The song "Fuel" is pretty good.

I've loved this album since the day it came out. A great collection of Ian's songs that is often overlooked.

Everlasting Neverendless and the live Shroud of Turin are probably my favourite post-reunion Bunnymen songs.

The Bunnymen at their best are THE best.

Mac's voice on "Candleland" (the single) is like smooth, dark melted chocolate. I never tire of listening to it, especially the "Second Coming" versions with the lush strings.

Will's "Spirit" from "Curvature of the Earth" is one of my favorite instrumentals. I love the bass line.

Sarcastic post deleted. Sorry, I don't make the rules. Oh wait.

My life would have been a much, much worse place without them on so many levels.

I lost my cherry to Killing Moon and would not have wanted it any other way.

Was it the All Night 12" version? I like that version.

not after the first time.

and speaking of that version, somewhere towards the end, in a string section theres an acoustic guitar comes in really low in the mix - doing that chukka chukka thing you used to see mac doing back in the day, that is just awesome. And thats not a word I oftyen use.

Even though I am not a fan of "Flowers", I do like "Buried Alive."

One for the feel good thread: Maybe they've not been a good live band recently, I wouldn't know because I haven't been to all the gigs, and I know that others feel sure of it, but the one in Israel last year was one of the best of its time, and I think any other band could only aspire to sound like it.

The B-sides on Flowers were great and I especially liked "A Promise (lofi lullabye #1)"
