You Are is wonderful.

Marker has remained my favorite song off S/T since the first time I heard it. Just an absolute banger.

Marker wins.

For a while there was this received wisdom that "Marker" had amazing verses and a wimpy chorus -- is that still a commonly held view? I love the chorus to "Marker."

I used to think this, sometimes still do, but then I hear when it descends into the pre-chorus(??) and Ed sings "What went wrong...." and Matt crashes into that chorus, I'm like "awwww yaass."

Glad I'm not alone! I think this is still a "You Are" vote for me, but I really love "Marker" -- it was my initial favorite song from S/T and I think only "Parachutes" has managed to eclipse it.
