Last Exit vs. Today

Post by **stip** » Wed September 06, 2017 12:08 pm

Today is another one of those baffling Siamese Dream singles choices. Last Exit destroys it

I always liked Today, but not it's no Last Exit.

Baffling how? Today is freaking sweet. And it along with Disarm were my introduction to SP. Last Exit is probably better, but I'll always love Today.

Yeah, Today is great, not baffling at all as a single choice.

Last Exit smashes it out of the park, though.

Today by the longest possible margin.

Today was a hugely important song in my adolescence. Still, Last Exit is better.

Yeah, it's a bummer that Today found itself up against such a powerhouse. Today is one of the SP songs I probably would have voted for had it been up against many of these other tracks. Ah well.

I think I've made my distaste for all things SP pretty clear, but I'd be remiss if I didn't say that Today sucks so hard. So, so hard. I'm getting a tad angry just thinking about listening to it.

I voted Today. last Exit to me is not a standalone song, but its a great album opener

Last Exit is one of the best Pearl Jam songs, so that.

And as much as I too wish Silverfuck and Geek USA were the singles for Siamese Dream, they'd have never gotten the airtime Today did.
