Add me to the list of people for whom 'Roam' is their favourite track on this album. It's not a track that I listen to often, but it's nothing but sheer joy when I do.

I would love to do "Roam" at karaoke.

Of all the albums I've had since childhood, this is easily my favorite.

10 months pass...

was about to revive this thread and say basically what I said a year ago so let me just go ahead and retract my earlier shot against "Bushfire" - it's a little overlong but the harmonies are gorgeous, as they are basically across the whole record. Never fails to make me feel good.

I have a hard time imagining many people who could hate this album

Would have undoubtedly voted for 'Roam', and am absolutely delighted that it topped this poll. Every time I listen to this track I think to myself "man, this really could NOT get any better".

that stuttering rhythm guitar lick on "Topaz" -- god, I love this record.

Topaz has been one of my go-to tracks ever since I started this poll: I never seem to tire of it

basically every song on this album is fantastic, except for "Deadbeat Club" which is merely good
