Eisenhower on Itunes - Lonely Boy

Post: # 15138Post BeatingHippies »

He I was pokin round on itunes and saw that if you buy Eisenhower on there it comes with Lonely Boy. I already have the album so I probably won't buy it, but has anyone heard it? How does it rank up with the rest of the album?

It's not my favorite song so my opinion is obviously biased but I bought the album on iTunes (the moment it came out) and was dissapointed by Lonely Boy. It might grow on me, you never know but I have to say it is by far my least favorite of the recent tunes and the studio version didn't do anything to change my mind.

when the album first got added to itunes, you could purchase lonely boy separately. i think its a pretty cool track.

yeah, I like it as well. I usually listen to it right after the rest of the album, it conveniently fits well as a closer right after Paper Birds.

dan, i've noticed that you've developed a knack for one liners.

I haven't had a lot of time to sit down and spend time on sliplive lately. I prefer songs like chasing rabbits over a lonely boy, yet there is a chilling feeling or haunting feeling that i get from both of them. Also Cut from the Cloth is amongst them too.
