"Can't decide if I prefer this or The Colour And The Shape. The standout songs on The Colour And The Shape are better than those on Wasting Light, but Wasting Light is more consistent."  Reply

"NO! You can't have a song called 'I've Never Been In Love Before' on an album with a song called 'I Fall in Love Too Easily'! This makes no sense! You're a blatant liar Chet Baker and you know it!"  Reply

"Why they didn't put the full version of perfect kiss on here is beyond me. Every time I hear this album I always wish it wouldn't fade out! What the hell were they thinking cos the full version is one of the best things I've ever heard. It fades just at the point it goes from fantastic to mind bl..."  [+]  Reply

"Sounds like this band had a great time putting this record together. Kind of has a surfer vibe to it - but on steroids. And "Cannonball" is a flat out great song."  Reply

"I love this album for...personal reasons, which I won't be going into. All I can say is that I love this from front to back, even despite Young Thug making an appearance. Oh and to the guy with the Sun Kil Moon comment, I listen to both, is there a problem?"  Reply
