Bangster of Goats Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I love the return of the classic Neil ride pattern starting at 2:50. I think I remember reading that Nick had been bugging Neil since forever to bring that back, ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slack jaw gaze Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Love the contrasts. If they don't play this live, I quit my job and become a carnie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReflectedLight Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 wouldn't surprise me one bit if they left out carnies and played wish them well instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alchemical Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 This is really underrated. I don't see why it's almost unanimously in everyone's bottom half of the song rankings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losingit2k Posted June 15, 2012 Author Share Posted June 15, 2012 Has anyone noticed the hint to TSOR on alex's guitar part during the verses or during the " Sometimes the Angels punish us by answering our prayers" part. listen closely its there!

Rush Cocky Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 QUOTE (losingit2k @ Jun 4 2012, 10:48 PM) Carnies is such a little gem. This song rocks and moves! Its hard and melodic. Neil's ride during the lead is Classic! I agree it is a gem. I'm listening to it now. Love the subtle keyboard additions throughout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionDetector Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 The 'bridge' section in this song is fantastic. With that said, this one has been a tougher one for me to get into overall. Still a good song...but not amongst my favourites on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarkus406 Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 First couple of listens were like "hmm this could be good" Next couple of listens were like "damn i like this!" Now it's just like "f**k YEAH CARNIES!! CREEPY-ASS SHIT! " I really dig the kids going "YEYYY!" in the beginning, it's so creepy with all the organ music and the weird sound effects. Good scary karn-EVIL vibe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

losingit2k Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 There's a part of the song that Geddy yells in the background "Whoa" with a glissando going up then down as if he was rding a rollercoaster which is fabulous! I love that part! It comes in during the bridge at 3:28. Brilliant. This album is just full of these little great parts, I can't wait to here it live!

len(songs) Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 (edited) Is there a hidden message at 2:10-2:12 after "Such a dangerous device" in the right channel? I heard unintelligible speech listening with headphones. Can anyone try and isolate this? Edited May 11, 2014 by len(songs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
