"I'm gonna smile and not get worried.
I try but it shows."

Such a relatable lyric

 

@fenway89 Pain

 

Yeah, Once I start listening to them, I cant stop haha

 

Good i'm at the same place

 

"Pain" is not a bad song, just my least favorite song on this album.

 

In the end it may have been a blessing in disguise because I didn't overplay it. This album still sounds so fresh to me everytime I listen to it.

 

now the beautiful transition into drugs or me gorgeous

 

Agreed. I think I played too much Tony Hawks.

 

That is also due to the quality of this record though!

 

So to give insight why Damage is so high for me, it came out right after my fiance called off our wedding 9 days before the wedding date. So JEW writing and releasing a "grown up" break up album was perfect timing for me. It hit me so hard. The emotional attachment I have to that album just lifts it up so much.






I ended up marrying the same girl two years later.

 

"Pain" is still/currently my favorite song on the album, just because I played it on repeat so many times in THUG 2 lol. This album is so good though.

 

"Drugs or Me" is definitely underrated. Along with "Gotta Be Somebody's Blues".

 

"If only you could see
The stranger next to me"

This is how I felt when my first marriage was coming to an end. I even said something like that to my ex

 

Sadly I have to bow out before we get to it. But, fucking "Polaris" man, holy shit!

 

This song gives me the feels. The subtle strings in the background. Goosebumps all around. It has always hit me hard this one especially.

 

I’m meant to be picking my girlfriend up from work right now, but she’s been held up for a bit. Just means I get to stay and listen with you guys!

 

Yeah wish there was more songs like Blues on Chase This Light. Definitely a darker one and makes me appreciate it that much more since it's only one on the record like that.

 

"I feel that when I'm old
I'll look at you and know
The world was beautiful"

What a stretch of words

 

Polaris is underrated. This record is so strong from front to back also the sequencing is perfect.

 

That bassline in Polaris though...

 

I love how it runs through the whole song unchanged, whilst the song moves on around it

 

I've legitimately already had chills at least five times so far during this record, and we haven't even hit "23" yet

 

The drum build up during "as the train.."

 

"When you go, I'll let you be
But you're killing everything in me"

Absolutely gut-wrenching
