Counting Crows

"How can we justify spending so much on destruction and so little on life?" Matthew Good
"The white dove is gone, the one world has come down hard, so why not share the pain of our problems, when all around are wrong ways, when all around is hurt, i'll roll up in an odd shape and wait, untill the tide has turned.....with anger, i'm dead weight, i'm anchored"- IME, God Rocket (Into the Heart of Las Vegas) ^ Some say this song is about a terrorists thoughts before 911
"Pray for the sheep" Matt Good
"But it's alright, take the world and make it yours again" Matt Good
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.
"Hold on, hold on children, your mother and father are leaving, hold on, hold on children your best freind's parents are leaving, leaving,.......*AHHH*! " - Death From Above - Black History Month

I like the first two albums best - August & Everything After and Recovering the Satellites. The song Colourblind is really good 
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

Sean, alls you really need is their hits cd (Films About Ghosts). Although they have many great tracks beyond that album.
I'm really fond of "Einstein on the Beach (For An Eggman)", but that's because that was basically their demo track.

I adore the counting crows .. one day i hope to see them live, though they seem to forget they have fans in canada since they never tour here 
From their first album August and Everything After:
Omaha, Anna Begins, A Murder of One, Round Here
From Recovering the Satellites:
Angels of the Silences, Miller's Angels, Monkey, a long december, walkaways
From This Desert Life:
Amy Hit the Atmosphere, Colorblind, I wish I was a Girl
From Hard Candy:
American Girls, Miami, Holiday in Spain
Then they have their live in NY 2 disc album and their Greatest Hits album Films About Ghosts
My favorite album is definitely August and Everything After

anna begins is a GORGEOUS song.
I also highly recommend the two-disc live release "Across A Wire"; it has an 'effin gorgeous acoustic disc; plus one with the rocking out. The blue disc is my fave release ever by them. Plus 'Holiday in Spain' off of Hard Candy rules all.

"When looking up there, I just felt whole, like I belonged. Like one day I too would shine my most brilliant. Sitting there also made me think about sitting through services at my little country church back home. About that never-changing congregation of the same sixty-seven people and everyone has known you since before you were born. Now, out here in the real world, everything just seemed more vivid than when I used to sit in that little pew. That pew that was now so, so far away from where I was. I feared I had somehow left God behind there, too. I feared he was somehow just sitting there, saving my seat on the fifth pew from the front row, just waiting on me to come back. I left so quickly, I worried that he may not have noticed I was gone. And, now, I’m just too far away to find. So he’s just sitting there, patiently waiting on me to come back. I closed my eyes and prayed a moment. I hoped more than anything that he could still hear me." -an excerpt from my novella, A Sea of Fallen Leaves.

in the great words of carl from ATHF...'they're awsome! freakin awsome! Yeah!'
Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown
