1. No rule that a reference can't be subtle! Agree that it's probably not big enough to warrant a place in the poll or be discussed in any interesting manner though.

  3. Also voted for Lights of Home. Just like with Iris it's at the end of the song and nothing more than a small addition to the song, which doesn't really have an influence on the song musically, but lyrically it's a nice connection. For American Soul I think it's just lack of inspiration or something, I can't understand they really opted to use that silly lyric again. With 13 songs on the album I just think of American Soul as a bonus track, I don't think they should have put it on the main album. I actually liked Volcano, but it's not a song that deserves a spin off or somerthing. Probably no (released/finished) song should have a spinoff. For me it also ruins 13 a bit. It's a lovely song, but the 'Song for someone' lyrics makes it hard for me to enjoy. Well, maybe it will change with time.
