I'd say (for me) Fallout Today > The Dark > The Haves is one of the worst runs in all of the PJ extended universe.

Middle for me. Definitely not a favorite, but except for the Haves I like all of Earthlings. The first two singles are my bottom two.
But I adore In The Dark

I'd move up Try, but this is probably close to my list too

Ha, The Dark is one of my favorite PJ-related songs of the past 15-20 years.

You're not alone. Seems like most fans love it. For some reason it just doesn't click for me. But I think Picture is one of the best on the record, so what do I know?

Hopefully the end of the Wotman Jam era isn't far away.
How overjoyed would you be if he also crashed into a pedestrian?

I like the first one and the third one a lot. Second album was so so. I still need to listen to it a bit more.

Man that record was *not* good.
I thought this was the most inspired Eddie sounded in several years and that carried over to Dark Matter.

it has something special in that role. Which I like a lot, but it comes late.
I would need to listen to that song again. But my memory is that I really don't like it. Like, it's probably better than Something Special? But maybe not because I could sing you Something Special and I only remember Fallout Today because I have a visceral negative reaction to the title.
Man I friggin' love Fallout Today!
yeah me too
