Oh. To me it sounded like "all of the love that was left behind is gone" btw.

Woah, that's absolutely gorgeous. No wonder Noel was so enthusiastic about that track. I think the Wild Wood comparisons are adequate, but there's also the kind of hopeful melancholy only Noel can express so well. If the album version sounds as sparse and intimate as the live recording, this might be the best opening track since RNRS. Fuck, this album is going to be amazing. Whoa... was this higher quality than the first recording? It's off Soundcloud now... I didn't get to hear the recording when it was posted the first time. I can tell you the sound quality was pretty bad and I could barely make out the lyrics ('the riverman wants only the girl who electrified his soul' ??) but it was enough to hear the chords, melody and solos. And they were brilliant in my opinion.

ITT: nerds saying it's weird seeing Noel with a guitar.

Could've fitted easily into Stanley Road.

Still have not listened to Riverman. This is easier than I thought it would be. The reviews actually help me from not listening as I want to listen to the album version first.

I listened to it once and I swear I've been singing the damned song the whole day. It's like the siren's song: one listen and you're lost. I'm so desperate to listen to it again I'm playing it on guitar now, making up the words

What a beautiful song. It's always like the first time when I listen to it. One of the best songs in history.

Is it weird that the thing I'm most curious about is if Jeremy Stacey is going to dress up like a droog this tour?

This was recorded right?
I was expecting to see clips by now - especially in the absence of any radio performances...

I'm beginning to think this gig never really happened.
