I'd call myself a fan for sure. I think Steven Page is one of the better pop vocalists going until his coke induced break down. As Pete said clever lyrics. Granted the last album I bought was Everything to Everyone/2003. I enjoyed a few diddies on that one, Upside Down was fantastic and they even pulled out the accordion ala They Might Be Giants on a track that was also very good.
