Good first song, then the rest of the album is incredibly boring and predictable. Zero inspiration.

I had the same experience, but then I heard this song out of the blue somewhere, and now have a different take. Check it out. I think Ringo does drums on it, could be wrong.

You know, lyrics never enhance a bad song for me, so this one doesn't work for me either. Boring and uninspired like the rest of the album. And the first two lines of the chorus were blatantly stolen from "Blowin' in the wind".

Not their best. Jim

I should stand up for this album as New Order were the first band I ever loved but, yes, compared to Low Life and Brotherhood, PC&L is not that fantastic.

As you loved the band I would imagine that "not that fantastic" would be the equivalent "an abomination of an album" and "a waste of vinyl" to a non lover!!

sorry !

sorry !

The album's worst crime was that it did not have 'Blue Monday' on it.

Timeblue: Was Tom Daley 'Takin' a dive'? Aug 9, 2024 9:02:23 GMT

Eloise: unomusette, you are so right about all of us being a tiny bit from Birmingham. I can't tell you how many times I have had the Birmingham blues and wished I could be there. Aug 29, 2024 15:01:23 GMT

Horacewimp: Livin’ in Birmingham we are usually blue, it’s from the cold weather 🌦️ Aug 29, 2024 20:21:46 GMT

Eloise: Horacewimp, do you get a lot of snow? Aug 29, 2024 20:50:10 GMT

Horacewimp: No not really, usually get some snow once or twice a year, plenty of nights with a frost though. Aug 29, 2024 20:53:29 GMT

eloneen: We've got nasty weather here in Central NC- rain, high winds, possibility of tornadoes until 6PM - nothing dangerous so far here. There are tens of millions of people affected by this storm. Stay safe! ::animated-smileys-hug-008:: Sept 27, 2024 14:34:21 GMT *

eloneen: Lots of devastation elsewhere in our state and across the Southeastern US

, but we're OK.

Sept 28, 2024 17:32:11 GMT *

Horacewimp: Glad you are okay eloneen stay safe and I hope the situation improves soon. Sept 28, 2024 18:09:43 GMT

BIuebird: I'm so glad you're okay eloneen! I still have yet to hear from some of my friends in Georgia and Florida, I'm worried about them.

Sept 28, 2024 19:30:26 GMT

eloneen: Thanks Horacewimp and BIuebird. BIuebird Let's hope they're all safe. 🙏 Sept 28, 2024 23:51:56 GMT *

Eloise: Glad you're OK, eloneen! Oct 1, 2024 18:28:07 GMT

vlogdance: Thank heaven you're all OK, eloneen. These Helenes, nothing but trouble... Oct 2, 2024 10:36:39 GMT

eloneen: ::m1822::I know, right? Oct 2, 2024 17:25:31 GMT

BIuebird: Is anyone else enjoying a rare southern display of the northern lights tonight? So glad I got to see them this time, it was all cloudy skies in Delaware last time they were visible! Oct 11, 2024 0:09:18 GMT

Horacewimp: I’ve looked a few times in the U.K., but never seen them. The horrible light pollution from Birmingham centre doesn’t help. Oct 11, 2024 16:28:12 GMT

BIuebird: Aww, I'm sorry to hear that! Light pollution will certainly obscure it. We are fortunate to live in a more rural area where there isn't too much light pollution. Oct 11, 2024 17:07:03 GMT

BIuebird: It's a trade off, though, because the nearest grocery store is about a 20 minute drive away! We just got a new Target on Main Street, and everyone is so excited, you would think it was some earth-shattering event. m0168

unomusette: I'd love to experience them too but never been lucky even when others nearby have spotted them

Apparently it's quite hard to see them with the naked eye, you need to be looking through a camera or other type of lens? Oct 12, 2024 20:17:04 GMT

BIuebird: Yes, it's definitely easier to see it with a camera or your phone. We were lucky here in that it was bright enough for me to see the pinks with the naked eye, so I knew where to point my phone! Oct 12, 2024 20:56:31 GMT

billywol: Saw Carole King there some years ago. After that I swore never again. Unless you are minted you cant see a thing. Standing, expensive and rain- not for me. Just praying that more Uk dates are announced. Any rumours ? Oct 28, 2024 14:43:06 GMT
