have.

Yeah, that's not bad either. The album that's off is quite
electronic (drum machines were used etc.)

"porcelina of the vast oceans".
is that on "machina", if so what number?

my favorite songs are 1,3,10, and 15 off Machina. they're
okay for a while.
i liked "eye" off lost highway.
and "1979" is a classic.

they wrote many great songs... almost too much to
choose from :-)

(the machine album is also excellent! My 2nd choice would
have been "heavy metal machines")

But if i have to choose one favourite... i'll pick "Thru The
Eyes Of Ruby"... it's just so beautiful!
