What are your favorite songs so far? Are there any you skip over?

My favorites are definitely Watch It Die and Mr. Moon. I have to skip over The Valley, Smarter, and Ambulance because I've listened to those songs so many times already. I almost wish I never heard any of the tracks before the album was released.

I keep coming back to "I Wish" and "Watch It Die." Definitely my favorites, but I love them all. Least favorite is probably "Smarter."

Agree with kLafied on I Wish and Watch It Die. But my favorite is Please -- it's stunning, I can't get it out of my head. Regardless, the album from start to finish is so strong, this would be a hard decision outside of the realm of taste.

For me it's "I Wish", hands down. I have been listening to it non-stop since Monday. I will admit the first time I heard it I shed man-tears. The line, "Oh, I wish you felt this way" just really hits a personal spot for me.

"I Wish" and "Watch It Die" along with "Better Love".... As soon as I heard an acoustic version of "Better Love" I loved it. I also really like "Oxygen Mask". Gah.. it's so hard to choose, they're all amazing!

Watch It Die, Kind, and Better Love. I had heard the live version of Kind before but the studio version really got me.

I don't get the "Better Love" love.
The chorus just drones and drones.
Makes me want to drill my brains out.

The whole album is packed with solid songs. But my favorite is "I Wish", for sure. It's sooooooo good!

So difficult to pick favourites, but I always skip The Valley, Smarter and Ambulance, Ambulance the most though, only because it's the last track on the album... and as there's so many more new songs to listen to I never go past Ambulance to get to other new songs, so I tend to forget about it...

I love Better Love, the pre-chorus is just perfect. I Wish, Please, Sad and Watch It Die are probably my favourites so far Smile

Sad. Definitely my favorite. ...it may be because of the back story. I feel more connected to it. My relationship history is strangely similar to Sherri's, and I can relate to this song...

Kind of makes me happy that some other girl has to put up with his crap now, and not me! Smile Smile

It's funny because I really wasn't taken with "I Wish" the first go around but after hearing it only once, I couldn't get it out of my head and have now taken a liking to it. Apparently, I loved it but didn't know it. I think it's just because it's so different from their other stuff but I'm really loving it. The whole album is amazing, in my opinion. I love every song on it for different reasons, honestly.

mr. moon, i wish, please, and watch it die

i feel like i don't like some songs sometimes, but i find myself coming back to the album every time loving each song more and more

except for some reason ambulance still doesn't do anything for me - i love it live but something about the album version..hmm
