brand new. brand new weapon. seriously...it doesn't get better than "have another drink and drive yourself home, i hope there's ice out on the road, and you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt, and again when your head goes through the windshield". thank you brand new for making bitter breakups that much better.

waterdeep. you think it doesn't get better than sink or swim? bam! everyone's beautiful (which guy stole...guy...if you are out there...give me my cd back...sung to the tune of a great ben folds five song..."). granted they do have 1 gazillion cd's out there...but even the ones that i don't like that much, i still like enough to listen to.

honorable mention goes to switchfoot. up until this past year. legend of chin...that's greatness. then we've got new way to be human...and it's still greatness. company car. seriously. that's just the best song ever. but they started to deteriorate after that. ending up at the beautful letdown. and that it was. i like three songs on there a lot. the rest are just alright. BUT, they still qualify as a group that has put out the most cd's in my favorites list. unlike...

overrated cd's?

damien rice. o. i know, i know. i liked two songs on the whole cd. that to me...isn't a classic. please do not comment on your shock of my "heresy"...it is finished. he has gone to a new home where that person can love him, and squeeze him...

honorable mention goes to derek webb's solo. this one just made me sad. i had high hopes for it cause i love just about every song he did with caedmon's...but noooooo. it had to be all political, theological. what happened to the derek i loved. the derek who sang of love, and lack of love, and finding love, and losing love?? he's not in that cd. that's all i know.
