Wow, just listened to the alternate version of Terrible Love and I easily prefer it over the album version (that I like, but don't love). Much much 'cleaner' and therefore better imo.

See page 281 for an explanation of why you’re wrong.

Haha whoops, not bringing anything new to the table here I see...cant say I really understand your interpretation, because, well, I dont really delve deep into lyrics and stuff.

Can see why you (and others) would prefer the album version though - it's more unique in their catalog, whereas the alternate version is kind of Natioanal by the books. This maybe makes for a stronger album-opener.

I used to not be crazy about Lemonworld and Runaway but the former really grew on me and I became able to appreciate the beauty of Runaway too, despite it being a little long.

Also the alt. version of Terrible Love is indeed superior, and one of their best songs. The drumming is insane.

"Lemonworld" is probably the most perfect Matt vocal presentation they ever wrote.

some people think it's the worst song on the album - it is a bit misunderstood
