Here are the lyrics to the song in case anyone was looking. The band posted them up about a week ago, I think. There's a Hot Water Music reference in the song.

Have you seen my hands, just look at ‘em shake.
And the song just keeps on repeating, drop the needle again.
And I dance with your ghost. But that ain’t the way…
I can’t move on and I can’t stay the same.
And all my friends say…

“Hey, turn the record over.
Hey, I’ll see you on the flip side.
There you go, turn the key and engine over…
Let her go, let somebody else lay at her feet.”

Have you seen my heart, have you seen how it bleeds?
And the nights are so long, baby, out here in the deep.
The tick, ticking of hours lonely… I hear the alarm.
I used to hear when she would sleep in my arms,
But “Better Sense*” says…

”Hey, turn the record over.
Hey, I’ll see you on the flip side.
There you go, turn the key and engine over…
Let her go, let somebody else lay at her feet.”
And all my friends say…
”Hey, turn the record over.
Hey, I’ll see you on the flip side.
There you go, turn the key and engine over…
Let her go, let somebody else lay at her feet.”
Where you used to be…
where you used to be.
Where you used to be, here with me.

*”Better Sense” by Hot Water Music - Forever and Counting."

Is it out on the european itunes store yet ? I can't find it here (french itunes store). They are pretty quick when it comes to adding shitty music, but it feels like no one cares about the gaslight anthem here...

Damn I hate this country !

I like the roofs on your country's houses, that makes up for many of its flaws in my eyes, just thought I'd say...

The band said there will be an iTunes presale soon where you will receive 45 as an "instant gratification" for preordering the album. You get it for free I believe.

Okay thanks Jeremy ! I'm listening to it on repeat, (I downloaded the soundcloud stream). This song is really addictive, I have listened to it on repeat for like 2 hours or so !

My favorite part is when he sings the "There you go/Let her go" part. Gets me every time.

That's pretty cool, but who's the fifth guy? They also need to switch the Telecasters back to Les Pauls.

this is going to be my favourite album of all time. there, I said it.

Emil, I haven't watched what was posted, but the "fifth guy" you were asking about was probably Ian Perkins (who Brian did the Horrible Crowes album with). it looks like he might be the "unofficial" fifth member for the live shows now.

If all the other songs have that powerful, feel-good vibe about them like 45, then I can probably say the same thing! The only song that I have put on repeat as much as that song upon release would be Skumfuk or Screaming Bloody Murder and I don't track The Gaslight Anthem as well as I do Sum 41 because I don't have a Gaslight forum to frequent!

Anyway, whether or not Sum 41 come to Canada again to do a show at least I have The Gaslight Anthem to look forward to in October (with Rise Against and Hot Water Music)!

you lucky wanker. I'm still waiting for them to announce their UK tour plans. if the support is as good as that then I will be one happy camper.

On July 24th The Gaslight Anthem will release their new full-length album, “Handwritten,” on Mercury Records. A deluxe edition will contain 3 bonus tracks.

Here's Side 2 of the "45" single, a cover of Tom Petty's "You Got Lucky"

also, i didn't just notice this, but thought i'd mention that the broken record has two "hidden" faces.

haha, I've only just noticed that!

Post by **Jeremy Kill** » Mon May 28, 2012 11:28 pm

I didn't notice it until about a week ago when I was Googling pictures of the single cover. Super cool, dude!

Haha It's not hidden! It is really quite obvious!

There are some really awesome videos up on the bands Vevo-page. Live versions of both Drive and 1930.
