I want a studio version of this song, now! I'm tired of the crappy live versions from youtube that I've been listening to. =/

why? I even love Stay the Night for than Cigarettes and Valentines

Because it was unique for us in Dublin. No one had heard it before. That's why I want to be greedy and keep it for myself :ninja:

someone - I think it was Bastard_of_1967, whom I affectionately call "bastard," ... at least, he thinks it's affectionate :P ... said this should be the song of the month, and I took that literally).

All is forgiven at least as far as this here bastard is concerned, I am three weeks behind on listening to the podcasts myself and I really really want to hear this week's!! Can't tell you how bummed I am that I missed y'all for the talkbacks a couple weeks ago.......and if it wasn't for my sister getting married this weekend up in Maine I'd be in NYC again to see St. Billie in a HEARTBEAT!

Just something I noticed the other night, the lyrical theme of Cigarettes and Valentines and Stay the Night seem pretty similar to me. The first line of C and V is "I don't want to go back home, I don't want a kiss good night" and this to me relates to Stay the Night as they seem to both be songs about being with your significant other, and how hard it is saying goodbye to them even for a little while.

Could it be an indication towards the general theme of the next album, or is it in fact just a complete coincidence??

well if Stay The Night is actually from the same time as C&V maybe they are related lyrically. Wasnt it around then that Billie and Adie were having problems, or am I getting my eras mixed up? :ermm:

I'd love to know more about Stay The Night - I asked Jason Freese about it but he didnt really seem to recognise which song I was talking about.

but he did remember the group of fans during soundcheck at Marlay Park :wub:

Sounds like 1039 days. Good, good stuff.

Thought that was in between Nimrod and Warning, but I'm not sure they also had problems around C&V.

Anyway, that's funny, I never realized how the songs are lyrically related/similar.
