This would make a killer b-side to a “Nothing Is As Good As They Say It Is” 7”. Wish they’d put out some 45’s from ‘Latte’! Last 7” I bought from them was “your Fandango” with Todd.
Love sparks. Feel sad recently that they're old though 75 and 78 and won't be able to go on as a band for much longer. Wish I could -20 years from their ages. If they would want that obv. Maybe people are more contented in getting old than I am about them getting old lol. Hopefully.
Hmm I like Veronica lake. Not sure flow wise but I think that love story / love song could have gone this is better. Rubbish song for me that one can't even remember the title.
The Japanese do love their bonus tracks don't they? This should have made the album though. They had 'Check out time 11am' from Hippo a few years ago which in my opinion was the best track on Hippo that never was. Until it was later released at a rather high price I thought. I guess it's like in the 70s when we were treated to such brilliant b-sides but it's only available in Japan which is a pain. At least we have TH-cam but maybe we need to start a petition....lol...
As s/o who prefers 2 listen 2 phys lp formats, this trend of nebulous 'digital bonus' material rather aggravates...in summary, if u'v produced a bloody song fer an album, then find a way 2 make it part of that collection...streaming sucks...BALLS (npi) 😬
It's like a step between 'Sainthood's Not In Your Future' and 'Nothing Is As Good As They Say It Is'😅 I thought of 'Sainthood' too, but the lyrics, what I could hear, took a leap to 'Nothing Is'. Made me think it's a darker pre-stadium to 'Nothing Is'..?🤔
@JaggsyJaggs to me it wouldn't have added something new to the album. Thematically it's close to Nothing Is As Good As They Say It Is and sound wise similar to other songs on the album. It's a good track, don't get me wrong, but speaks for R+R to keep the official album as tight as possible.
I tried to write down the lyrics, but I'm not completely sure if they're correct. There's also a piece missing. So if anyone can add/correct something, please tell me. Edit: I added the missing line.

Soundtrack of our days. I love this so much
This song complements great with all the styles of the album. It would be totally organic in the middle of the record.

This would make a great single!
Very nice track. Sparks just keep getting even better.
Thanks for this public service!
I ordered the Japanese version of the album last week.but I couldn't resist listening to this song before it arrives. Thanks for posting it. 👍
Where did you order it?
Swap this beaut for Veronica Lake to create an even better flow in their incredible Latte album
I couldn’t agree more 👍🏻
Hmm I like Veronica lake. Not sure flow wise but I think that love story / love song could have gone this is better. Rubbish song for me that one can't even remember the title.
Another sublime track from the boys. Thank you for making us aware! 🥰
I love this so much, now I must get the Japanese release of the album 😊
Japan always get extra tracks. It's annoying there's always got to be songs they don't put on albums officially. All decent acts do this.
Sign me up for this track 😊
Thanks for posting! Highly appreciated 💖😻
Thanks for posting this! I love the song.
This is excellent!
Love this so much

Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas ;D
B-sidey?????????? This is brilliant!
Thank you for posting!!
Awesome, thank you! This is a great track, great fit for the album...and much preferable to "Nothing's As Good As They Say It Is".

A bit reminiscent of Sainthood's not in your future, but I like it
It's like a step between 'Sainthood's Not In Your Future' and 'Nothing Is As Good As They Say It Is'😅

Much better than SAINTHOOD....IMOA
Its sparks...and sounds like no.one else..😂..result...
Does anyone have the lyrics?
I don't
WHy just a bonus track ?
Nice one! And understandable decision to keep it as a bonus track and not include it on the official album.
Why?
Too bad !

@@rutkowski1490 It sounds a bit unfinished.
Good enough for the Japanese, apparently. ha ha
Wow, that's a rude comment!
@@girlfromgermany No, it's not meant to be rude.
@@knust2329 But it was. As the Japanese would say, "ファックユー"
@@SexyOoyo Now there's a rude comment. Naughty lifeform you....
More along the lines of the Chinese and the North Koreans.

This is not the world I signed up for
It's not the world I signed up for
It's not the world, it's not, it's not
These are not the times I signed up for
It's not the times I signed up for
It's not the times, they're not, they're not, they're not
Where are all my holidays
Bright'n sunny summer holidays
All my friends are on the summer sand
As we stroll among them, holding hands
And the wild, wild party nights
Where we dance until the morning light
Though deciding what you're gonna wear
Can be such a heavy cross to bear
This is not the life I signed up for
It's not the life I signed up for
It's not the life, it's not, it's not
No one could foresee
That this is how it all would be
But still I have a guaranty right here, right here, right here
Where are all my holidays
Bright'n sunny summer holidays
All my friends are on the summer sand
As we stroll among them, holding hands
And the wild, wild party nights
Where we dance until the morning light
Though deciding what you're gonna wear
Can be such a heavy cross to bear
Where are all the dreams I signed up for
Where are the dreams I signed up for
Where are the dreams I thought, I thought
These are not the times I signed up for
It's not the times I signed up for
It's not the times, they're not, they're not, they're not
La la la la...
Where are all the dreams, bright sunny summer holidays
It's not the world I signed up for, it's not, it's not
Where are party nights where we would dance 'till morning light
It's not the times I signed up for, they're not, they're not, they're not
I think the missing line is “Though deciding what you’re gonna wear…”
Other than that it looks like you got it!
@@donnashimshi4093
Thank you! I'll add it 😊
Thank you!
It’s good, but it does sound a bit b-side-y
