Why do we like this?

Words can't accurately describe how much I love this band. The Whitest Boy alive have been my accompanying soundtrack for countless events, a go-to band when it comes to social gatherings.

One of my favorites is the last track on Rules, a slow-jam titled "Island." For some reason or another, the song works like magic when it comes to signaling the need to line up a new album. Consider it the bell to my Pavlov's dog.

In light of that, you can no doubt understand how upsetting it was to learn that late last year the band decided to call it quits. Ah well...at least I've still got #flashbackfridays to bring this back to your attention.
