'Inside Out' is just dandy, innit?

Jeez, this album!

Why did I wait so long?!

I faded on this quite quickly but it has come back with a vengeance. Probably their best after Gax5. Rent I pay is so-so, They Want My Soul is slightly annoying (mostly the chorus lyrics that put me off I think, a shame as the verse sounds so warm and inviting), and IJDU is worthless - but the rest is silver to gold. Walking round the house singing the falsetto 'do-do-doos' from Do You is immensely enjoyable. Sometimes I think it's the best track but then New York Kiss comes along.

Yeah, "Do You" is a weapons-grade earworm

I'm doing my top Spoon songs for the imminent Spoon artist poll and was surprised how many off this album made the final 20

six years pass...

Have always been lukewarm on this album and I’m realizing tonight that it might be entirely due to “Outlier” (the “you walked out of Garden State” one). The rest of the album is pretty solid

I really like this one. probably the last one I really gave a fair shake. braking my brain that it’s 8 years old now. spent a lot of time listening to this when I lived in Nashville and walked everywhere
