Re: Everyone's someone and with the [cardboard box]


  • Subject: Re: Everyone's someone and with the [cardboard box]

I liked the Warm Jets album a lot but no one I've ever
played it to has ever liked it that much.  Actually
that's sadly similar to the Blue Aeroplanes, although
I've never thought of them being similar before.  The
Warm Jets album has a great feel to it though.  And I
do like the line "The internet says: don't worry,
love, about the changes that are changing your life"
but perhaps you have to hear the song to understand.
