    glad it's growing on you somewhat. i don't know if you saw my earlier post, but thanks to you I can't help but picturing the band roller-skating in drag from the One video during the solo from Magnificent.

    Thanks, yeah.

    I'm sorry - but given that the working title probably was "French disco" I think I'm not the only one who had that idea.

    well said.

    Still one of my favorites on the album, even if the solo is somewhat ruined now.
  4. Still bottom 3 for me. Nice intro but just a yawn fest when it begins properly.
  5. My favourite song on the album. And a lot of the others are growing on me too.

  7. I think this is would be an amazing single. Its even kicking ass on iTunes. (IN AMERICA :O!)
  8. As I said, I like the song...I like all the new songs except Boots. But the live performances are making a difference...the live Magnificent, as I said, was disappointing for me...I was hoping for more energy. Yet Crazy Tonight's performance got a wow out of me, and moved that song much higher than it's poppy status for me.

    I agree completely. The live version of Magnificent lacks power. Its a bit boring to listen at live Still excellent on the album though
  10. I'm trying really hard to like this song more than I do.
  11. The live version lets me down a bit too. They need to change something, don't know what. It's no way near Streets..no way.

    yeh the live versions dunt seem that good, the build up to edges guitar just isnt as intense as it is on the album, they need to add sumthing to the song like more solo or sumthing that will spice it up.
