Yeah, Leftover Crack is good too but I don't know anyone who prefers them to Choking Victim.

That's the reason why we're secretly debating having an 'all the mods minus Janszoon' forum.

Country music takes the least amount of song writing talent. [Sorry - this is for unpopular opinions]

Folk music takes the most.

I've heard this a couple times. That's why he mumbles a lot, you know. He doesn't like his lyrics. Often, though, he does write some fantastic words. Especially when he doesn't try to go overboard.

For instance, look at the lyrics to "Camera" from "Reckoning"

Alone in a crowd/
a bartered lantern borrowed/
If I'm to be your camera/
then who will be your face?

That's great stuff; simple, interesting, and thought provoking, as opposed to songs like Everybody Hurts.
