Title: Fireal or Fireal/Swords?
Post by: Sushi-X on Mar 24, 2011, 06:09 AM
It's something I've been wondering about for a while now. How come on Adrenaline it's titled "Fireal" but on the Live EP and the bootleg Lighting Strikes it's titled "Fireal/Swords"? What's the swords part about? And which one is the official title?

Then why do they write fireal AND swords on their setlists, when fireal is in the set, even when it is not followed by seven words. I'm with everyone else, i always thought it was the name for the second half of the song, which makes sense because even though it flows with fireal, it has no real musical connection to it and never goes back to the chorus, verse, or anything.

Never heard of this "xo single", what is that?

Enlighten us since you seem to have some special information all us retards are missing.

Don't mind him. He has a habit of joking around. "XO" is just a 30 sec sound clip that was on the Enhanced portion of the S/T.

Well now I know why the "Swords" is added to the Fireal. Thanx for the replies guys

Nah, XO is a piano song Chino came up with, à la FYIHYD, but was never released.


Back when this live CD came out, the track was named Fireal/Swords, and yes, Swords refers to the second part of Fireal, the mellow part. They never came up with that, they actually didn't even know that this live import had been released and they were pretty pissed off about that. They didn't come up with that " Swords " second part thing, no idea who did. When they write Fireal on a setlist, it's never written Swords.

When you see Swords on a setlist now, it means S(even)words, yes. But these two Swords have nothing to do with each other, it's a coincidence.
