They chose All I want as a best new track, so I'm assuming it's a single as they tend to review official releases.

So I was shopping with my friends today when I finally picked up a physical copy of This Is Happening. I absolutely love it still, my favourite of 2010 thus far for sure.

Are people here still kind of down on it? I love most of the songs and I at least like the ones I don't. Fantastic album.

A friend of mine is really into LCD and he bought a copy when we were at the store the other day. He ranks it as his favorite of the year but I don't think I'd put it that high. Top five for sure though. I like it a lot.

I still can't get over how similar some of the songs are to some previous work of his so I haven't been playing it much. I was hoping hearing them live would change my mind but it didn't. :\

yeah... i'm a HUGE fan of the group but this album underwhelms me. first song is a corker, drunk girls is terrible, rest of the album is fine. only fine. i doubt i'll get a phsical copy (unless vinyl cost comes down qute a bit from £19...)

I honestly don't get the Drunk Girls hate. I think it's a good song, the ending/climax part is actually great.

It's not the best album of the year but it's still pretty good. 'Drunk Girls' is definitely the weakest track on the album, there's nothing really interesting about it at all. It seems like one of those no brainer songs that only sounds good when drunk with your friends. Other than that the rest of the album is great, 'Dance Yrself Clean' and 'I Can Change' being the album highlights. Not as good as Sound Of Silver but a welcome addition none the less.

Sound of Silver < This Is Happening
All My Friends > This Is Happening

I'd say Somebodys Calling Me is a weaker song then Drunk Girls. And no intelligence? Sure people in the background are constantly chanting DRUNK GIRLS or DRUNK BOYS, but lots of Murphys lyrics in that song are rather witty.
