For awhile I was like the above poster...while I still loved the music the magic seemed to not be there as often after Day for Night. That said, Now For Plan A kicked my ass for some reason. For me it's right up there with Fully Completely.

Yes, the word is magic. I've enjoyed all the albums but some just don't have the magic that makes the earlier albums so great. We Are The Same, to me, was just not magical. So I didn't buy Now For Plan A until about 3 weeks ago. After I listened to it a couple of times I was wondering why I didn't buy it on release day. I didn't discover The Hip until a few months after Day for Night was released, but after that I bought all of the Hip's albums on release day except for Now for Plan A, which turned out to be one of the better releases over the past 3 or 4 albums. I won't make that mistake again, sadly, I only have one chance to get it right.
