4. The Least We Can Do is Wave to Each Other (122 points)

10. Present (12 points)

JB@ = I'm guessing your vote for "The Last" is a vote for "The Least We Can Do is Wave to Each Other" and not a vote for The Last VDGG album. Smile

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Yes, but as I said the album still gets better for me every year, and I enjoy the whole album, actually always enjoyed it completely alredy then when I did not like the aforementioned In Babelsberg, and especially did not like the last song On the Beach.

And having 2 of VdGG's best is at least something. I can't say this of any of the later VdGG albums.
