There, it feels so good to confess.
Ok I take it back, Happy has grown on me a little. I've woken up with it in my head the past couple of days. I just never gave it a chance. But, I am adding 'new Amsterdam' to my least favorite. THERE! |

The Fear would probably be part of that list if they didn't play it on the last tour and it completely grew on me after that.
If you heard How Many Hearts live, you wouldn't think the same! And the live version of The Fear is by far better than the album version |

No way! We Are Monkeys is great and funny, and Mother is beautiful in a raw kind of way. I can also relate to both of them :D
I can (almost) see why people dislike Flowers In The Window, and it's not in my best of -list either, but I think it's really sweet.
I'm gonna have to say Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah. It just doesn't do the trick for me, at all.
If I'd have to pick a song from one of the albums, I'm afraid it would be Under The Moonlight. It's a beautiful song don't get me wrong, but something is just.. There's hardly any surprises and it's maybe too easy to listen.
I remember when I first heard it and I thought it wasn't going to be on the album and I was really relieved.
It does give The Boy With No Name it's own flavour though with KT Tunstall, so I'm not complaining :)
Oh and I totally agree with Andrew about the ending of Peace The Fuck Out, it's horrible and cheesy. I like the song though, it's different.
PS: WOOT, my first post in the new MB. |

Are you guys crazy? -Peace the fuck out is the best song of 12 memories.
-Flowers in the window isn't one of my favourites but is so much better than Safe, follow the light, The humpty dumpty love song, Indefinetely.
-Yeah yeah yeah yeah is one of the best Travis' rock songs.
-New Amsterdam isn't a wonderful song I agree, but One night, Under the moonlight or Colder are worse than it.
-Mid-life krysis is brillant (just listen the starting) and is one of the best lyrics.

ElspethOllie you're my heroe. I totally agree. Some people here are smoking a little bit of marihuana I though. Hahahaha just kidding, I give credit to all opinions.

Yeah, it must be right because you used CAPITAL LETTERS.
For fuck's sake, it's someone elses opinion, you can't really frown across the internet at people for disagreeing with you.
Grow up, both of you. |

| I haven't seen that coming- obviously not so many people share my eternal love for Flowers in the window ;) I guess it makes me more unique, haha ;P |

I know it's someone elses opinion, and I respect it. In this thread everyone has been bantering back in forth in good humor. So lay off.
I was going to say whatever you're smoking I need to get a hold of because it's gotta be strong. :) |
