    Yes.

    In The Aeroplane Over The Sea saved my life.

    I'm only semi-joking.

    I listened to In an Aeroplane the two days ago working out in the gym. You can listen to that music anywhere anytime. :)

    In The Aeroplane Over The Sea is a great album

    Oh Comely isn't even music. It's something else. Something more.

    As is Two-Headed Boy pt 2, a song which helped me through a very hard time. I find it hard to listen to now because of bad memories but it's almost impossibly and has beautiful and has great significance for me.

    I haven't heard a lot, but I've liked what I have heard. Maybe I should add it too my collection :)

    Yes! You should do.

    On Avery Island, their first album, is really good too, although I always say it's like ITAOTS without the magic.

    Also, some of their unreleased tracks are amazing. When this song really gets going it's sooo good.

    it really is just beyond words.

    "but don't hate her when she gets up to leave" one of the greatest ending lines of all time. damn.

    Yup, that's the line that I refer to when I say the song is very significant for me. It's the one that helped me through my hard time :) It's one of those albums I think, one that you can find at just the right time of your life and it either clicks or it doesn't. I know people who just don't get it and I feel sorry for them, especially those that don't get to experience Two Headed Boy pt 2. I believe I cried the first time I heard it :o

    I always found it really funny and over the top when people talked about reacting to music like that until I heard NMH.

    exactly! i feel bad for people who don't get music in general, because it's the most amazing thing ever...
    i'm glad NMH did it for you :)
