I've been really hard on Sonic/Sonic related stuff in more recent years, but must admit that "The Best Day" is fantastic. The lyrics feel a bit lazy at times, but all in all I feel as if it's a breath of fresh air. Trace elements of Sonic Nurse beauty with dashes here and there of the jammy psyche that made A Thousand Leaves the perfect thing that it was, is, and always will be. I really feel Thurston nailed it on this one. Hope this signifies good things for the future. I do feel as if Thurston is in a great place and may be reinventing elements of himself as he ventures into a new era of his life. Not at all a bad thing. He's a cool mother fucker, despite anything I or anyone else has ever said.
