I can't figure out what's wrong with pointing out your favorite or your least favorite song on an album. Does people think that it takes focus away from the album as a whole work, or are comments such as "best song: x" just annoyingly unexplained?

I haven't heard this album. But I know the song Mr. Jones, and it reminds me heavily of Krabbeklo by Bjørn Hellfuck - a Norwegian song about getting crab claws in your underpants Surprised So I can't take Mr. Jones very seriously...

You don't have a long history of spamming to point out what you perceive as spam. Keep at it and you will be noticed (and for the most part ignored) too.

Crab claws in your underpants? Sounds like a phenomenal song... You should youtube link it.

About Counting Crows - I agree with most. This album is fun, catchy and memorable. Some might say it's a little disposable, but meh... Have some fun, and appreciate the pop-rock and clever lyrics. However, they did NOTHING after this.

If you can't understand Norwegian, it might not be very funny. I'm Danish myself, so I don't understand every single lyric. But Danish is not too far away from Norwegian, so I have at least figured out the parts with crab claws in the underpants, which is the chorus Smile Anyways:
