Good Songs on Backspacer: amongst the waves, unthought known

Great songs on lightning bolt: mind your manners, sirens, lightning bolt, infallible, pendulum, sleeping by myself, yellow moon
Good songs on Lightning Bolt: getaway, my father's son, swallowed whole, let the records okay, future days

Each if these records has two songs in or close to my top 25, but the last two have significantly more depth in terms of songs I really like. I rate backspacer and l-bolt as highly as I do because they are basically the only two post Vitalogy records I really want to listen to from start to finish. Even yield and S/t, which have more top flight songs, have a number of tracks I regularly skip.

Great songs on Riot Act (Talking 5 star songs here):
1. Can't Keep
2. Cropduster
3. I Am Mine
4. You Are
5. Help Help
6. Green Disease
7. All or None

Really Fucking GOOOOOOOD songs (Talking 4.5 or 4 star songs here):
1. Save You
2. Love Boat Captain
3. Ghost
4. 1/2 Full

11 out of 15 are either Great or damn near great. And none of the remaining are bad. That's a monster record, my friend.
