Parachutes is a top 10 song from this era for me. Severed Hand is not. It's a pretty decent song, but it's a midcard track.

I hope to say this again and again. And I have absolutely no problem with Parachutes being the pinnacle of PRAMG.

Parachutes is a thing of beauty.

The rounds have been set up by era, so something from the later years is destined to make it to (near) the end.

I think this is my first vote for Parachutes.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I seriously hope people don't actually consider Severed Hand or Parachutes to be the best PJ songs from the past 5 albums / 15 years!

I understand all that, but there's got to be at least 15 songs I like better from the recent years. Probably more like 20+ songs.

Totally agree! There is at least an album worth of material better than these 2 songs. Some could even argue better B-sides.
Nothing As it Seems stands out as a song which should have made it further. I also feel Riot Act is under rated.

It is hard to think... 5 albums and 15 years worth of PJ and Severed Hand & Parachutes represents that entire time frame.

Binaural and Riot Act songs lost to Yield. Parachutes and Severed Hand were only up against Self Titled, Backspacer, and Lightning Bolt songs.

Yep, and on those three records I can find at lest 15 songs I prefer.

I'm honestly just surprised so many people like Parachutes so much. Severed Hand is alright, but its surely nothing special.
