Doesn't anyone like Empire State???

I was just reading the thread about Mirage, and how most people find it bland, and no one seems to like Empire State (which is something I have read over and over for soooo long). I also read that everyone thinks Stevie and Chris steal that album. Chris is at her most mediocre to me, Stevie is inconsistent (That's Alright , well, it's ok, but it's not alright in context to the rest of the album, too country sounding IMO for that album). I love how Lindsey kind of did a slight 50's doo-wop sound to the album, and Empire State is one of my favorites by him. I love to crank it up! I think it's totally energetic, creatively produced and manages to make the best use of Lindsey's somewhat manic energy of just about any one of his songs! Won't anyone agree with me?!? I f*cking love it...LOUD!!!
