great album, and possibly the best album-opening line of any of the joos' wonderful album-opening lines

1. "No I don't really wanna die..." (<3 <3 <3)
2. "Where's the paper bag that holds the liquor?" (scene: SET)
3. "In 1984, I was hospitalized for approaching perfection..." (good but TRAGICALLY OVERRATED)
4. "When God was young..." (great song but takes a while to get going, musically and lyrically)
5. "What is not but could be if..." (haunts me, but doesn't do much more than that)

OTHER: "Hello my friends..." (as far as I'm concerned, "Trains Across the Sea" is the actual beginning of this album)

TN is good but really hard for me to listen to ever

understandable, it's real gutpunch of an album

back on topic: some days I think "You're a tower without the bell" is the meanest thing you could possibly say to anyone. or at least the meanest line Berman ever put on record.
