Ooh, I likes it. :clap:

It's not as good as "Angels or Devils", though. :drool:

Dishwalla has been around since the dawn of time (when OLP first started out)

They're from Cali

They had a huge hit called "Counting Blue Cars" in the 90s.

Dat's a good song. :nod: :drool:

But I still say to get "Angels or Devils"... that goes for... well, all of you. It was an accidental download on my part (still don't know how/why I downloaded it), and oh man. Best accidental download. Ever.

My favorite Walla song off of Opaline is 'Every Little Thing' and all time a tie between 'The Bridge Song' and 'Until I Wake Up'.

I have "Pet Your Friends" and "And You Think You Know What Life's About" and I like both of them alot. I never got around to getting "Opaline"...I bid on it a few times on eBay, but I kept getting outbid. It's interesting that some of you say it's their best album...I didn't really hear anything about it other than just seeing it in a few stores. I just noticed the new one came out too (is it self-titled?) Don't they also have a live album?...I'm not sure.

Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...

I love Dishwalla... been one of my favorites for a while. The new CD isn't their best and I think somewhat repetitive (songs sound similar) for a Dishwalla release. I never noticed that problem on any previous releases, but I did on this one. Still good though, but it won't be played as many times as Opaline was, I'm sure of that.

So I got Opaline because many of you recommended it. It's alright, but certainly not as good as their first 2 IMO.
