I'm opposite of that. For awhile, when I listened to You Will Go To Moon, I'd track up Sahara, Lee, and Love Set Fire and them head for a different CD. Even when I'm feeling patient and wanting to hear everything, I find myself skipping Your New Boyfriend and Boo Time off that album. Dunno. But Love Set Fire is my favorite on the disc (followed ever so closely by Sahara). Wood is still the only Fru-CD I sit down and listen to completely with any frequency.
