Obviously you guys can't read the lyrics since this is an instrumental :p However feel free to make up a line or two for fun. :)
 
The song never really did something to me. Maybe it was a bit too ambient, too disjointed. It sounds more like a soundscape than a musical piece (but maybe that was the intention ;)). Oh well, you can't like everything about your favourite band, can you. And at least that single (Miss Sarajevo) had that awesome live version of One and a fun Zoo Station remix (although not named as such).

C ya!

I've never heard of this before. Was it a b-side or Passengers-related?

Yes. :)

It was a b-side to Miss Sarajevo.

Sorry to say this, and I can get into a lot of experimental music, but 70% of that whole Passengers thing was crap. Sorry....to my opinion it was a big misser.
 
"Viva Davidoff" is one of the songs that non-Passengers fans will skip. I like it for what it is. Nice ambient piece of music. Quite abstract. Classic Eno.

Very weird, very different, and I feel you need to listen to it through headphones to really capture the atmosphere.

I personally like it.
