Why is this song hyped? Do we know it's good? How many have heard it?
It's hyped because the people who have heard it (basically a few insiders plus the people who went to a US fan convention about ten years ago) say it's the best unreleased thing the band did, especially Dennis' vocal.
I've not heard it, but from Adam Marsland's cover version, it's (to my mind) a very good, but not truly great, song, about on the same level as Barbara. But apparently, from those who have heard it, the performance is what makes it special.
We'll see in a little over two months...
Cool! I think Barbara is the best DW song and better than 99,9 % of BB's output. I just listened to the Marshland cover and even if it sounds Dennis-y the melody is not that great. The verses are OK, but the chorus is lacking something.

It's made loads of hypothetical Surf's Up fantasy tracklists over songs people have actually heard so it must be amazing

It came to me quickly - I've thought the same thing many times before in other threads ;D

I've made a point of not listening to the Adam Marsland version coz when I first listen to the song I want it to be completely 100% fresh. To me, already knowing what to expect slightly would spoil the moment. I'll go back and listen to AM's version once I've heard the original.
