    Opinion on what man? On the album or the sales?

    The sales I got nothing to say about... I don't care about sales.

    In terms of the album... my feeling on it is about the same now as it's been for a long time - a very solid, yet very flawed album. But, really isn't 1 weak song in the batch; there's a consistent tone and feel, consistent themes... and there's A LOT of very high-grade songs on there - Cold Wind Blows, Talkin 2 Myself, WTP (like, even the ''fun s---'' is great), Not Afraid, Space Bound, Cinderella Man, Almost Famous...

    I mean.. you just go right through the album, so much high quality s---. Concepts, stories, great stuff.

    Which is why it's such a shame about its flaws. I feel if it was reproduced, by maybe Em and the Bass Bros or just Em and whoever - produced properly, but by Alex a--- face and just the noisy s-----y tacky mess that it is... + modern Em rewrote some of his worst writing in history and some of the worst puns I have ever heard or I think could be conceived of... if those two things happen... it would be an amazing classic.

    But, even despite its flaws, it's a very satisfying listen and I don't think should get too much hate in terms of his catalogue. It was a bold new direction. People who say Em never changes or ''same old'... wtf are you listening to. Look at ''my name is''vs. ''not afraid''... may as well be two different f---ing people. I mean, that's just absolutely ridiculous, the degree of sound, writing and vocal change there.
