Any guesses? All I've heard is the Youtube video, in which the song sounds like it has a ton of potential, but I can't make out much of what he's saying. anybody heard it clearly enough to decipher the words?

    I can't quite hear what he's singing either. Maybe someone who can read lips can tell?

    what i hear(this will be funny when they post the actual lyrics)

    on the rise and
    rise and fall
    what they're sayin is
    nothin left at all

    on the rise and
    catch and fall
    all they're sayin is
    somethin that i don't like

    of the earth

    on the rise and
    rise and fall
    all they're sayin is
    comin back for more

    on the rise and
    here-to-fore
    on the scene is
    somethin i don't like

    of the earth

    on the rise and
    rise and fall
    all they're sayin is
    nothin i don't like

    on the rise and
    rise and fall
    all they're sayin is
    nothin i don't like

    of the earth

    i love Ed's voice when it sing
    "on the rise and
    rise and fall
    in Dublin we all claping and staring.when we listen it for first time..
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
    “..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”

    It was superb, wasn't it? It felt like a mix between Porch and RVM sprinkled with a slab of Neil Young. :)

    thanks for sharing this was a great show. The lights were so great too. So soothing.
    And I love Bruce Lee too. He is a greatthinker too he says "be like water" etc. And how humble he is when he is not fighting :)

    Just found this easter egg of sorts this morning on the deluxe edition, like any PJ song of new martial I really wasn't sure how to take it. Definatley has an uncle Neil vibe to it, but the breakdown in the middle is really out there, in terms of their last record. It's very different. Really excited for the new one, whenever it comes out, if they haven't played all of it live already. :lol:
