I don't think I own an album where the single has been my favourite by the end.

I don't know what this album is like. The only evidence I have as to what Stadium Arcadium is going to be like is the first single. So if I don't particularly like it, isn't it normal to hope that the rest will be better?
In regards to the Chilis, it is pertinent to note that the first singles off their last two albums were 'Scar Tissue'/'Around The World' (Californication) and 'By The Way' (By The Way). With the exception of the excellent 'Scar Tissue', there were many better songs on both of those albums. Anyway, I think 'Dani California' is rockin'. That guitar solo at the end of it melted half...oh, wait...Yeah, that's a good guitar solo at the end there. (Is that OK, Doom?)

You could still say it, but say 'literally' so we know it didn't actually happen.

I'm with the dudes who think that using the word 'literally' in a figurative sense makes a great case for incoherency. Oh, wait. I think that's what your saying, too. Wait...Uhhh...Hmmm...Dunno.
"That guitar solo at the end of 'Dani California' just melted half my face off. Don't be alarmed. I still have my whole beautiful face intact. I just mean that the guitar solo is really good. I'm speaking figuratively, do you understand? I hope you do. Anyway, it's a great solo. You should listen to it. The End."
Would that work?

Yeah.

So, after mistakenly going to my closest record store on Monday in anticipation of getting the Chili's new album, I finally got a copy of it today! Which is not weird seeing as today is the actual release date! Yag! Toot! Grakumo!
Anyway, I've only had the time to listen to the 'Jupiter' side so far, but alls great sofa. I immediately like 'Snow (Hey Oh)', 'Slow Cheetah', 'Especially in Michigan', 'Wet Sand', and 'Hey'.
I'll get back to you people when I've had time to digest the whole thing.
Oh, and it's called 'Stadium Arcadium', if you didn't know...
I'm hoping on buying it sometime next week, i'm a little tapped out on account of the tattoo costing 50 dollars more than expected
I cant wait for the tour, because i live in Anthony Keidis'(sp??!) home town (Grand Rapids, MI), and his mom is still living here, i think. So its always a special show when he comes back here
