Oh please post your own lists! I'm hoping it's a place where everyone who wants to can try to come up with their own personal ranking for the Pearl Jam canon.

I just know I'm going to forget a b-side or something along the way, and I appreciate any help in that regard.

But, yes, I want others to participate and post their own rankings.

I actually think it's really interesting to see that Stip and I have a lot of the same songs in our top 5 or 6 on each album, even if they're in a different order. I want to see what others think as well.

I think going through all the albums first is the best way, include lost dogs then we can figure out if there is anything we are missing

That's what I was thinking as well. I'm also trying to decide how deep we should go. What's included in the "official cannon?" Do outtake snippets like Evil Little Goat count? What about covers? Last Kiss seems like it should just because it was such a big hit, and their version is so well known. Crazy Mary, as well, even though they didn't write it. It's a Pearl Jam song, yeah?

But then what about other covers, like the ones on the Xmas singles? Should Love Reign O'er Me count?

I have no idea why, but Corduroy at #1 on your list surprises me. I figured top 4 or 5, but didn't expect #1. I think I thought Last Exit would be your #1.

My list might be getting done a bit different then Stip, i think the quality of the song probably effects my feelings on the song, but this is just my list of favorites, the ones id like to listen to the most.

So far the hard part is the fact that i feel bad putting songs like WMA and leash at the bottom, i really li,e them both, but not as much as the rest

In the end I'll be somewhere in between I think

Stip, what to the " -- " indicate on your big board? Drops in quality? Drop in grade? Are you separating out Great, Good, Average, etc.?

This might be the first ranking I've seen on RM that doesn't have Glorified in the bottom 2.
