Holy smokes, Elbow is fantastic! Bit different mood, but Lippy Kids is another great song!

Yep. They've been good since 'Any Day Now' opened up. And the fact that a song like Lippy Kids can be their single for the new album just shows how comfortable they (and their label) are with what they make. That one isn't a favorite of mine this time around. I even skip it just becasue it's so slow. I'd take 'The Birds' anyday, or 'High Ideals', both the best on the new one IMHO.
