Agree. I have to just let the song be without really enjoying it until the 2nd half. Future Past /*/* This one is "ambiguous" to me, I'm not a fan of that quite "cheesy" melody, but that guitar break saves the song and is one of my favorite moments on the album. It reminds me Robert Fripp on "Scary Monsters" ("It's No Game part 1", etc.)

Wing
Anniversary Falling All Of You Give It All Up More Joy! Laughing Boy
Invisible Future Past Nothing Less
Hammerhead Beautiful Lies Tonight United
Really like the album. I got it in my car for two weeks now and can't wait to see some of the songs live. Imagine More Joy! with fans screaming whooohoooohoohohoho! Or Wing live would be amazing. I think it says something that Wing is loved by many and its produced by Ronson. The guy really knows what he is doing.

My FP top 3 on the podium are:
1. Nothing Less 2. Wing 3. Laughing Boy
Those tracks are just a class above!
In the play offs and fighting for promotion:
4.All of You 5.Hammerhead 6.Falling 7. More Joy
Personally I think it's a really strong album. The only negative for me is I can't say I'm that enamoured with the Moroder tracks right now. guess I would have liked them to have been in the vein of the darker Moroder classics like the Chase

Not a fan of the Moroder tracks. Beautiful Lies is fun in a cheesy Eurovision way but I would have left it as a bonus track. I feel they may have felt obliged to put these on the final album but I could be talking bollocks. The fact that Laughing Boy, a bonus track that rates highly on this board and how on PG, Northern Lights and Valentine Stones also were rated highly, just shows how crap the band are at judging their own work! 😂 I’m not big on Anniversary due to the chorus and Give It All Up is also a bit too EDM sounding for me. I blame the sound of the drums! The snare is too artificial for me on this one.
The rest I love and it’s difficult to pick a favourite. Nothing Less stood out the first for me. It’s a brilliant track. It has a great noir-ish mood about it. Laughing Boy and Hammerhead are also excellent. Those three are pure ear worm for me.

They disappointed me too. I was hoping for something darker and deeper. The ingredients are nearly there. Maybe a Moroder extended remix could remedy that. Something like this (it's not GM, but similar) Personally I think it's a really strong album. The only negative for me is I can't say I'm that enamoured with the Moroder tracks right now. guess I would have liked them to have been in the vein of the darker Moroder classics like the Chase

It wipes the floor with what he’s done for DD. It just proves that the band are just ticking boxes. It seems that Producers are running on empty by the time they get to DD. The Moroder songs are over hyped and DD are saddled with them for eternity.
