This demo, though, is way in its infancy. I'd bet the "ay ayyy ayaaaaay ay" are just mark ups to add lyrics later.
you've heard eye on you way way back?
I'm pretty sure an industry mate of his played some tracks for him a few years back.
This. The full story is buried among my posts.
Short version: I've heard 4 songs over the phone, being played on a car stereo. Ever since, any leak or snippet we've got never rang a bell 'till I heard Eye On You. There's still three more I've never heard again.
Disclaimers:
Will never reveal the source. I don't have any files to share, it was played over the phone and of course I didn't record it 1) because it was the right thing to do 2) because it was asked and 3) because it was totally a surprise call. I'm not an insider by any means and am not looking for attention, don't need it, been here long now, have met several members and ex-members (miss you being here, Russ) in person and am close friends and it was never my behavior.

I thought the same thing. Sounds like it could be another ITW.
That's a nice catch.. It fits the "espionage movie" vibe. Wonder if they're from the same batch of ideas.
It seems we have different flows that can even be separated into styles. We've had more traditional, rock oriented songs (IRS, CD, Catcher, Hardschool, Perhaps), then the epics and ballads (Madagascar, TWAT, This I love), then the experimental (Silkworms, Oh My God, Eye On You, State of Grace, If the World, Shackler's).
Don't know if we can narrow it down to dates but there's probably something to it.

Re: Ion U
new here but been enjoying reading this board for several years. dloaded a snippet last weekend that was supposed to be eye on you but wasn't. Someone posted it, lyrics talk about midas touch and he's the kind of man you can't resist. Super strange. Sounds like axl but hard to tell. Almost sounds like something a boyband would do. Now that EOY is out, obviously not the same. Anyone else hear this or know what it is?
