I am probably gonna have to go with I Mother Earth's Quicksilver Meat Dream, too.

It's one of, if not the best album that I've got in my tiny collection of CD's right now, and well, I'm still loving every second of it. :love:
"if the nuremberg trials were applied to us foreign policy, every us president since 1945 would have been hanged." noam chomsky.

...and this is me hanging on / i'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine / anxiety chokes me like razor wire / if hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given / wake up / i'm not the only one / it's never goodbye / go ahead and play dead / if everyone's a casualty, then take your time, there ain't no trouble / these wounds they will not heal / ambition can be a tricky thing / what the hell do i know about rape anyway? / this is not what i hoped for / ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon / who will be there to tell me how stupid i am? / those living for death will die by their own hand / and it's me that I am spying on / pick up the pieces and live with the stars / hurry up and wait / things have never been so swell / they're always the ones who slowly drift / be great / ...and this is my world.

Beautiful Midnight, but I've got a pretty heavy Matt Good bias.
Just because I am sexy, naked, a bassist, and sporting a top hat doesn't make me Duncan Coutts!

Happiness or Clumsy. Very hard to choose between the two.

I don't think I can choose. There are so many that have gotten me through different things ... and it changes every couple weeks ...

Without you I'm as good as
dead ...

Spiritual Machines. No Constest.
I still have yet to find anything like it. I like every single song, and I like the order that there in, and the concept is bold and interesting and good, and the book is FUCKING AWESOME! I love thealbum so much.
:drool: :drool: :drool: 8-)

O ya! Mike's last one too! And the In Repair Video. And the Cover Art. I'll stop typing before I think of more reasons.

Now i don't know... Clumsy still probably wins by a nose, but Beautiful midnight, happiness, spiritual machines, de loused in the comatorium, and Relationship Of Command are close.

As many of you have already said, this is incredably difficult. If I had to pick one, right now it would be The Bad Plus - These Are The Vistas.

If you ask me tomorrow, it may be the same or it may be Happiness, SM, Nirvana - Incesticide, The Streets - Original Pirate Material...wow, I guess I could keep going; in all honesty I don't know what it will be tomorrow :lol:

i cant pick one
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

Yay there are J.E.W. fans on the CM :D

My favorite CD definitely comes down to something between O.L.P. and J.E.W. since they are eternally locked in a struggle for my favorite band. Further narrowing down their work is just... so... impossible. Bleed American got me into J.E.W. in the first place, so it sorta gets the sentimental favorite nod there. Same goes for Clumsy on the O.L.P. end. But... God, I love Static Prevails, possibly moreso than Clarity. For O.L.P. the choice is between Clumsy and Happiness. Clumsy started it all for me... but, honestly... from top to bottom, I honestly feel like Happiness is the better CD.

So yeah, I gotta say Happiness Is Not A Fish That You Can Catch by Our Lady Peace is my favorite CD. Partially because I can't settle on a fave from Jimmy Eat World's catalouge.
