You are right. It is just that it does not feel like a typical chorus. The mood and tempo of the song help it to blend so nicely. I love how his voice presents "Thunder I wonder" at 4:07. Fantastic.
the tempo is great: a less experienced songwriter might have upped the pace, but it's great as it is.. and, yes, very Pink Floyd

yeah I dont get the chorus point either. it clearly has a chorus.
I thought the song was moving along really nicely as I was listening to it but when he started singing higher with the harmonys I was really hooked. and I love that little quiet interlude also,and at the end where it lightens up and slows down and neil is repeating some words.
this bodes well for the CD in my view as this isnt even one of the songs that generally is brought up as being one of the best songs.

Another grower! I can hear something like Hit and Miss, that's good! And It's like Release Evolution or something like that. I like it.
Like, like, like, like

It has all the elements of a great PSB song for me, treading an incredible, uncertain line between happiness and a deep melancholy - is everything going to be alright in the end, or not? Neil's voice has an amazing ability to leave the listener wondering.
The perfect song to listen to as the sun goes down on a warm summer's evening . . . .

Grandiose and atmospheric, but also incredibly boring. Minimal ftw!

generic, yes.
I'm hoping that studio quality will bring a lot more to the experience - I like it overall, I guess; and I reckon it will work when played with other tracks off the album: i.e. this album seems like it'll be more thematically consistent. I like albums like that.

>Dazzer was right, it sounds a bit like Air. I love it.

in a way I hate that I listened as I LOVE Luna Park and I can tell theres little nuances I am not really hearing clearly. I can tell during those beautiful quiet parts with that flute type sound that there is a sample of wind blowing or something simulating wind, it really gives it an otherwordly atmospheric quality. I would call this song epic.

I think the song is good, but not that great. I guess having heard Air before, I don't find the sound original or fresh or special. The lyrics are excellent and if not for them, the track seems somewhat forgettable.

Lovely song, because its a ballad doesnt make it suck. Want another Condfession from a dancefloor, don't get that from PSB, all dance track repetitively bore you as you go along, PSB not like that. Mix them up. I would be happy with Fundamental, from the I'm with stupid dance to ballads.
