the four and a half minute intro is a bit much.

Version on Jonquil's album so much better

Partly but not all down to intro.

Coincidentally, first song I ever heard that was interrupted by good old Alison Bramble! Wow.

I found that insanely annoying

It's not even a very good introduction.

And the final song ends really abruptly. Which I find annoying too.

Everything in between iis perfect though! :)

    But no idea why.

- I thought this too
  
  But it turns out my itunes just cut 5 seconds off the end of the song when I imported it.

  for their next album which is going to be a "drone-pop" opus.

its nice if you're in the mood to sit down and listen to an album

but annoying if i'm putting on as a distraction on the bus or something. i find myself fast-forwarding it now as it negates the whole point of listening to music in that situation.

album as a whole though - great!

- I think it gives reason to use
  
  'skip when shuffling' on itunes.
  Especially if you cycle everywhere.
