I think that if there isn't one song on the album I don't like, then it's not a Travis album ;)

on Good Feeling, I really don't like The Line is Fine.
On The Man Who, I skip Luv
on The Invisible Band I can't say I like Safe
on 12 Memories I skip Midlife Krysis
and on the Boy With No Name, it's New Amsterdam I won't listen to.

I don't think any of the above songs are 'bad' per se, I just find myself unmoved and I tend to just not enjoy them.




woah what a coincidence.. I find Luv and Safe particularly moving, and I think New Amsterdam is cute and catchy. I always thought Midlife was pretty good too.

Paperclips!
Always skip it. For me it sounds as bad as chalk squeaks on a blackboard *shudders*

I like Flowers in the Window so i won't be picking that. Its a difficult one. Apart from the The Boy... and The Invisible Band, there are a few i could pick on each album. I Love You Anyways and Falling Down. She's So Strange. Walking Down The Hill come to mind. Not many more though i don't think.

New Amsterdam- Don't like abstract/word-association/say-what-you-see lyrics, the tune is far from being the best... thank God it's at the end of the album, otherwise I'd be pissed off from the start. I just spoils such a great album.

always interesting to see how different our opinions about songs are! ;)

one of my favourite song at the moment is 'Flowers In The Window', I really like the accoustic version...

Mid Life Krysis is pretty much my fave song on 12 Memories these days. It just seems closest to the 'classic' Travis than most of the songs on there, bouncier.

Good Feeling - the title track Good Feeling.
The Man Who - The Last Laugh of the Laughter
The Invisible Band - Safe, Dear Diary (though both are OK)
12 Memories - Peace the F*ck Out, Paperclips
TBWNN - New Amsterdam, Under the Moonlight
B-Sides - Rock & Salad Roll, Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

so all the albums have the odd song I'm not keen on. The closest imo to being truly bad is Peace The F*ck out. No, on second thoughts, that one really is dire.

Paperclips for me as well, it's the only Travis song I'll never listen to.
