'More Adventurous' is the third full length album released by Los Angeles based band Rilo Kiley. The album, released on August 17, 2004, marks a significant change in the band's sound with the goal of being "more adventurous" than their previous music. The effort paid off by increasing the group's audience and garnering critical praise; noted rock critic Robert Christgau called "It's a Hit," song of the year for 2004[http://www.rollingstone.com/artists/rilokiley/albums/album/6375373/review/6486761/more_adventurous.

Two versions of the album were released: the regular store-sold version in a normal jewel case and a limited edition digipak version (1,000 copies) sold at the album's release party and concert.

"Accidntel Deth" was produced by Jimmy Tamborello, known for his work in The Postal Service and as Dntel (which explains the unusual spelling of the title).

"Ripchord" and "It Just Is" were written in response to the death of Elliott Smith.

"I Never" and "Ripchord" were included in several feature films including Must Love Dogs, Conversations with Other Women, and John Tucker Must Die. "Portions for Foxes" is included as part of the Rock Band 3 soundtrack.

It's only doubts that we're counting On fingers broken long ago. I read with every broken heart We should become more adventurous. And if you bannish me from your profits And if I get bannished from the kingdom up above I'd sacrifice money and heaven all for love. Let me be loved, let me be loved And if my brain quits Well, then I guess then that's just it. And if my hands stop working then you can call me lazy. And if I get pregnant Then I'll just have the baby. Let it be loved, let me be loved I've been trying to nod my head But it's like I've got a broken neck Wanting to say "I will" as my last testament. For you to be saved and me to be brave We don't have to walk down that aisle Cause if marriage aint enough Well, at least we'll be loved. I've felt the wind on my cheek Coming down from the east And thought about how we are all Numerous as leaves on trees And maybe ours is the cause Of all mankind. Get loved, make more, try to stay alive. I've been trying to nod my head But it's like I've got a broken neck Wanting to say "I will" as my last testament. For you to be saved and me to be brave We don't have to walk down that aisle Cause if marriage aint enough, Well, at least we'll be loved.

"More Adventurous" is a song by a wonderful band called Rilo Kiley. It is also the title of their album that was released in 2004. This was the first time to actually sit and play the song in its entirety. There are some mistakes, but please don't hate ;) Hope you all enjoy the video!
