    Soon Forget is a great track. Is it better than Sad? Nope. But I think the lyrics are great. I would have rather heard that last Halloween than Bugs.

    wow... the book is so cool.

    only read about No Code and Binaural so far and it's all so interesting. Stone doesn't seem to have much love for Binaural it seems. And while I do love this album, I always felt it could've been so much better if they had just thought about the tracklisting a little better and the guys seem to think the same from the comments in the book. Shame really, could've been a real wow album. Tchad Blake was so so so right, it's unbelievable that Fatal didn't make the cut - this song is soooo Pearl Jam.

    Been thinking about this for years so here is what maybe would've been better:

    Breakerfall
    Sad
    Fatal
    Light Years
    Nothing As It Seems
    In The Moonlight
    Thin Air
    Insignificance
    Education
    Of The Girl
    Sleight Of Hand
    Soon Forget

    Evacuation has no place on anything apart from lost dogs. And although I like Grievance and Rival and parting ways, they don't seem as strong to me personally, maybe in the same category as In The Moonlight, but I think perhaps that has more substance to it. dunno. just thinking out loud.

    Binaural is perfect the way it is. It would be cool, though, if they did a re-release and added some outtakes of the stuff on Lost Dogs added to the end.
