I just tried giving The Woods a listen. Could only get about three tracks in before bailing on it

The Woods is probably second for me just after Ghosts of the great highway.

The first two songs are arguably the weakest tracks on the album. Track three, on the other hand, is PHENOMENAL.

How in the fuck is "The Fox" - ONE OF THE GREATEST OPENERS OF ALL TIME - one of the weakest songs on that album? HOW, ZEB?!

But, really...how?

So you're saying a bailed too soon? I think I was a little let down by the first two tracks so wasn't really paying attention by the third

I love The Fox.

But:

What's Mine Is Yours
Entertain
Night Light
Let's Call It Love
Jumpers
Steep Air
Rollercoaster

Each and every one better than The Fox.

We don't agree on much, zeb.

zeb has, I think, the most consistently excellent taste in music of anyone on RM. It kinda blows my mind, actually.

I've got more rhymes than I've got grey hairs
And that's a lot because I've got my share

I was shocked to see The Fox at number 1 on this list:

I love it and the scene it sets for the album, but it's definitely in the lower half of tracks from The Woods.
