Having just had an opportunity to really listen to Good News For People Who Love Bad News I realized why I like it so much. When I listen to the Moon and Antarctica it makes me almost embarrassed to hear what Isaac is saying because it is so pessimistic and such a negative reaction to what was going on in his life at the time. On Good News Isaac has written another very personal album that reflects his life, but this time it is extremely optimistic and hopeful. "Float On" is an amazing song full of optimism which has never been present in his music before. There are still some songs that are angsty and moody but they don't feel as personally painful as they did on the previous album. Instead they are just good songs that flow seemlessly into every other song on the album.

About Me
I'm a 32 year-old dude who is happily married to his best friend in the whole world and just welcomed a beautiful little girl into our happy family. I love playing softball, basketball and soccer despite my amazing suckiness at all sports. I'm a shining example of what one can accomplish after six years of college without earning a degree.
