I love The Call, their album Reconciled is fantastic, there are no weak tracks and it sells for a bargain on Amazon.
The best tracks are Even Now, Everywhere I Go and I Still Believe (Great Design)but all the other tracks range from good to very good. Other songs that I like from the band are The Walls Came down, I Don't Wanna, The Woods, Too Many Tears, Walk Walk, Let the Day Begin, Communication, You Were There etc
This is what I have for the time being, I'm still looking for : The Walls Came Down: The Best Of The Mercury Years, I missed it a couple of times on ebay....

CALL (THE) INTO THE WOODS
CALL (THE) LET THE DAY BEGIN
CALL (THE) LIVE UNDER THE RED MOON
CALL (THE) RECONCILED
CALL (THE) RED MOON
CALL (THE) THE BEST OF
CALL (THE) THE MILLENIUM COLLECTION, BEST OF

Recently I chose to listen to my station from the German site rather than the American one coz there are no commercials and no limitation as far as the number of songs played is concerned. However, I have noticed that they have a tendency to play the same albums of China Crisis, Killing Joke, Billy Idol etc so I guess that their library is relatively limited. From time to time, they also throw at me stuff not related to the genre of my station when they are not supposed to do that. One explanation is that Launchcast insists on playing not only the highly rated songs but also songs and artists with low ratings or no ratings at all. I guess they need that for their feedback... So now I have decided to cheat their system and I don't rate songs which I like, anyway they will be replayed in the no rating category ahahahah. Anyway with 13,000+ ratings I'm pretty satisfied to control a big chunk of the playlist.[:D]

Hey thanx for your offer, maybe we can make an exchange if U can find something of your liking in my collection.

I've seen that it is available on Amazon for about $10 but only from the market sellers and they don't ship to the Philippines. The alternative would be to give the address of a friend based in Japan and then she would ship it to me. Anyway I guess it's better to talk through email.[:)]
