[@fionathompson6168]

Always will be a classic to me .....

[@Oscar-rw8kt]

Hybrid is and will be one of my most beloved artists in all the time. This piece was just too ahead for its time.

[@katyisgone]

**Lyrics** It's a little too easy to live and learn But those breaks are scarce So take some time out To look back and see how you fared The right is always the wrong And the short's always the long The hardest thing about refrain Is now I can only save face To deny yourself is so true to form You spend most of your days wishing you were never born To deny yourself is so true to form You spend most of your days wishing you were never born Face down in what you know You'll never come up for air Close the door I've had about as much as I can bear The right is always the wrong And the short's always the long The hardest thing about refrain Is now I can only save face To deny yourself is so true to form You spend most of your days wishing you were never born To deny yourself is so true to form You spend most of your days wishing you were never born

[@rafakordaczek3275]

I feel you mean. There is only one song I listened to more than a thousand times during my lifetime - Formula of Fear. any remix, as well as original mix. There is no way that I will ever get tired of listening Hybrid.

[@digitalfattybuh]

The world wasn't ready for this beat invasion. Don't stop

[@LavaLampBlob]

I remember hearing this in my car on KCRW way back. First thought was "dang! these guys sound like New Order!" Should have known there is only one Hooky, and that's all there ever will be. Second thought was "I absolutely have to find out what song that was as soon as I get back to me computer". Really like the drumming that starts to fade in around 1:55 and then crescendos - very "taiko"-ish.

[@TahoeNevada]

I saw them (with Peter Hook) play at the House Of Blues in Orlando back in ‘03.

I listen to Hybrid while writing scripts. I feel as if it channels my inner writing guru. Amazing feeling.

[@leesmith983]

VinceLA91 ha no way, i used to play their stuff when i were writing screenplays. They definitely get the creative juices flowing!

EPIC TRACK you definetly need more views u earned them ! good job guyz!

[@madmonty1945]

Stumbled across this great track although I do fear there is a hint of new order in there. Nice work

[@jaraoran5291]

why ? "hint of new order in there" I try to understand the whole lyrics in my point of view but i can´t.

[@peterknight3964]

With Peter Hook on bass, it will do

[@MisterOhms]

Peter Hook... Was kinda part of New Order.. lol

[@spursrulelondon]

Love

[@oldgamer1299]

Hook certainly brings a New Order flavour to the track

[@hitachicordoba]

Hook x Hybrid? Yes.

[@MarcusMusique]

love this so much. guitar reminds me so much of New Order! = Happy Dayz! :-)

[@MisterOhms]

Peter Hook of New Order is on the track.

[@TheHankurban]

I love the mismatch of vocals and music!

[@LavaLampBlob]

P.S. the live version that they performed from Maida Vale Studios on Radio 1 (I think?) was dope! Better than the album version, IMHO, as it was a little bit more raw and less polished.

[@bigmoncrief6071]

I remember how much I looked forward to this album, and then how disappointed I was when I heard this first track. Moody teenager lyrics and that bloody awful Peter Hook contribution wedged clumsily into it. There are a few good tracks on Morning Sci Fi but it has none of the style and natural flow of Wide Angle.

[@btown8210]

So why are you here? Its an amazing track. I love the fact every album is so different

[@MisterOhms]

Terrible take..

[@LewisCampbellTech]

This whole album was such a massive disappointment after Wide Angle, which was a classic IMO. This guy is just not a good vocalist.

[@katyisgone]

I adore this guy's vocals

[@katyisgone]

And i prefer this album to wide angle

[@bigmoncrief6071]

Lewis, I seem to be one of the few people commenting who agree with you. You're right, the moment I heard the first few lines of this opening track I knew the album was inferior to Wide Angle. There are a few good tracks (all instrumental, no coincidence) but some real letdowns too. That one with the toe curlingly awful lyric 'cutting the voltage to your power line' still makes me cringe even thinking about it!
