I think it's their most definitive. I know Elizabeth doesn't like the Blue Bell Knoll album but it's matchless compared to anything out there although there are some thaiwanese yodeling birdy type girls acts but the music that Simon and Robin produced there is pristine, bold, and dynamic

I had no idea Pink Orange Red and Orange Appled were such hits around here... *shrug*

PS - I still refuse to select a song.

it is really hard to choose because there are so many styles and moods and everything, but in the end i have to say 'millimillenary'. i would have picked 'orange appled' but nobody i know seems to be as moved by it as i am... summerhead is another one of the best too.

why do you say that, moe?

the only reason i'm able to choose at all is because i've made a lot of ct comps for people and i kind of get a lot of feedback about what really represents the band well enough to get them interested, i guess... and 'millimillenary' gives me this little happy tickly feeling in my stomach because it's so beautiful! but i love 'a kissed out red floatboat' and 'cico buff' and 'heaven or las vegas' and 'love's easy tears' and about eighty jillion others that i couldn't live without.

I say that because many if not most if not ALL of the songs on poll that have been clicked don't do much for me, some of them I can't even put a tune next to the song title... I know I've said this before, but I feel like there is this amazing quality in the band's music that I just don't seem to be grasping... I don't know whether to be upset or not...? I know that everyone has different tastes and one of the things I love about the band is that there don't really seem to be "obvious favourites" - but still...

i think i just write in the most horrible way, i don't really explain myself well at all! i guess what i meant to say is that millimillenary is what i voted for and i stand by that, but i am pretty obsessed with orange appled and nobody else i know likes it, which is very inconsequential anyway.

hahahaha, i suck!

Look at some of the earlier posts on this thread, Alli, and you'll see Orange Appled has quite a few fans. I always liked Millimillenary because I thought it was cool Liz wrote a song about hats (if that's really what it's about).

yes, i always assumed it was about hats too, elisa!

i just meant that nobody i know 'in real life' likes it. i always get so excited if i put it on a cd for someone, and i talk about how it's one of the prettiest songs in the world. my friends remain unimpressed. hahaha.
