All I can remember from this album is the intro killing my boner and then getting very, very bored.

The intro would've worked, maybe, if it didn't sound so forced. All the breaks and the ums that just weren't needed at ALL.

That said I really do love this album. First Day of My Life is one of those bittersweet songs for me, a happy song with happy AND sad memories associated with it.

I always thought that the ums and pauses made the story work better. It makes it sound like he was doing an intro for a small intimate group of people that he feels comfortable talking in front of.

It's not like the story was serious at all anyway, if I recall correctly it's about a fake airplane crash that turned out to be a surprise birthday party.

It's been far too long since I've listened to this one.

I always loved the intro Anxious The first time I heard it, it baffled me. It's a pretty stupid story, but then at some point it started to turn into music and I really dug the transition there.

Top 5 tracks:
1. Road to Joy
2. At the Bottom of Everything
3. First Day of My Life
4. Lua
5. Train Under Water
