The nine minute version is proof there is a god and that he loves us.
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Agree with that FC. Silver's all right though. Seven Seas is a stunner to be honest,
and the video's pretty hot too!!

I might have to agree. Song is amazing, love that little electric drum/snare in it. It's little Bunnymen touches like that, that are missing from the new stuff. Cool lyrics, too.

As for HUH. I'd have to go -

Over The Wall
Show of Strength
The Cutter

Those are the few songs they pull the stops out for. Killing Moon because it makes grown men weep.

If making grown men weep is a criteria for greatness then Proxy must be up there.

I think his voice is fantastic with Electrafixion. For me, it went downhill after "Evergreen".
