Well, I missed voting on my own poll. My vote would have gone to Mystery to Me, with Heroes as second place.

You're great.

I hope the world reads this and gives the cast of Glee a collective glare.

I love the Mac version of Mission Bell! I think where the artist has a connection and it's their idea it can turn out great. For Your Love was something coming from the business side wanting a single for radio promo and sales, along the lines of when Marmalade did Ob-La-Di when the Beatles wouldn't let it be used as a single. There used to be so much audio sludge existing solely because of some suit with an adding machine to plow through to get to the good stuff, we forget now perhaps how many often deliberately confusing cover versions there once were and not just from budget labels using soundalike mimics. People are still excavating great original recordings from the '60s and early '70s sludge fogged forest! It's like all the old movie and tv shows remade as big budget Hollywood films the last couple of dozen years; you often have to dig to find the buried gems from the more artistically inclined but lacking funding and promotion. One track 0ut of a dozen albums I could see gone and not miss at all is an extremely good average. The Hollies even had an entire album (Sing Dylan) I want to totally forget!
