yeah, I love the album too. it's good his sound is changing, if he made another album just like his others it would be nothing special, because we've already heard it before.
the only song I don't like after three listens of the album is ICAY. BB, DAD and GT are the best.

What are the essentials from this album? Which songs should I go out of my way and buy?

ocean eyes was perfection and i loved his sound in it, but i like that he's trying new things ..!! 
he might go back to ocean eyes after a couple albums, but till then TMS has me! i love the songs, the production! his voice has certainly gotten a lot better and stronger!!   the album was worth the wait tbh!
and i know, ICAY is the worst one!

 But ICAY is one of my faves from the album... It's so catchy, it could slay on radio.

I still use Sky Sailing.  Adam's acoustic side is just as fun and bubbly as his pop side. I just love how diverse he is, musically.

I'd say Silhouette is #1 must-listen. Metropolis, Bombshell Blonde, Dreams and Disasters, Dementia, Gold are also standouts. But tbh, I'd recommend the whole album. Everything sounds pretty amazing.

   Top of the World fits in so well with the rest of TMS! I'm surprised it's just a bonus track.

i dont know, i dint like it one bit!  it might still grow on me, all my reviews are based on my first listen!
and i dont still use sky sailing, but i would buy the next album, if he decides to continue it! 
i loved his acoustic sound too, it fits his voice !

#1 in Canada
Although I'm still not as impressed by this as Ocean Eyes/Maybe I'm Dreaming, I'm liking it a little more.
My favourites are Bombshell Blonde, I'm Coming After You, Silhouette, Metropolis and Speed of Love. The Shooting Star EP disappointed me. I think the songs on there are 4 of the worst on the album
Hopefully this holds up better than ATBAB.
