Having Vivian as the no.1 song on the first post is wonderfully contrary! Love it!

As I've mentioned before, the second half is much better, the songs seem to have a much higher re-listen value. Got sick of Distant Colours (though there was a recent session version that sounded really good, the guitar was great) and D&C - I like the Anchoress but her voice is so mannered, sometimes it gets on my nerves. Vivian loses as they couldn't be bothered to write a chorus.

I think the singles are so low down, as I'd heard them too much before the album came out, but I think my top 3 should've been the singles from this album
