The song the Mixed Tape lyrics relate to the show with Jack's Mannequin being similar with lucus in way of the storyline.

Advantages: Beautiful voice, uplifting, features the melodic sound of piano Disadvantages: slightly slower tempo than songs on 'everything in transit' album.
...Transit', In my opinion 'The Glass Passenger' benefits from some amazingly upbeat songs, and also some more sombre, heartfelt songs about Andrew's past experiences.

Smith (background vocals). Audio Mixer: Chris Lord-Alge. Arrangers: The Grooveline Horns; Patrick Warren. On 2008's THE GLASS PASSENGER, his second album fronting Jack's Mannequin, singer/keyboardist Andrew McMahon presents a vibrant set of emo-pop tunes. The survivor of a rare form of leukemia, McMahon imbues every song on PASSSENGER with an appealing amount of seriousness, as evinced in the urgent "Bloodshot" and "The Resolution," a hope-filled tune directly informed by his illness.
Album Reviews
Rolling Stone (p.71) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "THE GLASS PASSENGER is a candid portrait of survival that reunites McMahon with the piano rock of his old band Something Corporate....With plain-spoken songs like these, he's already made a more honest album than many of his emo peers." Spin (p.110) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[M]atching hyperemotional melodies with his tender voice on dramatic tracks such as 'Swim'..." Alternative Press (p.147) - 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "[I]ts lush instrumentation and fleshed-out arrangements realize his lofty goals....PASSENGER's music often feels like the soundtrack to a perfect California day."
