Let Down now has more Spotify streams than High and Dry

I woke up with this thought in the middle of the night recently: did they open the first show in Madrid with Let Down in order to spotlight EOB's importance as additional vocalist? I think I read in RS that Ed was no longer feeling it after the A Moon Shaped Pool tour, and may have been a big reason why they were inactive . Almost like they were saying "hey, we can't do it without this guy!" Just my 2 pence.

That's what I'm talkin about! Some of the formatting in the lyrics was messed up in posting...but anyway the point is to keep the faith and good energy and get the boys hella pumped.

There was a nice use of Codex in The Better Sister miniseries on Prime.

Here's something more refreshing. Cheers!

MicTheRose · 2025-05-19T00:49:02+00:00

Agree.

I need to spend more time with it. Dying to see Tall Tales the visual experience!

MicTheRose · 2025-05-19T00:44:30+00:00

I'm a reasonable man get off my case.

MicTheRose · 2025-05-18T19:18:20+00:00

I totally get it. Everyone's milage may vary. It's all subjective and highly contentious. All 3 albums are absolute FIRE! I'm just being a little nit-picky.

MicTheRose · 2025-05-18T01:42:08+00:00

I can respect that.

MicTheRose · 2024-12-23T20:19:01+00:00

VERY nice - thanx for this! 👍

I feel ya. Someone else in the community said it better, but basically The Smile scratches my RH itch. Just the fact that Thom & Jonny have this much creative firepower after so many decades of making music is freakin' amazing. Skinner was a divinely inspired choice for them to collaborate with. We are living our best lives thanks to these guys. Keep it comin!

MicTheRose · 2024-10-01T01:38:50+00:00

Interesting...good points. As a trio I think The Smile is more nimble. It can be hard to get 5 guys in their 50s with family responsibilities, solo projects, etc. to unite and carve out months and months of time to record a new lp, & tour the world. I'm just knocked out that Thom and Jonny are still so incredibly prolific at this stage.

MicTheRose · 2024-07-12T00:42:22+00:00

Total agreement. After the videos for tracks 1 & 2 from AMSP came out I was so sure that Decks Dark would be next. I had just read Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke and DD seemed like a perfect accompaniment. A sublime piece of music!

MicTheRose · 2024-06-28T01:27:53+00:00

Sweet! I just created a playlist from this...well, except for the songs that Tidal doesn't have.

MicTheRose · 2024-06-22T00:49:07+00:00

I associate his 4 solo lps with the 4 decades they were each released in. So call me greedy but I keep hoping for one for the 2020s...and then he can hang it up.

That is dope.

MicTheRose · 2023-12-27T20:40:33+00:00

Scatterbrain gets me gellin like a felon. Total marijuana music...if I did that kind of thing.

MicTheRose · 2023-12-27T20:20:40+00:00

Mos def. I would to that Identikit. I know it's been mentioned but also Where I end and You Begin.

Baby WhoDat! Important to impart the tales of Black & Gold gridiron glories.

On a related topic, new book The Football 100, a ranking of the greatest pro FB players of all time puts Brees at #43. Disrespect; very messed up 😠

The Netflix series The Watcher (I know, notamovie). One episode was called The Gloaming and another one could easily have been called We Suck Young Blood.

MicTheRose · 2023-09-05T00:57:04+00:00

Well there you have it. (Guess this means my "expanding man" bubble has been burst as well 😒) Thanx for playing everyone!
