I'm curious... what was the song that officially hooked you? I was late to the game myself. I first heard The Great Defector and The Ribs of a Broken Umbrella on WXPN out of the University of Pennsylvania. I dug both (and managed to score free downloads via Amazon), but I was a passive fan until a friend turned me on to Phantom 105.2. I'm ashamed to say that I didn't officially declare myself a true fan until 4 Minute Mile was released, but I blame the relative ignorance of American commercial radio for not recognizing that Bell X1's music is incredible. I'm making up for lost time now, though!
So, was it love at first song, or did it take a tune or two to get reeled in?
