I think the rumors of Room Noises' death are greatly exaggerated. It may not be exactly what WE wanted, but it's still a viable album, complete with a couple of potential hits. I do hope they make a good leap the next time they hit the studio, but I expect that out of any band. I could have sworn everyone would be flipping with joy over this song, but I guess I was wrong. This just goes to prove that you're not gonna please everyone ... Confused

I am flipping with joy, honest. Smile
I really am even though I didn't sound like I was in my last post. I was just critically analyzing the song.
I still like it tons, even if it is not my favorite on the album, and am beyond excited just to be getting another video from Eisley.
I am completely elated. Very Happy

in all honesty, brightly wound is not my favorite song. i like it, after all it is eisley, but it isn't as good as the other songs on the album. i'm still extremely excited that there's going to be a new video because if anything it's going to lead to more exposure for the band.

I love all of Eisley's videos so far. Especially Marvy Things.
I'm sure I'll love this one.

To me, it feels like the 'magic' of Eisley really begins (on Room Noises) with Brightly Wound.

like others have said, it is quite ironic that the two songs Eisley probably wanted on the album least ended up being their singles.
i'm happy they're making another video, but it should have been Golly Sandra.*
i fear the potential of indie media, etc backlash.
i'm just ready for some new recordings/new album/etc.





with me doing the video

I just don't get it ...

And Golly Sandra has NO hope of radio with the pedal steel in it. It won't work. It's a neat addition to the song, but it murded it for the radio, sadly.

So if Plenty of Paper was the single, would we be saying this same stuff?

It's funny how there are just these little tiny things in each of the best songs that make them un-radio-able -- Golly Sandra's pedal steel, Plenty of Paper's organ intro... you know.

Im my opinion, a much more suitable single would have been My lovely.

Brightly wound is okay. But, like Lost at Sea, I skip it easily. Those are the only two songs I can bear to skip too. Every now and then, they're nice to listen to, But, eh.

I'm excited about the video though. Boyd said something about "Sci-fi", so that should be interesting...

It's funny, because I usually start on Brightly Wound when I listen to the CD. Oh well. I find myself half stunned being a minority on this one.

Don't worry Jamie- Brightly Wound is one of my favorites!
I am happy to see it stepping forward- I think once it hits radio it will suck in a lot of new fans.

i don't think the pedal steel is that big of a deal.
Shania Twain stuff gets played on pop radio.
i guess they could do a radio version and just put a Chauntelle lead in it's place.

oh well, there's no use debating it really
.........the record execs have spoken

and they have the heavy hand with money spilling out of it.
