    Frail State of Mind and I Think There’s Something You Should Know are two of my favorite songs from this band. They almost always get play from me whenever I want to listen to this band

    Other songs from Notes that I go back to outside of the context of the album:

    People
    Nothing Revealed / Everything Denied
    Tonight (I Wish I Was Your Bod)
    Shiny Collarbone
    If You’re Too Shy (Let Me Know)
    Having No Head
    What Should I Say?

    "What should I say?" goes so hard

    I’d say ‘don’t worry’ is the only song I’m never really into. As a whole it’s bloated, but it’s so varied I don’t get bored of it when it’s on for the most part

    Frail state is a top five song for me.

    Back half of Notes is my preference, but it probably is the album that I revisit least for a full listen.

    I'll write you into all of my songs Supporter

    Packaging isn't great but love that it's recycled materials and the actual vinyl is quality

    Yeah I think I tossed the case thing it came in but the sleeve itself is nice enough

    I do hope we get the digital artwork in physical form at some point

    I actually love the packaging of notes personally, dig the minimalism, dig the environmentalism aspect, and I find that it fits the album rather well for whatever reason. I never felt too strongly about the digital cover either really.

    Sung like that it almost sounds like it would fit perfectly on a Chris Stapleton album

    Not a cover or anything; just a song/band I think most 1975 fans should enjoy

    I played it today. I love this album front to back as long as I skip Greta.

    Wonder if the next album cover is thematically similar to BFIAFL to keep that going

    We reach for the longest shadow

    Just popping in to say "What Should I Say" is my favorite song to test bass with new headphones/speakers.

    Not that I'm in the know of what every band does live, but even looking at the vinyl cover of the 1975 live at madison square garden gets me hyped - that stage show was just simply amazing, and one of the best, if not the best, setups I've ever seen. I went in blind and as it was all coming together, it was just bliss.

    Add to that a banger of a setlist and it's up there for one of my favorite live experiences.
