Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not is great. "Fake Tales of San Francisco" is absolutely fun and always puts me in a cheerful mood—as does the rest of the album.

I wish I could say the same for Favourite Worst Nightmare. I found it both underwhelming and disappointing.

My thoughts exactly.

My dads big on jazz and avant garde jazz and everything and for a while this was one of his favorite bands, and he was always playing it in the car. I love it too, their must be something really good about but i just can't put my finger on it

FWN was a nice little change of pace. While it might not have been as great as "Whatever...," they changed their sound up a bit and didn't put out a simple rehash of their debut, which you have to respect. Plus, Do Me a Favour is the shizz.

Yes, yes it is. Possibly my favorite on the album though "Brainstorm" seems to be my most played.

Do Me a Favour is brilliant! I really liked Favourite Worst Nightmare but i'd have to say I prefer Whatever People Say I Am
