...and heard I'm with stupid for the first time!

I've avoided downloading it, don't know why, but there you go. Must've been the only person on this forum that hadn't heard it before today!

Anyway, I know it was a first listen, but I'm not massively impressed. Not as good as Flamboyant IMHO. Particularly dislike the way Neil sings 'stupid' - don't think you'll find 'stoopaird' in the dictionary.

Ha!

I said you'd hear it before it came out

Now, go and watch the video!

It's a grower.

Sure. Flamboyant is a hundred times better though.

I prefer "I'm with stupid", the production is much better.

A matter of taste.

For me Flamboyant was one of their best singles in years. Also Miracles was very strong. So maybe this is why I was not really impressed by I'm with stupid either when I first heard it but it is definitely a grower and now I really adore the song. I think if it had come out as the first single after their Release period the buzz about this song might have even been much bigger. But all in all I think the last three PSB Singles including I'm with stupid were really really good.

Aww, why didn`t you catch the video the other night? ..I wasn`t sure about it on the first two listens but now I really love it, it started to grow on me after that.

It worked otherwise on me...Further I listened, the worse I'm with stupid got...I am not sure why...only the suberp video saved it lately but apart from this, I tend to forget it...Maybe comments that I'm with stupid is rather not so good as other songs in Fundamental let my expectations fly high and overlook I'm with stupid as a nice intro but nothing else.

first thing i posted after hearing it was the dodgy pronunciations of the word stewpad!

Sorry mate, no sympathy from me

You knew it was single of the week so you should have listened to another station or a cd or something.

I think you secretly really wanted to hear it
