Buy the same exact EP online from the artist's record label (Sub Pop) for far less money than Amazon wants for it. What a rip-off!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Overpriced, but contains my favourite Iron & Wine song, November 11, 2004

This review is from: Passing Afternoon (Audio CD)

Passing Afternoon has the most beautiful lyrics of any song I've ever heard, and Our Endless Numbered Days is one of my favourite albums of 2004. This single also contains two non-album tracks, Communion Cups and Someone's Coat, which is only 2 minutes and 2 seconds long but is my favourite Iron & Wine song of all time, and Dearest Forsaken, which would have fit nicely in Our Endless Numbered Days, which is to say that it's good but doesn't stand out. That being said, this is the most expensive music I own in terms of price per unit time, >$10 and clocking in at only 9:08.

5.0 out of 5 stars Is the price for this a mistake?!?!, February 7, 2006

Three fine songs from Iron and Wine. One giant rip off from Amazon. Get it on iTunes Music Store for $2.97, as it should be.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Single, Bad Price
This is worth buying, it has 2 b-sides that are great. It's especially worth buying because at some point I'm sure it will go out of print. However, don't buy it here. Read more
