While I'm not as much of a fan of TLFR as you are, that's exactly how I feel about the songs. I can listen to just about any STYLE of music. It's the vocals and lyrics that really pull me in. Sure, there are songs I like just becuase they sound good, but those are not the songs that touch my soul. I like some of the TLFR versions better because they accent the lyrics more as well.

Mine would have to be Have A Nice Day. The album just makes me cringe and I have never listen to it. Last Cigarette, Story of my Life and Welcome are just awful ... really awful. Crush would probably be not to far behind.

I'd say Crush, it was already a bit all over the place given that it was originally gonna be a Jon solo, then a completely different band album, before finally becoming what it was; but then there's also the problem that it sounds far too much like "We're going to attempt to re-write some of our old songs (e.g. LOAP = IML, Just Older = Blood On Blood), throw in a fair amount of filler, and make it sound more modern (for which read 'more poppy')". While I don't dislike it and it definetly has some good stuff on there, as a whole it just does the least for me
