I thought Love in Veins was the best song when I first heard it - I love the happy vibe to it.... but now my favourites are Kansas (especially after hearing it live in Colchester) High Wire - Good time Lou stuff for Pinky!! :-)))) Stake Your Claim - I like the way it chugs along and the Cure sounding bit... Seasons - I love the typical Mac lyrics - 'Running out of time, it's half past yours and mine' and 'waiting up ahead the night sky's turning Red, too far out to hear the warning, as the day falls black there's no turning back, I'm sailing half-mast through the morning'. and I like all the others but I don't think I like the 'live and die with me' bit on Arthur but the vocal is lovely on the rest of it and Baby Hold On is a good crooner song. I also like the change of tempo through-out Another Train. Mac looks a bit queasy on that roundabout though ;-) Shaz From: Turquoise Daffodil To: villiers-terrace@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, April 28, 2003 2:13 PM Subject: [villiers-terrace] Slideling Just got it. It's very good. I think the first track, Love In Veins, is the weakest (still okay), but after that it quickly rises to a series of highlights: Arthur, Seasons, Another Train, High Wires. But the absolute top song has to be Kansas. Great artwork in the booklet too. I'm happy! Any other opinions yet? Tijn Yahoo! Groups Sponsor *********************************** (HAPPY?)

As for the choosing of singles, whoever came up with 'Sliding' and 'Love in Veins' needs a good Mark E. Smith style slap.
