This is your monthly reminder that Not Asking You To Leave is a top-5 song for this band and should have been on EIIKM. If I was going to replace a song on the album with it, it’d probably be Antonia.
It is an amazing song, but from what I recall it had some similarities with another recorded track, which would give a reason to leave it off as a b-side. Can't seem to remember what was the part that made me suspect that.
you fool! it is a great song but I wouldn't say it's Antonia level great. I'd cut Calling All Cops or Where I Belong if I had to cut anything. Not Asking You to Leave and especially The Worst Part are better than those. fool is being used in friendly jest just so you know. I don't actually think you're a fool.
The verses in Where I Belong are way better than any part of Calling All Cops imo. Both are good songs but easily the weakest on one of my favourite albums ever.
lol i love calling all cops. honestly i've never been as hot on eiikm as people here seem to be but it has some of their most fun songs
fell in love without you, cant finish what you started, hello helicopter and the title track are all classics
Where I Belong is far from filler for me. The "chaos in the courthouse" verse constantly pops into my head out of nowhere This Is For Real is probably the song I think is the most overrated and I wish they'd stop playing it at every single show
Where I Belong is one of my favorite MCS songs. The “chaos in the courthouse” verse is one of the best things they’ve ever written.
that takes it from a 10 to a 7 for me, loses all of the energy and fun. not a big fan of the slight changes in melody either.
Listened to EIIKM this morning. Such a damn good album. I got the special edition on vinyl a few years ago and the cover is so much better haha
There’s a few tracks off EIIKM I think are filler for sure but Last Nite and Hello Helicopter are two of my top favorite MCS songs ever.
