The rest is still strong material, just more somber.

I'm glad it doesn't have the same feel - Wakin on a Pretty Daze was pretty long. Really damn good (and still better than this one), but long. And it's the kind of long where I'm glad there's not another album like it that I have to digest, because that's exhausting. I listened to Wakin on a Pretty Daze over and over just to let everything sink in. I'm not in the mood for more of that...I'll just go back to Wakin on a Pretty Daze if I want that sound. B'lieve I'm Goin Down is immediate like Smoke Ring for My Halo, but has a much more relaxed vibe like Wakin on a Pretty Daze...so it's a winner for me.
