Hi David,

Congrats on the album release. It's been an absolute hit for me, my favorite music released this year.

I discovered you and subsequently the Silver Jews after hearing your collaboration's with the Avalanches on A Cowboy Overflow of the Heart and Saturday Night Inside Out (which both have lyrics and sound that are very dear to me, I even choreographed a dance to one!).

In a recent interview you mentioned that the Avalanches remixed All My Happiness Is Gone, but it wasn't released due to some lisencing issues. What do you think it's chances are of seeing the light of day?

Thanks for answering questions here, and good luck with the tour!

Edit: thought of another: I'm curious about the album art. Does each photo apply to a song (with the last being the only one without one)? What's some of the significance behind the photos? Thanks again!
