    I know I'm in the minority, but I absolutely love the first album and have since I first heard it in 2003. I liked Aha Shake Heartbreak and Because of the Times, but didn't spin them nearly as often. The last 2 albums were decent, but didn't really grab me. I still listen to Youth and Young Manhood frequently.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.
