I gotta go with Kitchenware & Candybars and Song for Sleeping.
They sell their words but it\'s all a lie . . .

Awhile back, when you typed in stuff like "STT" and "ILS" the boards would automatically change it to "Sex Type Thing" and "Interstate Love Song" - it was kind of nice.  But I like it, too.  :D  Haha.

It was nice, especially when I had to type SLDD all the time. I kept forgetting how to spell it correctly.

You notice I didn't go through the trouble of spelling it this time either :)

Black Again has always kind of been a theraputic song for me.  My other favorites lyrically are Still Remains, Adhesive, I Got You, Wonderful, and Hello it's Late.

Overall, I enjoy the lyrics off of Tiny Music the most. Such poetry. I got a picture of a photograph. Who the hell can come up with that?

Yeah, Tiny Music is really where it's at for the lyrics. Practically the whole album is just phenomenal lyrically. Adhesive is definitely a standout among standouts, but all the songs on that record are great.

Point taken.

My vote is still for Tiny Music though :)

Still Remains hands down for me.
But, I will agree that No.4 is Scott's best album lyrically.

I agree on both counts. But I also love the imagery of the TM lyrics and the openness of the SLDD ones. Hell, they're all great - there's something quotable in nearly every one.

i've always been very fond of the lyrical content of the chorus of "Still Remains"... however, ILS and Wicked Garden are my 2 favorites.

I've found that my appreciation for the lyrics of particular songs changes at different points in my life. Right now I'm really into Trippin'.
