I’m really happy that I’ve come around to this record. For nearly a decade I’ve been slowly chipping away at Aeroplane, liking and connecting with it a little bit more each listen (the first couple not being so favorable whatsoever).
Recently though, this album has simply blossomed for me. It has spiraled into the ridiculously engaging and lovable experience that everyone on Earth seemed to pick up on before me.
So intrinsically it. ITAOTS is also simply one of the best works of lyrics I can reference. [First added to this chart: 04/25/2020]
