    So this album right.....

    I hope we get acoustic videos like we did with About Falling and the whole IDOTG cycle. Those were pretty good and highlighted Max at his peak. What's everyone's favourite rendition of any albums songs?

    Property has always been a dud. That and crush’d are my least favorites from s/t.

    Regarding “Less Cute,” I actually always somehow knew it was from the girl’s perspective....but looking back, it could totally be a guy/guy song without changing a single line.

    Crush’d is definitely corny on purpose. It’s a genuine love song but it’s defintley written in a way that’s also tongue-in-cheek and I love it.

    Do Better is the first song I heard from the ST so it’s probably my favorite followed by Cemetery.

    Eloise is one of my favorite Say Anything songs. Self-titled has some gems and it gives me wicked nostalgia for freshman year of college.

    Do Better doesn’t get enough love despite its extreme dorkiness. That guitar solo is clunky magic.

    Eloise is one of my favorite songs, period. The piano and guitar interplay is so simple and perfect, probably the best chorus he’s written too aside from Admit It

    I love Do Better, Eloise, and Ahh... Men. I want to give the album another spin now, it’s been years.

    An inconsequential shift as the continents drift.

    Do Better and Less Cute are a perfect pop duo of songs. Cemetery is also a stunner, but it's all very inconsistent otherwise

    The album only has like two songs I'd cut. I think it's one of their strongest.

    Fed to Death and Mara and Me are fantastic. Solid album, I think Property and album version of Crush'd are the only ones I could do without.

    I’d cut Property and Young, Dumb, and Stung, I love the rest.

  19. Self-Titled is weird. It has some all-timers as well as some songs that never clicked with me (like "Young, Dumb, Stung"). I also don't love how polished it is, which I know no one here will agree with considering how unpolished everything that followed was. But "Cemetery" might be the best song Max has ever written.

    Although I don't like that song, it's really cool to see how Max's music has such a wide range of appeal for people.

    Right? Like I don't enjoy his new stuff at all (minus this new single) but I totally see the appeal, and Max will always have a soft spot in my heart for how utterly important his music was for me growing up

    The self titled is probably the only full album I come back to and listen in full. I would come back to Hebrews more because I like that in full as well but it’s one of those I have to be in a certain headspace for. I don’t really have the nostalgia factor for IARB and didn’t listen until about ten years after it was released and IDOTG is way too long so it’s mostly just certain songs off those I come back to.
