Your friendships will get tangled like tagliatelle, and it will be a challenge to keep straight the crushes, the feuds, the screen names.

...with a few oohs and aahs, and he saves Lovers in Japan from his own clichés ("Lovers keep on the road you're on/ Runners until the race is run") just by opening up his throat and letting loose. On Strawberry Swing, Martin not only turns in a nice lyric ("People moving all the time/ Inside a perfectly straight line/ Don't you wanna just curve away?") but coos in a way that sounds like the perfect day he's describing, while Buckland plays a single guitar riff so softly and sweetly, you hardly notice when your feet leave...
