Agreed. :laugh3: Yeah albums leak all the time...but a lot of people still buy them...getting the leak's not gonna stop most of us here paying for it. Personally, I want the blooming cd in my grubby little hands now, so I can admire it..;) I haven't managed a proper listen all the way thru yet, but on first impressions, I think I prefer it to Kites too..altho' it's not gonna beat Frengers for me. But this has to be the most beautifully rich album they've made - it's just stunningly beautiful..so many layers..diverse yet simple. My absolute, runaway favourite is Sometimes Life Isn't Easy..in fact I have a sneaky feeling it may just become my new fav song ever.fullstop. (Better than Yes even...& I bloody love that song) It's just so gorgeous..the handclaps..the way it changes all the way thru (it sounds like two or 3 songs melded together)..the vocals are gorgeous, the choir and the old woman whose name escapes me...just sound incredible. It's so upbeat musically, yet the lyrics seems a little darker...plus I'm going thru some crap at the moment and the lyrics suited my mood perfectly today...(Hold my arms back/When they beat me/Leave me in ditch/When they kicked me/Sever my limbs and deceive me) I find it nicely ironic that this is the song with Bo's crazy dancing, when it has lyrics like that. Other highlights for me are Hawaii and Vaccine...and I think Reprise deserves a mention (the lyrics in that almost made me cry today..cos I'm such a saddo :))

Beach is lovely..:dance: Just plonking it on a cd now so I listen to it on the cd player while I do my hair and then I'll stick it on in the car on my way to work too...

Well, you'll only be able to buy Frengers or ..And the Glass Handed Kites the others Triumph For Man & Half The World Is Watching Me were re-issued but still the re-issues cost a fortune, that's if you can find them...I didn't feel bad d/loading them..:embarassed: You should be able to buy the ep easily enough..iTunes or something anyway... :D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mew_(band)
