For best first lyric I'd probably go with Van Morrison - If I ventured in the slipstream / Between the viaducts of your dream / Where immobile steel rims crack / And the ditch in the back roads stop / Could you find me?
Yeah, Michigan is a great one too but I felt like Illinois expanded on all of the songwriting and stories told in Michigan to make an even bigger, bolder record. If it's a rainy day I'll always pick Michigan over Illinois, though. I had a really big Age of Adz phase too but I've never really felt like going back to listen to it since. It's almost too overpowering of a record

What an exciting day for that science team - "Oh, hm, what did we do today? Oh that's right, we found the biggest think in the universe is all. Here, pass me that beer." I'd like to know how there'd be an upper limit to how large a star cluster could be, though
