Needless to say, whilst I enjoy Avery Island, I cannot fathom why people would believe it to be better than IAAOTS.

And please dont regurgitate the 'matter of opinion' shit at me, I know it is, and this is just mine.
I just tend to replay it more. I think I like them both on a par but tend to lean towards OAI because of Naomi, which would probably appear in my top 10 songs ever.
