I don't think I could choose one over the other because both hold much significance to me. Painter is a great album. "Much To My Surprise" I would consider a love song. "Drifters", "Much To My Surprise" and "On Yonge Street" are great, great songs. Painter was released when I was at the top of the world and it brings me back to some of the best times in my life.
Harmony was released during one of the most distasterous times of my life and I can really relate to a lot of what he is singing about. The songs "Harmony", "End Of All Time" and "Sometimes I Wish" will be forever etched into my brain. No way I could ever pick one album over the other. Both are very different and written under much different influences.
