yeah, kind of reminds me of 1984 by Van Halen. Don't know why.

Ok its growing on me.... the Van Halen factor still needs to be toned down though IMO but.... it IS growing on me...

I told you. It gets you on the repeat listenings.

Thx very much TheBang for the download link - it's now on the iPod almost on repeat! It is so upbeat and makes me want to smile & dance

After getting over the initial feeling of 'this doesn't sound like the UW I'm used to' I found myself getting quite into this song on the successive listens, I think Bang is pretty much spot on.

Very happy and feel-good!

fuck me - i've just listened to this - are we back in the 80's????

that being the case - i love it obviously, but if i played this on my radio show - 'fromage' would be mentioned a few times, i believe ...

i can imagine this in a movie soundtrack - like footloose or breakfast club

i love it but its super commercial ....

First off....the recording on that clip is terrific! Did you manage to get the whole show?!?!?!

Secondly...when we heard this at the Joint the first thing we thought of was that the synth sounds just like a theme song from some 1980's cop or lawyer TV show.

Yeah, I definitely felt it was an 80's throwback too. I'm sure it was a very deliberate decision.

Yes agree, very deliberate approach....but I also feel like it's not nearly finished enough yet. I mean, they've played it maybe a handful of times live so far whereas Between Stars sounds finished and they're playing it out like crazy.

As for the Tracker...Bang you are my fucking hero. Now my g.f. can catch the rest of what she missed since the bouncers at the Joint wouldn't let her back in after she went outside because they were being total dicks. She and I both thank you profusely!
