Very much agree Earmon. I think I learnt more about the inner workings of Pulp when Mark was promoting I'm With Pulp over the past 6 months with the various podcasts / radio segments / web interviews. Especially the Spaceman 3 and Cat Power connections. Loved that!

Yep, for such a "quiet" member all these years, it's been brilliant to hear and read Mark's opinions of which he has many.

Ok so just back home after the recording. The one song they did was Spike Island NEW SINGLE NEW SINGLE but no release date given.
He missed his cue to start singing so he stopped and apologised, then they had to do two takes, the first time you could see his green wristband so that got cut off

Interview was some good, some ok. Loads of mention of britpop which I know he hates. Jonathan Ross was asking the other guests what they thought of Pulp, Martin Freeman wasn't very specific but went on about how Pulp did their own thing, I don't think he was a big fan tbh he was more mod back then wasn't he.

Good bits - spoke about how he proposed in a traffic jam, he'd been thinking about it in mexico but for whatever reason he didn't then in the traffic jam it was well there is time here. Spoke about his wedding too in the circus. It was cute

He couldn't say much about album track listing he looked up at his manager but could mention that one of the tracks was Farmers Market, then there was chat about mundane song titles. Album out in June. Showed a pic of the cover, it's called More as we all know. Simple cover the 4 of them in the distance, pic of scenery taken by Jarvis in Iceland.

More chat about the fall out of the window, with actions. And the lederhosen story. The lederhosen one was from a talk about fashion and Jarvis said I know what you're alluding to I've told this story before but went through it again in very good humour. Window story was from Jonathan Ross asking a question about a pic shown of Jarvis in a wheelchair on stage, you know the one. Again he said something like I've told this before but it was fun to watch

He also spoke about Jason writing the music for Spike Island and Jason had said something about being there, I can't remember what but it has gone into the lyrics. He said it's the second song he's written inspired by Spike Island and he'd not been at the gig. I had no idea that Sorted for Es and Wizz was inspired by a girl he knew telling him about dealers going round the gig saying sorted for es and wizz so that was cool

I got into the green room I saw Nick Mark and Jarvis at different times but didn't go bother any of them. A few folk got their picture with Jarvis.

Thanks for the update!

Sounds as though the "comedic" bits of Jarvis' life were researched/scraped for public entertainment. Pretty reductive and shallow, probably reminded Jarvis why fame is horrible.

So the front cover isn't the Andes and Jason wrote the music to Spike Island huh? Interesting!

Anyone see it? A triumph I think! Like the radio edit, there was some judicious redacting of the live performance of Spike Island but that would have helped keep more eyeballs on the entire thing.

Jarvis acting-out the window-fall story was great and the guests and audience seemed to find it amusing. The lederhosen stuff must have got cut. All-round, Pulp should be happy with that. Social media might be cruel cvnts but pay them no heed. Pulp Live On!

Enjoyed that. Good stories, good responses and a good performance.

Still trying to come to terms with the fact I can't reliably name who everyone is in Pulp these days while watching them perform!

Interesting that it's not Mark playing the most distinctive guitar on this.

I guess if Jarvis seems to be making a thing of Jason having written it, he must have done so on the guitar.

No Emma, I presume its two of the Elysians on violins. Their backing harmonies are a really nice touch.

Yeah nice performance, also most look like they dont want to be there biggrin

But a good one for people in their 60s. 

The other guy on guitar is Jason Buckle ? 

Weird without Steve i gotta say.

they don't want to be there, yeah, or Pulp keep its energy for a bigger audience.

I hope Jarvis can still jump without breaking his legs, I don't want to see him falling on stage.

still not "big" fan of Spike Island, something is missing, maybe the chorus is not as rich as the previous big hits

they can't play with it, distort or variate the chorus enough to break the monotony of the structure.

To come back after 24 years with this is a bit disappointing. I prefer Background Noise but it has the same problems.

I want Got to have Love as a second single, please. There's much more energy in it.

It's a bit harsh, of course they wont have the energy to pull this of live the same way they did. Even in 2012 when i saw them live, Jarvis had trouble maintaining the energy during the whole gig, he was out of breath mid-gig. So now... 

But the studio version is spot on. Jarvis vocals are amazing, its not too modern, not too retro sound. This is a good one. But the "big" single is always the 2nd one. It will be Got to have Love no doubt. 

We gotta accept that at 60, they just cant deliver a record like DC, or TIH. No artist has made they groundbreaking record at that age. If it's strong and well recorded, this is already a win for me. It's not like we have so many great records years after years lately.
