    Had a sleep twitch while settling in to sleep last night - then I had this song running through my head for an hour.

    Fireloque: "Good song, but the Tiësto remix is simply awesome - never listen to the original any longer!" /facepalm

    I'm totally gutted that Chris Urbanowicz has left Editors and concerned to hear it was over musical differences and I'm now left wondering as to what style of music the new album will be.On a brighter note I can't wait to see Editors in Birmingham on June 26th I'd crawl of broken glass to see this band play live again.So all that's left for me to say is THANKS FOR EVERYTHING CHRIS I'LL BE WATCHING YOUR CAREER VERY CLOSELY.

    Niiiice. And I agree, conditionals - that IS a punchy line.

    "I don't think "it kicks like a sleep twitch" has quite the punch that they think it does... " I disagree.
