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.

My order would be:

1. TWF
2. Neon Crossing
3. Stealing Babies
4. Car Crash
5. A Story About a Girl

That list is deceiving though, because I love all 5, and I feel A Story About a Girl is EASILY the best track on Gravity, and I love to listen to it.

Well it's not closing an album then is it :heythere:

But I know what you mean, I saw them play Stealing Babies last November and it wasn't expanded. That was a little disappointing.

Nope, you're not alone there! *does the same thing* Listening to mp3s is better, cos you don't destroy your cds by listening to them too much. :lol:

Oh, and I chose "The Wonderful Future", cos it just seems like a fitting end. :nod: "Car Crash" was a very close second, though.

The Wonderful Future...especially cuz like it totally fits...the last song about the future....it's like after you finish the album you think about the future after pondering the meaning of the song..atleast that's what i do. :clumsy:

I've listened to The Wonderful Future time and time again, and honestly, I don't see why everyone thinks it's so great. It's not a bad song, but I just don't think it's anything special.

I'm in between you and who you are talking about.

I think the song is really good, but not as good as people make it out to be.

...I've been weighed down again...

Heh, okay, I'll stop following the crowd.
But my list goes:

- Stealing Babies
- The Wonderful Future
- Car Crash
- A Story About A Girl
- Neon Crossing
- Somewhere Out There
