I think production wise and as far as song setup for me luna park is one of the most interesting songs they have ever done.

when I first heard it and it got to the quiet parts with the wind and that pretty synth lead part I was like wow, this doesnt sound like something the PSB would normally do. I also love "you choose", but for me luna park is operating on a whole other level.lyrically its one of neils finest also.

If I had to choose, I would choose for "You Choose". Excellent song.

I think that ILTR is far more similar. It's like You Choose's more sexy sister; a simple lyrical and melodic idea carried out with elegant turn of phrase by Mr. Tennant.
Love comes quickly, but is a catastrophe and a bourgeois construct etc.

I was saying that Indefinite is similar to You Choose, not Luna Park. Sorry if that wasn't clear. Luna Park seems more like King's Cross to me - a swirling, beautiful soundscape.

Where does any (elegant) turn of phrase take place in the ILTR lyrics? I consider them quite straightforward (unlike "...as clumsy as I felt at stumbling..." part from IMMEAL).
