Listening to the album again this morning, and it's become more and more apparant to me that the track Sliding is ruined by the la-la-la's, duh-duh-duh's ( or whatever it's meant to be at the end of each starting/second line of the verse ) and yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah type thingys ( err, the Coldplay mutterings ?) littering the track. I dunno, perhaps I'm being over-cranky.. I quite like the harmonies, but feel that less is more regarding the other noodlings on the track...Apart from that, I'm enjoying the album more with each listen..

Stu > " I feel like I'm diagonally parked in a parallel universe." Yeah, I'm not much on the backing vocals. But as I've said, I think that other than the name recognition factor, I think "Sliding" is one of the weaker tracks on the album, and not one I would have chosen. I too grow to like it more, and it's kinda cool that my little one loves it too. She asks for it all the time, and has now gotten into "my" songs (sorry Mac!) as well as Matt's remix, which is "my favourite. The one I love. Yeah, that one." My eldest wants to be a writer now, and the youngest is into music.

God, I can't focus today. "Not one I would have chosen as the first single."

Yep! The wife can't come, as she's broken her wrist, so I have a spare. Not quite sure what time I will get there, though, yet. Might not arrive until after people have left the pub an gone to the gig. Have you got a mobile I can ring to let you know what time I will arrive/where we can meet etc?

I'm going to the gig tomorrow but havent as yet got a ticket. If anyones got a spare I'll take it off their hands for a reasonable sum. Saves trying to get rid of it to a tout.
