"Maybe Menel has a better voice than Nicholls technically but he didn't manage to embody and express the soul of IQ's music the way Nicholls does."

I absolutely agree with my fellow Pixel Pirate. Technically speaking, Menel is more proficient, but Nicholls is THE singer-lyricist-showman that IQ needs as an integral part of their music.

No, what abut that funny idea of re-recording the Nomzamo-AYSC stuff in a concise format? Here goes a possible tracklist: War Heroes - No Love Lost - Promises [with a Zero Hour-like arrangement] - Nostalgia - Falling Apart at the Seams - NTOC (Resistance) - Common Ground - Human Nature - Wurensh - Nothing at All

How about it?

'Nothing At All' is one of my favorite IQ songs and probably P Menels finest moment in the band.Could Pete do it justice I wonder? Some things are best left untouched.

My favourite Menel IQ song would have to be "Common Ground". Especially since it has probably Mike Holmes greatest solo ever,and that is saying something! It would be interesting to hear what Nicholls would do with it and the rest of the list of Cesar's although I don't think we're ever likely to find out.

Hi, Pixel, the Resistance song has been recorded with Nicholls on lead vocals. It is included in the 'Lost Attic' CD, and it really kicks ass - a hard rock number with a neoprog twist, and Nicholls delivering some furious singing with enthusiasm. Maybe in the original demos Menel gave it his touch, but Nicholls' touch is so special...

My Menel-era fave song is Common Ground, but my fave album is Are You Sitting Comfortably?

I actually knew that "N.T.O.C." is on "The Lost Attic" but I had forgotten. And I agree about "Are You Sitting Comfortably?",at least that it's better than "Nomzamo" which I still think is far too poppy.
