Just so love Wire

[@Devito46]

Beautiful song. Gilbert wrote it... Miss him at Wire.

[@gabeuop79]

Awesome! The bass reminds me of the Joy Division song "Colony." No doubt Wire was an influence on Ian Curtis and the gang - and probably even the other way around. Thanks for posting.

This is ace!

This sholud actually be titled "Forty Versions/Former Airline" since that's what they play starting at 4:11.

[@forsakengardens]

It is an enchanting song but i believe it actually emerged from the vortex of Mr Newman's mind as opposed to Mr Gilbert's cerebrum. Read it somewhere once.... Gilbert is a big loss to wire, an abrasive component has been excised from the from the wire sound.

[@Mixtil22]

Have to agree with Mike Thorne here - Wire are better on record than live because they play everything faster live. That's fine on the more typically punk songs, but on 40 Versions it just dilutes the impact.

Bearded German at :09 wishes he was somewhere else.
