Not as good as a leak, but still awesome.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

hmm but i wonder if this is the b side they are playing? i mean i know there saying the title track, but isnt the single out in Ireland tomorrow? and isnt the b-side on that single NLOTH 2? which is not the actual song that opens the album.

So this could be the b-side

[Sicy]

What time for PST CA ... anyone?

 

[martin jaubert]

tomorow NLOTH song on the radio???? great

 

[Dragonfave]

what time for pst ca ... Anyone?

4 am pst

 

[Sicy]

4 am pst

Oh.. great.

 

[2861U2]

I believe that translates to 7 Eastern, 6 where I live, and 4 out in CA for you, Sicy. Someone should doublecheck though.

 

[mikal]

Yes!!!!!

 

[PowerSurge]

So they're playing the album cut or the single cut?

I thought the single cut was a remix.

So this means either:

A: they have the entire album already

or

B: it will be the next single and they have THAT already

or

C: something I haven't quite figured out yet.

 

[bcrt2000]

No
No Line on the Hor-i
i-zon
No
No Line

 

[mariorivas]

I think here in CA we're about 8 hours behind, so 4 AM...

Hey, it's a good way to wake up

 

[mikal]

maybe they want us to hear the original version that appears on the album before we hear the remix.

 

[LemonMelon]

OMG.

This is the track I most want to hear from the album right now. Fucking fuck yeah.

 

[2861U2]

Dang it! And I have a test tomorrow too! I need my sleep!

 

[stealthboy]

I'm guessing the B-side version. I'll be recording this assuming the stream doesn't cut for non-Ireland people or something.

 

[mikal]

OMG.

This is the track I most want to hear from the album right now. Fucking fuck yeah.

exactly! i don't have the 30 second clips separated on my ipod, and i find myself constantly hitting my back button so i can hear this song again.

 

[MMP]

OMG.

This is the track I most want to hear from the album right now. Fucking fuck yeah.

[x2]

YEA H OH FU CK Y EAH

 

[Angtre01]

No
No Line on the Hor-i
i-zon
No
No Line

Hah! LOVE IT

 

[AtomicBono]

I thought that too ... I have to confess I find myself agreeing with almost every post you make.

I'll take either, but I'd rather hear the album version first. Who knows though, maybe the alternate cut is better

 

[Irishteen]

I wish people would stop referring to NLOTH 2 as a remix, it's a song in its own right, not a remix

 

[stealthboy]

maybe they want us to hear the original version that appears on the album before we hear the remix.

That's a brilliant point. Hadn't thought of that but I think you might be right!

 

[Roland of Gilead]

Holy Fuck Yeah!

I don't care if its "1" or "2" we get, we get a whole song!!!

 

[AtomicBono]

exactly! i don't have the 30 second clips separated on my ipod, and i find myself constantly hitting my back button so i can hear this song again.

Yeah I have an iPod dock which I use as an alarm, and I always set it to the beginning of the 30 sec clips... so every morning I wake up to "No, no line on the horizon...no, no line"

 

[LemonMelon]

This does make a lot of sense. I was wondering how they would work around this situation, and I guess leaking the album version outright is an option.
