Take off Your Pants and Jacket Reviews:
Cool Jap. Import release w/+3 bonus tracks BUT... 
2001-12-31 - In case you didn't know, there are 3 different domestic releases of this album (red, yellow, green OR Plane, Pants, Jacket). It's a silly marketing gimmick that record labels like to do to make collectors crazy. Each of the 3 domestic releases has 2 different bonus tracks.
Now that's understood, let's talk about Japanese imports. What are they? They are more expensive versions (2-3 times) of the same album but almost always have bonus tracks (usually all the B-sides to the singles) that the domestic versions don't have to make collectors crazy.
This Japanese import does have more tracks than any other import or release but it still DOES NOT have all of 'em. There are 3 missing (4 if you count the enhanced video track from the Austrailian import) and there is plenty of space to put them on this disc.
In case you're wondering what all these tracks are, here you go:

Green Day Revisited
2001-08-24 - The good thing about bands like Blink 182 is that the energetic guitars and drums and the joyful-boyish vocals create catchy rock music. The downside is that it's the same over and over, song for song - they're hard to distinguish. So, like it's the case for Green Day and The Offspring albums, one entire album is too much. A few good songs spread here and there is better. A very typical song of this genre is the opener 'Anthem Part Two'. It is not bad at all but very typical, like a cliché. Tracks 2 and 3, 'Online Songs' and 'First Date', are nearly identical though and had better been left out. The best song on 'Take Off Your Pants And Jacket' is the SLIGHTly more sensitive 'Story Of A Lonely Guy'. Other highlights (or rather: 'slightly-above-standard-lights') are the hit single 'The Rock Show', 'Please Take Me Home' and the two more varied and artistic 'Give Me One Good Reason' and 'Stay Together For The Kids'. But... a couple of songs or maybe two would really have done it...
Best CD 
2001-07-22 - I thought Blink 182's "Take off your pants and jacket" was the best c.d. i have ever bought. The music is great and lyrics have a lot of meaning. This c.d. is more punk than previous Blink 182 c.d's which is great. I highly recommend the purchase of this c.d. BLINK IS THE BEST!!!
Its an awesome CD!
2001-07-07 - I have this CD and now its the only CD I ever listen to.
