[kj] ESS: the best single in decades?

Hm yes, I agree. The best single in ages. Obviously, a single is a
promotional tool - it's meant to reach people that are not familiar
with the band. I did like Hosannas, but was it a good single? No way.
Seeing Red? No way. Loose Cannon was ok I guess. I really like this
one - good idea to show off Jaz can actually sing...
