I like this song a lot.

But it borrows some melodies from two videogames.

One is from one of the tunes of "Final Fantasy VII", and the other one is the sound before a combat in a well known fighting game, but I can't recall which one.

'Numb'? Has it already leaked too??? Oh...
Anyway I'm not going to listen to anything else befor the official release. I want at least half an album to be absolutely new for me when I buy it...

And the secret track...the John Cage cover version.I'm surprised that no-one has mentioned this yet. That is the REAL talking point! I'm just disappointed that it's a somewhat edited down version.

love it but I wish there was more of the high singing "sun sin sex and death and destruction" part.I also think when the music starts up after the sound effect intro it sounds a little too tacky.

also,the title is too heavy for the sort of lite and breezy 60's summerfest music.
but I found once I relaxed I really do enjoy this song as its soo complicated sounding that if you dont like one part, just hold on cause another segment is coming you might like.I also hear the beatles "help' similairites someone else brought up but not enough to bother me.

Why don't I like this song? I've listened to it a hundred times by now and I still don't like it :?

i didn't realise that but so far all of the songs remind me of (a) certain psb song(s) or non-psb tracks.

8/10

The "S&G Show" is simply the track which massive audiences will assoiacte FUNDAMENTAL to.

It is the GO WEST of the album. It deserves the maximun qualification : BRILLIANT PSB. ;)
Neil Tennant has a great voice, Chris Lowe has great silence.
