    Thats the same thing I'm thinking as I'm listening to it again.

    The voice on Highly Suspicious is cool and hilarious at the same time.

    For someone who didn't think 'Z' was any special at all. It wasn't bad but really didn't excite much at all, i'm I likely to enjoy this one more?

    While it's not my fav song, I think my fav part of the album is in Highly Suspicious when the giggling starts, followed by a funky guitar lick, and then busts into a full on jam.

    Some may think I'm crazy but Librarian is my favorite song on this album.

    I'm amazed (no pun intended) how fast "Highly Suspicious" went from annoying to genius. Love that song now.

    totally agree with you on this. i posted earlier in this thread back when i first obtained the album that there is no "WOAH" song. well letting it sink in and having listened to it 80+ times according to my iPod count, Librarian is definitely a woah song. in fact, the last 3-4 songs are freaking amazing. i am so excited to see them at radio city NEXT WEEK! (i just realized that!)

    Its a strange album..definitely getting more out of it the more I listen to it. The criticism I have right now is that it doesn't have the continuity or consistency of an album. Some of it seems kind of disjointed and like there is too much coming from all over the place and too many integrated styles. I think it really sets a mood at the end of the album with "smokin from shootin" and "touch me pt 2".

    Part of me thinks its the producers fault, he should've reigned in the album a little bit, focusing on the album as a whole. THe mid album lulls a little bit and I also think some of the songs could have been fleshed out a bit more at their best parts.

    But overall, still some very good material.

    I totally agree. I picked it up yesterday and I haven't quit playing it since. I am by no means a music snob, but God Damn this album is so good. Best thing I've heard in years, easily. I didn't like "Z" that much and I was hesitant to buy it yesterday, but the guy in my local record store, Papa Jazz, told me he GUARANTEED I would like it and if I didn't, bring it back.

    i find it so amazing the polar opposite reactions to this album. its either the best thing people have heard or not feelin it at all. its awesome, there is no in between it seems.

    I agree.. I think it is pretty cool

    On the MMJ boards there is a topic about posting your fave songs in order.. EVERYONE has different faves. Usually on an album there are always 2-3 that is pretty concrete as the top on lists.

    If there were a little bit of better sound quality in the vid, it would be the best on youtube.com
