And not based on intelligence

Somehow you managed to evoke optimism and sadness at the same time - wow, kinda profound

Absolutely right!!

What does it say about humanity when we stop doing the things that make us human?

Hmmm - how do you pick one track from this masterpiece? Sometimes it’s Harborcoat, except when it’s So Central Rain, or when it’s Camera. Or Rockville.

To me it is having values, and then living life accordingly.

I think that if each of us did a nice thing for a random person each day, we’d be a *much* happier society.

Wow, very nice! I wouldn’t even come close to using up the alphabet. Of yours, I’ve seen only Violent Femmes, and X, somehow missing REM and Talking Heads, two of my all-time faves. I guess Feelies is always possible - 48 years and going strong in NJ and NY.

Both really excellent albums! Translate Slowly is fantastic too. There are two albums after those I’ve never listened too.

I just listened to this album (as Zeitgeist) and the following 2 Reivers ones the last couple of days - one of my favorite bands 😊
