Ok, this is pretty good!

ASIT was one of those songs that I didn't like live. In the studio, the backgroud MADE the song, totally.

Fine production. Fresh vocals.

Just great!

I'm not really feeling it. It has no dynamic. It's the same thing over and over. Maybe it will grow on me.

it cuts off abruptly at 3:33. I wonder if this is one of the tracks that will have the "instrumental" bit or whatever was mentioned for the EP.

abruptly? 3:20-3:33 is a fade out and it ends almost in silence

it's not bad. i don't know if someone else is doing background vocals for the "it's somewhere that you gotta be" part, but that person sounds like they actually have emotion in their voice. i like that he's experimenting with new sounds though.

this is significantly better than widow, at least. i'd put it next to song for a son - 6.5/10

I haven't really had time to thoroughly listen to this version of the song but off the bat it seems to be better then widow, still not great but leaves me wanting to hear the next song

I can say I actually like this without much equivocation, instead of the "Well, it's not that bad" reaction I had to Widow. This keeps everything that worked about the song when it was played live and uses the production to add layers underneath (unlike Widow, where the song got utterly drowned and murdered by the shit they added). The sitar and the psychedelic sounding keys really enhance the song, IMO.

listening on headphones this is much better and the vocals seem somewhat lower in the mix and a little closer to Billy 1.0 vocal stylings.

Sorry, didn't mean it cut off abruptly at 3:33 - yes, there is the lengthy silence and what I meant is "is it going to be extended a bit on the EP?"

Definitely way better than Widow and I love the vocal melody but I would have really preferred a violin rather than these synths he's using at the moment. Bit of a missed opportunity imo. Still its free and its pretty good.

Not too bad. I feel the sitar is pretty pointless though, and a bit too token psychedelic/ new age if you know what I mean.

Not bad, the 2nd best song after Song For A Son. I do feel that what has been released is so much better than anything that was on Shitegeist, Definitely more emotion to the songs and i am glad he has ditched the over layering of his voice. Listening to A Stitch In Time again right now and i do think it's an enjoyable tune.

Well... bah... meh... 's ok. I just don't like this fake Jethro Tull on LSD while being anal raped by the Eagles vibe.

And surely that drumming is much better now.

Quite pleasant. The stream kills the song, download sounds 10x better. A million times better than WWMM.

I agree about the lack of dynamics, can't help it would of been better to start off a bit quieter and build up the backing instruments throughout the course of the song
