well that certainly went to a wonderful and beautiful place by the end. There's a martin gore and smiths sound to the vocals with a quite modern twist to the sounds along with it.

i really really liked this. excitement level just went way up for release day.

I like it, but his vocal style in this reminds me of , which makes me throw up.

sounds like the Olympic games has never ended
ok, it´s not the end of the world, after 20 listenings I started to like it
...and gently knocking whispering your name

FYI there is no US itunes way to buy this. So far that I've seen, it is only available from the UK store... and my US apple ID will not allow purchase. Could try Amazon, but it's a little frustrating.

Great tune. Reminds me of the Pogues a bit.... in their more personal moments.

The US release date is tomorrow (as US new releases are on Tues., whereas the UK is Monday). It'll be available at that Amazon link for sure. Just waiting to see if it shows up on iTunes US too.

Utterly charming. Love it.

Looking forward to hearing Matthew Herbert's take on it, as well.

iTunes US is up too now. It's slightly cheaper through Amazon though.
