I prefer both Radio City and Third to this album, but it's still pretty great, loaded with lots of catchy pop hooks and ingenious songwriting.

Also, Thirteen is probably the most amazing song written about shallow teenage love ever.

Thirteen is just ... gahhh that song. So much love and so much pain in that. Love it.
