It’s okay I’m happy you’re coming out of the shadows. I’m of the opinion that disliking music sucks, I’d rather love everything I hear. No benefit to disliking a song. So even if Jen ain’t my thing, happy to see people actually do like the song after all these years of seeing nothing but bad on it. Haha
But for real though, we need a new b-sides collection. I know a lot of them are attached to the ends of Deluxe albums on streaming services already, but it would be really cool to have an "album" with songs like Be Sensible, Open Bar Reception, When I Want, etc. Could even make it a physical release with the singles from the last few years included. Take my money.
I keep hoping bands like Jimmy will receive the super ultra deluxe box set treatment older legacy bands get…give me outtake #4 of Kill and other things I never knew existed.
Fun song! I liked it on first listen, just a fun pop song. Don't think it belongs on Futures but could see it on Chase This Light, though I know it's from the Futures sessions.
Would actually love a Futures-era to present day 20-year b-sides/singles collection from them. If I could get “Open Bar Reception” on wax I might levitate.
so what was up with them dropping one incredible song two yrs ago then not following up with anything else
Is there an actual high quality version of Open Bar Reception anywhere? All the versions I've ever heard don't have the best quality compared to the other songs from that era. Love the song though.
IT DOES IN OUR HEARTS let me know if you want me to send you the song, it is incredible - one of my absolute favorites by them honestly
While we're on the topic, anyone have a high resolution copy of the single's artwork? Everything I can find online is stretched and skewed.
