This four-song single from
Urban Hymns is bookended by two versions of
Richard Ashcroft's "Bittersweet Symphony" -- the album version and the radio edit version. In between, the
Verve-written "Lord I Guess I'll Never Know" and "Country Song" show the two-year hiatus did little to warp the band's ability to play together. Both groove along on a smooth bassline and hang on the backbeat until the two-guitar attack of
Nick McCabe and
Simon Tong turn them into psychedelic swirls reminiscent of "Endless Life." ~ Brian Horgea, All Music Guide
