Yeah I'm not really sure either. When I listen to the album I have the intro at first and then the album version as they intended, but I put this extended version on a mix of mine and I love it as a single this way
Now that I hear it all together, seriously, what possessed them to leave it off? Great song as it is, but that intro adds so much. Ugh. This is my favorite band that makes the worst choices.
I remember on my Mmhmm CD when I first found out there was a hidden track by rewinding the first track my mind was blown.
“Don’t Blink” might be the most misleading first single. It almost sounded like a continuation from FANSD, but nope.
Oh snap! The extended intro to Marigold is the pre-gap track off AFF. I just tried it on my CD copy and it worked!
Someone started a petition for a 10-year FANSD tour: https://www.change.org/p/relient-k-...are&utm_term=0fd62290faa64b9c974858d8625369f8 15K is a lot though.
The last thing I would want is a FANSD tour where Matt T is phoning it in. If he doesn’t want to do one, I don’t want it.
To be honest I feel like he’s been phoning it in for a while. I mean the quality was there on the last album for sure but it doesn’t feel like his heart is in it like it used to.
I'd be surprised if that petition got 1,000 signatures. Also, I'm assuming a lot when I say this but I find it difficult to imagine a now-happily-married Matt interested in a tour for a break-up album he wrote 10 years ago. Revisiting those songs night after night would be...something else. Sure, some people in a similar position could do it but I bet some people just wouldn't want to.
