I just found out that the last bit is "believe"

...I just REALLY REALLY HOPE THAT THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ALIENS!
(as I'm pretty sure "I'm trying to believe" was a catchphrase for X-Files)

yea - it does seem that people will just automatically discount anything that's a double album... or really if the artist actually takes advantage of the available space on a cd and *gasp* actually fills it with music!

although - I will say, the Fragile was a very good album. If it was trimmed down to say... one 80min cd, and proper singles w/ bsides, it would've been a great album

and I kinda liked "Starfuckers" - as I always took it as an intentionally 'stupid song' know what I mean? Now - if the song was supposed to be serious... then that's a whole different story

(edit)
which reminds me... any chance someone could hook me up with either the Vinyl or Cassette versions of "The Fragile"? I never was able to track down the cassette (and I don't have a tape deck) and I couldn't find the vinyl version for a reasonable price
[if you didn't know - the cd, cassette, and vinyl releases of that album each were different. Apparently, some tracks are different mixes, have longer/shorter intro's or outtro's, and I think each of the three versions of the album have tracks exclusive to their format]
