The Rat was the best song of 2003 or whenever it was released. Love the one take video.

Don't try to shy away from your use of the word "almost". What else is in the running, zebediah?

Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me Is Gone - loved this album but haven't listened to it in awhile now - I believe a search for their discography is in order... and a tip of the hat to ---, once again for bringing back some good music to my attention.
