As a side note, The Kids Don't Get It is maybe the craziest i've ever heard Gord non-live, I don't see how anyone can not love it.
When I heard In View I too thought it could work in the US; but after hearing the rest, I don't think so. Not to say I don't like it, but I've been avidly playing Tragically Hip for my American friends for years and only a few have caught the same fev-ah.
The Kids Don't Get It isn't as crazy as Gord's vocals in Drop Off. ("Holy fuck it's Jesus!") but it's one of my favourites.
It's almost too premature for even me to be releasing this load but here it is "in a very particular order":
In View (Don't understand the criticism-great song and obvious pick for single)
World Container
Rink- much better than I remembered it in Milwaukee
Fly (Love is to try... die trying!)
Family Band
Kids
Luv (sic)
Last Night
Ocean-
Pretend- agree that it could've been much better
Drop Off- Don't like Gord's voice in it, maybe it'll grow
It'll change.
