    That perfect bass on top of it all!

    There's something in this track that is so untouchable. The pure energy that they plug into this performance of such a simple concept of roads going everywhere- there is an almost childlike wonder of thinking they all do- balanced off with the chaos of understanding that they almost certainly don't.

    I love the way these guys introduced dissonance to "new wave" music. When they played this song live it received mixed reactions from the audience. Most people couldn't get into the dark chords and Partridges donkey-like delivery. But they played it at every gig because they knew it was great.

    Brutalist pop.

    Only a mind like Patridge could conceive such a wonderful and brutal song ...

      It's more energetic, but it also doesn't have the extra vocalists in the chorus. One other detail is, this version seems to be more in E Standard Tuning. The Album Version's also in E Standard, but in 451 Hz, instead of the standard 440. That means it's tuned sharp, but it's between E and F. I just pinpointed it as well as I could.

      I think it's more muddied

      It does sound better as far as the performance is concerned. I love that single, ropey guitar note played in the bridge. I love this song.

    Am I asleep
    Or am I fast
    You every race
    You first, you last
    Roads girdle the globe
    We all safe in your concrete robe
    Hail mother motor
    Hail piston rotor
    Hail wheel
    Roads girdle the globe
    Am I tied in
    Or do I turn
    Your sacred incense
    You tyre burn
    Steer me Anna
    Am I get there
    When is A, B
    Oil, iron, steel
    You holy 3

    How do they remember all this... And live aswell.. And I love the guitar tones... Wonder what amps they use?.

      Just rehearsal. Andy said that the chords were so weird in this one that he _really_ didn't want to mess it up.
      And yes, the chords _are_ weird. I've seen them, and I've been working on a guitar tab (chart) to this song... Only, it's been in the works for too long. If I ever publish it, it's going to be as complete as I can get it. I think I'm dragging my feet on it, though.
