Those are my favorite tracks too. I think Pieces of Paper is my favorite track folowed closely by One Day I Slowly Floated Away. I like the little synth thing at the beginning of Pieces of Paper and it made me sad that they didn't repeat it anywhere else in the song. But yes great tunes. _________________ "The Internet... that's the one with e-mail, right?" |

i think it's funny no one's mentioned I Wasn't Prepared OR Memories. anyway. since everyone's giving their opinionionionions (i hate onions cooked, but i like them raw, in case anyone feels like making some sort of fancy dish for me): i love love brightly wound and plenty of paper. and lost at sea. and..trolleywood and i wasnt prepared and ... well this is going nowhere. i don't dislike any of them. though i must make a confession. i used to get My Lovely and JLWD mixed up. i know! i know. blasphemy, you're thinking. but i couldn't help it. i no longer have that problem, it's been "fixed" (bzzzp! i am not a robot controlled by the government! wwrrzzztt!). |

That's funny, because JLWD is the one that stood out the most for me. My Lovely is great, but it's probably my least favorite on the album. I guess I usually skip 6-8, as well. They're good, but I always want to move straight to the best and last few songs. |

just like we do, plenty of paper, one day..., are the ones i skip to every time. however, the (ep) recordings of the 1st few songs will always be my favorites. |

i don't see how people can say that about the album... its an obvious favorite of mine, maybe even my favorite album of all time... no song ever gets boring and i always listen through the whole album every day... every song has its own unique story to it. _________________

if you have an album for long enough, i don't care who it is, or if they're you're favorite band, you'll get tired of it if you listen to it everyday. |

My Lovely is easily one of my favorites. I don't find it cheesey at all. Great live, too. I don't like Lost at Sea much, but the bridge is nice. Everything else is great though, Memories being No. 1. |

I love Brightly Wound too. Especially the second verse. It's just so b-e-a-utiful. 
I loves me some Brightly Wound. |

EisleyForever, what song are you parodying? I can't seem to make the words fit with "My Lovely." I don't particularly like "My Lovely," but--blasphemy!--I don't like "I Wasn't Prepared" or "Just Like We Do" either. I can't really explain why; they both just sound kind of anemic to me, especially IWP, although I know that makes no sense. When I first got the album I was obsessed with it, esp. "Memories," "Golly Sandra," "Brightly Wound," and the last three songs. Now I mostly listen to their older/more obscure songs but I don't know if that's because they're different or I just haven't heard them as much. _________________ ASTER (i'll think of a clever signature someday.) |
