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

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! :lol:

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. :roll:

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.

Sorry mate, no sympathy from me :P

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 :D
