"Beautiful music but will do little for our struggling economy"
This is really such a shimmeringly beautiful, almost elegiac, album. But, honestly, in times such as this (specifically, now (for those of you who may be reading this a few years from now)), we need help with our economy any way we can get it. Now, I know music can only do so much (especially since it's just music), but I feel like we need to support the music artists that most help boost our countrie's economic station even if the differences between artists in this regard is very very slight. We need all the help we can get!

Well, Fleet Fox (or is it Foxes? I'm not sure which), as you notice, create very laid back folky music. I feel like this runs the risk of influencing a certain laid backness that our country really can't weather right now. I feel like New Order or someone like daft Punk who use technology in their music and have to take classes to learn their instruments and have to have software and flow charts and such things to do their music are therefore more like to influence a swelling economy.

And this review isn't funny...but the percentage of "helpful" votes for it are. Ah, Coldplay fans.

I luv Coldplay!!!! They are so good to listen to!!!!!!!!!!!!

I luv "Square One"! It's really nice!! :-)

Also, I like "Till Kingdom Come"!! It's the hidden track which is actually pretty easy to find. Just go to track 13! I like it cuz I was gonna off myself--cuz life is dank and empty :-(

And I was all ready to do it (I had a friend who was gonna drop a way cool computer on me from 20 floors above) but I heard "Till" on my iPod and I waved up at him to not drop the thing!

I also really like "Talk"! The melody is sooo good!! :-P
