It's been almost exactly 10 years since I wrote this review of Neutral Milk Hotel's album In The Aeroplane Over The Sea. 10 years! That album hasn't meant any less to me after all this time. The review could have used a good editor; I'm an incorrigible putter-inner who relies on the help of a strict taker-outer. But it still got halfway to expressing the way music makes you feel like you've just fallen in love, or witnessed a miracle or are living in a poem. Not bad, old self, not bad.

Don't feel so bad, I just realized my 20 year high school reunion is this year.
God I love this album. 'Oh Comely' gives me chills every time I hear it.

It was that album that first got me interested in Anne Frank. It's the first album I lost my inhibition with and danced to at a house party with my best friend like no one was watching. And it's the album on my ipod right now.
