OK, so I didn't put this up last night, because I thought for sure they would play Diamond Jigsaw tonight on the broadcast and everyone would hear it. Well, they didn't, so here is Diamond Jigsaw from Vegas. Enjoy!

Karl plays guitar on this song. You can hear him come in on the second repeat of the synth line at the beginning. I think they had some problems with the song, so the intro is actually a lot longer than it would normally be.

Thank you so much!

I was very sad that they didn't play DJ!

This track should be released whenever the boys are happy with it... it could be a Born Slippy phenomena!

Single release, never released on an album style of BS!

And here is the perfect cover for the single: http://www.underworldlive.com/home/0...e2/090806d.jpg

I think the energy on the bad/distorted live recording in Torino of DJ has something really special!

I hope we get another live copy of it -hint-hint!

Well, hmm, i don't know...

Excited as i am to hear new UW material (thx TB for the quality recording!), i'm just not feeling this one. It seems, well, dated. It could have been on Underneath the Radar or Change the Weather. There are some beautiful and interesting elements, but the song structure and upbeat main hook seems rather "synthpop", and not the UW we've been used to since Dubno (sure, there are a few pop-ish tracks from that album and the proto version, but not the lion's share). Maybe it's a nostalgia sort of track? Going back to where things started?

Maybe in a few more listens, this will warm me up.

This is such a fucking tune, man.

Reminds me of Prince's 'I Wanna Be Your Lover' for some reason.

Blinding. Let's 'ave the new album, please?

What the *fuck* is that?

I mean, I quite like it, but somehow that just feels wrong. It's like a song, not a tune.

I wonder if they'll put it out as a 7"? maybe the B-side for Between Stars

I wasn't feeling it at first, but now I like it. Though this is only a fan recording so there may be multiple changes to it.

The intro is pretty good until the "peep" sound disappears and that horrible synth starts not to mention the singing.

Dated? .....ha..ha..coudnÂ´t say it better. They did something similar with Between the stars latest.
Multiple changes? ....Ok guys is this a joke or something?

The song certainly sounds like a pre-Dubno release in some ways (certainly lyrically). But it's so much better than anything they were even capable of making then, which isn't all that surprising. It's so uplifting and the lyrics are still the cut-and-paste masterpieces we all love.

Speaking of which, here's my best stab at the lyrics:

Does it hurt
That you finally found yourself
And does it hurt
That you crawled out of your shell
Black carpet from my mood
Come let me shine
Lonely sweet love come on you
Give me your time
Don't look at me like a tourist
The dark sky (?)
Outside alone and all the signs
Alone and all the signs
Alone and

Does it help
That you finally found yourself
And does it help
That you crawled out of your shelf
I wanna wake up in a better place
Take me in your care
Lonely and *cough* horny in the dark
There's someone there
And there's a white stretch limo parked out
A single line
Premium tequila
Diamond jigsaw makes me feel fine

Does it help
That you finally found yourself
And does it help
That you crawled out of your shell
Can you hear me can you hear me calling
When the moon is on
I wanna feel I wanna feel surrounded
Lying in the dark
And there's a white stretch limo parked out
A single line
Premium tequila
Diamond jigsaw makes me feel fine

Does it help
And does it help
And does it help
And does it help
