fucking adore this record. Goodbye Sky Harbour opened my goddamn mind musically. Start to finish it's a beautiful album.

Happy birthday to one of the best albums there is. Goodbye Sky Harbor still leaves me either smiling from the beautiful sounds or emotionally wrecked from the hard-hitting lyrics. And this is why I love 90s emo music.

The overlaying vocals at the end... fucking eargasm.

On a Sunday is amazing. Table for Glasses too. I can’t get into to much else they’ve done but that album is great.

My fave next to this is Futures. It's not the same but I love that album. It's what first got me into JEW

Fantastic album. I used to listen to it all the time at work. I'd listen to it when I was studying or doing homework because it was chill enough to not be too distracting. I love everything about this album.

Have you guys heard the new(ish) acoustic version of 12.23.95? Also fantastic:

 

And I've been in love with this version of For Me This Is Heaven for a long time now:

 

 

For any ska fans out there, a band called The Holophonics did an entire ska/reggae  version of this album, and I think it's actually pretty awesome:

Wanted some music on during work today, decided to throw this on because of the recent anniversary. I always forget how much I adore 'Blister' until it comes on. Hot damn.

That song is one of the main reasons I became a Jimmy Eat World fan. It's really hard for me to pick a favorite track off this album, but that might be it.

And when the "don't try and stop me because I'm falling fast" background vocals come in... oh maaan

But Elisa -

How long would it take me to walk across the United states, all alone?
