"That's Why God Made the Radio", "Think About the Days" and "Spring Vacation" (as heard on a Dutch radio) and the merged snippets of Amazon and iTunes added up to 22 min 20 s.

If you add those new 30 s samples for the songs we haven't heard in full, and these snippets are things we hadn't heard before, you have to add 9 times 30 s = 270 s = 4 min 30 s.

So technically we've heard 26 min 50 s of a 38 min 53 s album, or 69%. More if you count the Mike-only version of "Daybreak"...

When I first heard Shelter I felt the melody was somewhat reminiscent of some part of All This is That.

am loving it all, except PLOBAS is not happening for me.  Are there any albums where we love 100% of the songs?

Abbey Road?  hate maxwell's silver hammer and won't listen to "Oh darlin" though I danced to it in 8th grade.

In short, I do not expect total, "Dark side of the moon" bliss, but I am 90% there. Hope the private lives grows on me. Nothing yet. The rest is divinely inspired.

I'm limiting the amount that I listen to the "pieced together" album. None of the songs are really "fresh" in my mind. I want at least some surprise when I hear the album in full. I don't want to get used to the pieced together version at all. I don't want the real album to sound weird. That's bad lol.

it's good to know that they rerecorded at least some of Daybreak, but they got rid of Christian's part in the intro which sounds really Carl-esque..

Actually Shelter sounds to me most like Save The Last Dance For Me...
