This is getting to the point where I'm going to have to officially declare it my favorite of his.

There is a lot of BPB out there. What is his new album called? I picked up a copy of the Stay 7" and I enjoy it more than I've enjoyed other BPB that I've heard. Is that track on the album?

'The Wonder Show.'
I've bought it, listened to it once, and just..... wow. I'm completely bowled over. It's amazing.
The lyrics are as close to poetry as songs get. And the whole thing, even though the songs are in a jumbled order, follow a consistent narrative as if this was a concept album.
An absolute classic. And the songs are so moving, I think I would've bawled my eyes out if I'd been listening to this on my own.
