you should see my desk at work. between what i like and the releases i have to keep up with from the labels... it's been hard for me to catch up.

and it doesn't help when i become obsessed with something and listen to the same song over and over.

yeah, i couldnt even really make it through their other two albums that I d-loaded and I love the new one.

I only one album that I've bought but haven't listened to it. A Juliana Hatfield disc.

I'm trying to buy and listen to her albums in chronological order but I found it for $4 somewhere so I picked it up and filed it away for later.

i haven't bought a single album and never listened to it.

I can understand neglecting to listen to things you like for a long time. I can understand things getting lost in your collection before you've fully digested them. I can even understand forgetting that you own some cds. I can't understand buying something though and then never listening to it.

I listen(ed) to everything that I've purchased, but my CD consumption has skyrocketed with the introducton of lala. I used to get around 6 CDs every month but now that number is closer to 15.

If I really thought about it I'm sure I'd have CDs from years ago I've not listened to yet.

"If I Ever Feel Better" is classic.

My feelings are that the latest Phoenix album is their strongest overall. But their best songs are from their previous 2 records. But their previous 2 records have a lot of weak songs that offset the few strong ones.
