Claude says:Howie Day's major label debut was recorded at Olympic Studios in London with Martin Glover (who'd produced The Verve's Urban Hymns) and was certified platinum despite critics calling it pretty but impersonal. A few plays in 2008 didn't stick, but it took hold that November — five years after release — and has had several periods of attention across the years, including renewed interest in 2020 and brief returns in 2023 and 2026.
