I had to go with Houses In Motion, but it was really close with The Great Curve.

Its a really great album. I decided I liked Cross-eyed a bit better than the others. I love this:

Facts are simple and facts are straight
Facts are lazy and facts are late
Facts all come with points of view
Facts don't do what I want them to
Facts just twist the truth around
Facts are living turned inside out
Facts are getting the best of them
Facts are nothing on the face of things

I've adopted that as part of my personal philosophy (along with Doug Adams stuff).

I went to see Mr. Byrne last monday in Prospect Park, Brooklyn. (If I jumped, I could get a glimpse of the stage.) They played several RIL songs cool! I actually only heard one old MLITBOG and one new song.

I have this somewhere, but I haven't listened to it in so long* that I can only remember 2-3 songs. If I can find it, I'll listen and vote.

*No, I'm not demented. I really haven't heard it in more than 10 years.

saying half i meant 4 songs

so four first songs are more funky, and i like it more, whilst latter four songs have darker atmosphere, closer to joy division.
