to get a video, and it'll probably also be a single. The remix sounds very good though! :D

Strawberry Swing 435 + In My Place 8 -

I do like the song though.

Strawberry Swing 434 + In My Place 9 - Single digits!

Really good interview! I'm impressed, usually the interviewers ask really annoying questions which he doesn't even answer properly. :P

Ahhh, this thread is fantastic. All those high resolution Viva painting pictures! :D Thank you!!

Strawberry Swing 429 + In My Place 14 -

*waves* :P

Hmm, yeah. It'd be interesting to see what he'd say. 42 is a good guess though, I wouldn't be surprised.

Ahh, need to see this movie now. :P

This confirms Yes as Jonny's favourite Viva track! Chris - Strawberry Swing Jonny - Yes Guy - Cemeteries Of London Someone ask Will please. :P

Strawberry Swing 413 + In My Place 30 - The last 3 posts were all favouring 'Strawberry String'! I wonder if anyone else noticed that?

Brothers & Sisters was released twice. The first release, in 1999, was on the Fierce Panda label and only 2500 copies were made. It was then re-released in 2002/03 on the Sixthman label, this version is more common and generally not considered a rarity for collectors.

I cannot wait! :D Hopefully it will be great. Also, does this imply that a radio promo will be made? Therefore we also have new cover artwork to look forward to! ;)

Haha, that's so awesome. :P He seems really happy about Will getting some time in the spotlight.

Finally had a chance to take a photo of my collection. Since taking this photo I've obtained the DVD single to The Scientist. What I'm missing from my collection: - Trouble Norwegian Live EP - Don't Panic (the digipak, I got the cardboard sleeve by accident) - What If - Red Lost! - Lovers In Japan - LeftRightLeftRightLeft And of course then there's Ode To Deodorant, the Safety EP, and Mince Spies, but there's like 0% chance I'll ever obtain any of those so I'm not even going to try. And also all the radio promos to the singles from the first 3 albums, and other rarities such as the Japanese 8-track Clocks single. But they're not my focus right now.

I ordered the new programme on Friday night, it was just too good to pass up. :P
