I do need to qualify that comment by saying that there are some songs that I think are compositionally superior to LTRP that I do not enjoy listening to as much.
I just cant get past the extreme cheesiness of LTRP. It's such a dopey, lifeless turd.

What the hell is that gif from? Because it's clearly the basis for Will Ferrell's character on Eastbound & Down.

It's Ric Flair and, yes, he was the inspiration for Will Ferrell's Eastbound and Down character.

I would say the piano outro at the end. Always a song I think more of when it's on than when it isn't.

Could've been good if the "production"(ya know what I mean) didn't suck. I think.

By thinking we're infallible, we are tempting fate instead."
One of my favorite moments on any PJ record. What an awesome chorus.

I actually like a lot of the music on this album. More interesting and different than what was on Backspacer or Avocado IMO. Just wasted opportunities though; the songs sound really uninspired as a whole, maybe coz they're so slick. But at the same time I'm thinking it's a step in a new direction.
