CTL best album, Dizzy best song. xoxo

 

Every Jimmy album is at least very good. Most are better than that.

 

i'm upset that "Work" isn't on there. that song just puts me in the right mood

 

CTL should've had Open Bar Reception on it

 

That song is so good. Very visual.

 

LOL, I know. I was in high school.

 

Very glad to see people loved the show in here.

The closest I think anyone ever got was the opening track on Greatest Generation by the Wonder Years. LOVED that they opened that record with a slow jam. That's really the only TWY record I have connected with and it's definitely up there with my all time favorites. That opening track being similar to Table for Glasses totally helped set the tone for that record for me.

Added this to my research links but what's the deal with this Ian Cohen guy? IDK anything about him?

 

There’s a random band called the Classic Crime I love a whole lot who put a slow, short song first on their album ‘The Silver Cord.’ Their frontman specifically said it was an homage to Jimmy Eat World and Clarity - they just wanted to be like them.

 

Now you've forced me into listening to Chase This Light. Thanks a lot.

 

That is not a bad thing at all.

 

Please tell me to delete if this isn't allowed! But if anyone has rips of Futures or Clarity and wanna trade for The Starting Line and Dashboard's streams, shoot me a message.

 

One of my favourite Jimmy songs full stop. Fairly sure it came from the same melodic idea as Always Be and that's why it didn't make the cut. Opening lines share a vocal melody, just in different keys. Too on-the-nose to be a coincidence.

 

Very pleased to see all the love CTL is getting. I have lots of memories of singing along to Big Casino during pre-game parties in college. I always thought it was a great follow-up to Futures, kind of swung to the other end of the spectrum

 

Big Casino needs to be higher on that top 30 list.

 

Open Bar Reception >>>>>Always Be
They should've swapped the two

 

And now I just had to go and listen to Surviving too. Damn you all.

 

I always though Beautiful Is.... was interesting and could have been an album into or hidden track.

 

A good number of their B-sides would be the best song most other bands ever wrote. It's insane.

 

That’s why I am still holding out they release the other song they had worked on from Surviving.

 

I just hope Jim continues pass-through frequencies

 

The first concert I ever booked was Jimmy Eat World. It was a very long arduous process, and was the biggest thing I had accomplished at the time. The first song they played in sound check was Dizzy.

Yeah, that song is always gonna be number one for me haha

 

I’ve always been partial to “Be Sensible”

 

Ran through Invented tonight. Holy shit. That is a record.

 

This has always been my favorite of theirs. I think it brings together what they do best, and ends up being their biggest, most grandiose work. I don’t really have words for how much I love it.
