Re: Diamond Jigsaw
This is such a fucking tune, man.

Reminds me of Prince's 'I Wanna Be Your Lover' for some reason.

Blinding. Let's 'ave the new album, please?

Re: Diamond Jigsaw
What the *fuck* is that?

I mean, I quite like it, but somehow that just feels wrong. It's like a song, not a tune.

I wonder if they'll put it out as a 7"? maybe the B-side for Between Stars

Re: Diamond Jigsaw
I wasn't feeling it at first, but now I like it. Though this is only a fan recording so there may be multiple changes to it.

Re: Diamond Jigsaw
The intro is pretty good until the "peep" sound disappears and that horrible synth starts not to mention the singing.

Dated? .....ha..ha..coudn´t say it better. They did something similar with Between the stars latest.
Multiple changes? ....Ok guys is this a joke or something?

Re: Diamond Jigsaw
The song certainly sounds like a pre-Dubno release in some ways (certainly lyrically). But it's so much better than anything they were even capable of making then, which isn't all that surprising. It's so uplifting and the lyrics are still the cut-and-paste masterpieces we all love.

Speaking of which, here's my best stab at the lyrics:

Does it hurt
That you finally found yourself
And does it hurt
That you crawled out of your shell
Black carpet from my mood
Come let me shine
Lonely sweet love come on you
Give me your time
Don't look at me like a tourist
The dark sky (?)
Outside alone and all the signs
Alone and all the signs
Alone and

Does it help
That you finally found yourself
And does it help
That you crawled out of your shelf
I wanna wake up in a better place
Take me in your care
Lonely and
*cough* horny in the dark
There's someone there
And there's a white stretch limo parked out
A single line
Premium tequila
Diamond jigsaw makes me feel fine

Does it help
That you finally found yourself
And does it help
That you crawled out of your shell
Can you hear me can you hear me calling
When the moon is on
I wanna feel I wanna feel surrounded
Lying in the dark
And there's a white stretch limo parked out
A single line
Premium tequila
Diamond jigsaw makes me feel fine

Does it help
And does it help
And does it help
And does it help

Re: Diamond Jigsaw
I love this tune. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside
I always find it quite refreshing to hear dance music that is just unashamedly upbeat and happy, like Rez, TMO or Jumbo.
Is "it sounds like song, not a tune" a serious criticism? It seems to me that the two terms are largely interchangeable.

Re: Diamond Jigsaw
I'm loving it too. A distinct poppy, electro sound almost. But so what. It makes me feel happy.
