I felt it in the wind, and i saw it in the sky, i thought it was the end, i thought it was the 4th of July.

I didn't like them for a really long time either. I found the songs boring.
I don't mind them now, but I still can't listen to them in more than small doses, of select songs. I like Silver Jet, for instance, but I suspect that has more to do with me being an Aerospace Engineering major, lol.
My boyfriend though... he grinds his teeth when they pop up on winamp. He just can't stand Gord Downie's voice.
Do you like REM? I've noticed that there seems to be a parallel there.

I like them, but not overly so. I'll download their stuff occasionally, and I always enjoy hearing them on the radio (except for Music @ Work, that was just stupid). However, I haven't actually bought any of their albums.

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

I don't really like them.. I don't despise them but I find most of their songs dull.
Fireworks is alright though and their new one's not bad.
