Seems like a song which will be extremely powerful live, like the TWOYL Version of Two Hearted Spider.

The song is interesting, likely not the first official single, but it is not my cup of tea. I believe they released it to give us a taste of e5´s sound.
The tune feels quite atmospheric, yet not as well pulled off as "This Streets Are Still Home To Me (Version 2)". It feels quite banal, as if it was a B-Side and it also lacks a certain power, lacking a climax which I don´t think is necessarily obligatory. Nevertheless Tom´s voice´s darkness fits beautifully, as well as its alternation with the Falsetto. What really gets to me is the instrumental. It looks shallow. It´s simply uninteresting and non captivating. I can´t see them playing this live unless it is a slightly rawer version. I´m not impressed with the new sound, I surely enjoy ITLAOTE, but this song is too electronic, almost DJ-like, while ITLAOTE is unique in the sense that it is a wonderful raw electronic sound which does wonders live. But I know the album is not merely this song. It holds a lot more. And like every Editors song, this one will soon grow on me, although it still feels it did not reach its full potential and its sound is not a personal favourite of mine.
PS - Nor Harm reminds me somehow of Human!

I agree, but I would say its sounds more of Alone+Human.

PS - Nor Harm reminds me somehow of Human! This pretty sums up my feelings ! Does no one else notices that the first notes remind are more or less the same as the first ones of Alone ?
Ok I believe I'm not the only one

The song reminds me more of The Boxer than any other Editors tune.

No you're not! It's very very very similar to Alone But it also reminds me of The Boxer ...and Coldplay's Midnight, but that's probably just me

Sorry everyone! I don't have a general CD player and my laptop was not giving any signs of it being there... Oh well.
I kinda got a 'Midnight' by Coldplay vibe from it as well, although I was way more excited by the Coldplay song. I also got a The National feel from 'No Harm', which is fine.
I think my biggest problem is, if it wasn't Editors - I.e. A band I like a lot - I wouldn't give it many plays. It doesn't grab me at all. Oh well. No harm done.

I hadn't really compared it to Midnight, but now that you mention it I can see the comparison.
