Red Mosquito

How the hell are you people putting Garden and Low Light as the worst? Y'all just have bad taste, freakin' whackos.

Fuck it, songs I'd take off each album:

Ten - Garden (fuck y'all)
Vs. - Animal (my first love with PJ)
Vitalogy - Tremor Christ (best song on the album)
No Code - In My Tree (personal favorite)
Yield - Low Light (fuck y'all)
Binarual - Insignificance (best song of the MC years)
Riot Act - Help Help (coolest song on the album)
Avocado - Parachutes (love it, especially the demo from gremmie)
Backspacer - Got Some (only song I like)
Lightning Bolt - Mind Your Manners (best song on the album).

9. Gonna See My Friend
10. Future Days

I don't really see a big distinction between "real songs" and what other consider "not real," so that's why I felt okay with putting "Stupid Mop," "Lukin," and "Soon Forget" up there. The "Red Dot" song, on the other hand, actually feels like it's meant to be an interlude, not a fully realized thing, so it got a pass. If pressed to stick to the "real song" formula, though, I guess I'd go with "Betterman" and "Thin Air" for their respective albums. I still think "Lukin" is meant to be a full song, so I stand by that one.

Leash and Given to fly?!?! Wow.

My pick one weakest song:

1)Deep
2)WMA
3) Stupid Mop (duh) If I have to pick a "real" song let's go with Whipping
4) I'm Open
5) Red Dot (If I have to pick "real" I'll say Pilate)
6) Soon Forget
7) Bushleaguer
8) Parachutes
9) Force of Nature (has PJ ever sounded more tired than this on a supposed "rocker"?)
10) Future Days (duh)

*I don't hate Get Right anywhere near as much as fandom. Bushleaguer, Green Disease and Help Help are all way weaker RA tracks. McCready shreds on Get Right and for that alone it gets a pass.

**Parachutes isn't a bad song, it's just not Pearl Jam. It would be fine on a Stone solo album. Ditto "Soon Forget".

I still like "GTF" for the most part, but I've gotten pretty bored with it. It's my least favorite of the anthemic tunes on Yield, none of which are among my favorite songs on the album. I tend to prefer the more introspective or oddball songs like "Wishlist," "Pilate," and "Low Light." Then again, my favorites change a lot on Yield, so that's just at this time.

I've never really liked "Leash." I considered putting "Elderly Woman" or "Blood" there, because I'm not overly fond of those songs, either, but ultimately went with the one I've most consistently had a hard time with.

Top songs that should have been on each album but weren't

Ten- SOLAT
Vs- Alone
Vitalogy- Hard to Imagine
No Code- Brain of J
Yield- Parting Ways
Binaural- In the Moonlight
Riot Act- Other Side
Pearl Jam- Cold Confession
Backspacer - Of the Earth
Lightning Bolt - Every Rose Has It's Thorn (Live)

Worst:
Ten - Why Go
Vs - Blood
Vitalogy - Stupid mop (if i have to pick a real song, i guess Whipping)
No Code - Habit
Yield - Red Dot (if i hve to pick a real song, probably puch me pull me, but it hurts me)
Binaural - too tough... probably of the girl but i still really like it
Riot Act - Can't Keep (hate me)
Pearl Jam - Comatose
Backspacer - Supersonic
Lightning Bolt - Future Days

Comatose is great on shitty speakers.

Parachutes the worst song on Avocado? What are you idiots smoking?

Best:

Black (yes, yes, cliche, but it's so good people, its just so good...)
Indifference (Hard to pick from an album with so much good stuff)
Corduroy (obviously)
Present Tense (obviously)
Given to fly (erm...obviously...)
Light years (cos it gives me a lump in my throat - and musically, a lump in my trousers...)
Thumbing my way (everything about this song is perfect)
Come back (the only song I'd give more than a 4/10 on Avocado)
The End (cheesy, but heartfelt)
Getaway (miles ahead of the rest of the album)

Worst:

Even flow (zzzzz)
Glorified G (love this song, but had to pick one...)
Mop
Mankind (needs Eddie!)
Dot
Evacuation (its fine, but a bit all over the place...)
Help help (ugh...really...so much filler on riot act...)
Gone (if even flow is zzzzz - this is loud snoring...)
Force of nature (just a bit...meh)
Yellow moon (only the bridge saves this song from being incredibly dull)

Release - Timbaland
Go - Meg Myers
Nothingman - Bruce Springsteen
Smile - Charlie Chaplin
No Way - The Naked & Famous
Light Years - Theophilus London

Supersonic - Oasis
Lightning Bolt - Jake Bugg
