The Magic Whip Reviews

[AdvertBreak]

It's quite strange that on Amazon.com there is only 23 reviews. If it doing as well as it is in America then I'd have expected much more than that already.

Thanks!

*cough*

Yes yes, hat-tip to Jay, who has even more time on his hands.

I've just checked and I have the most out of everyone

How do you check? I remember when the old forum closed down I wanted to check where I was on the highest posters list but you could no longer order it like that.

I was near the top on the old forum with close to 30,000 posts but then the admin deleted a load of threads and everyone's post count went right down. I think I ended with over 20,000 when it was shut down.

I definitely remember being at #17 when I had 7923 posts (before I went back sometime last year) which was the last time I knew how to check although this would be after the older posts were deleted.

Congrats to you too, Master Poster!

Ice Cream Man is one of the best songs on the album and it's incredible live, no way is it a filler!!

I like that the lyrical content is quite sinister juxtaposed (might have been listening to SFA for Friday!) against the simple almost nursey rhyme (in parts) tune. After Mode I found the electronica overlays on album version a bit distracting on first listen but now I really like it and thought it sounded great on the radio.

I remember Jay's old post count being about 7200 in three years whereas here its over 3200 in eight months! because Veikko's is better and Blur have had a new album.

Stats are so fun. I'm a geek.

That's a classic Blur move! And it makes this song more complex and brilliant <3

Sadly, that's exactly the sort of subtlety lost on casual listeners though. 'Oh look, another Blur sing songy lightweight tune.'

Couldn't agree more, I'm loving it!

This old forum talk is all very depressing.


Ok maybe Icecream Man is not filler. I take it back.
