This CD is absolutely amazing. It's not quite as loud quick as their previous album, but it's great for it. There're so many good songs that are unique and I'd never even expect from this band. Here are some of the best songs in my opinion from the CD.

52-50 - It's an 8 minute song with one of the best saxophone solos in the beginning and after every chorus. Very relaxing. I rarely have the patience to listen to a song for this long, but it puts me in a great mood even though I don't know what the songs really about.

Love and Memories - It was originally my favorite track on the album but I played it way to many times. Again, the chorus is amazing.

Tragedy in Waiting - The beat and tune to it is very fun listening.

Wonderful Day - This songs more like the songs of their previous albums - very upbeat and a quick tempo.

Definitely download or buy this if you have a chance.

I've heard that "Love & Memories" song, and it's ok I guess.

O.A.R. is one of those bands that my friends from home in the midwest love, and I (usually) cannot stand.

I'm no music snob though, so what do I know.

its a good CD, definitely a different style for OAR

OP - where are you from? I think OAR started gaining national attention as they started gettting less attention from their original fan base... i remember OAR concerts were the place to be back in HS, nobody i know really listens to them much anymore, though.
