I like these rankings for the biggest part. Low Light and MFC are some of the best songs in Yield. Glorified G is underrated too.

This is the kind of stuff I am talking about. I love Glorified G, it's one of my favorites on Vs. The No Code and Yield rankings are highly unusual. MFC is another song that I usually rank higher than most, but even I don't think it is the 2nd best song on Yield.stip wrote:Vs.

My Yield rankings probably change more than any other album, J, so don't take it as definitive. For a while, I would place "MFC" as my favorite, and then I was really digging on "Wishlist" after that. While I was putting this thing together, I was also realizing that in a lot of cases, even the stuff I ranked near the bottom of a particular album were still quite good songs.
I even realized that as far as Backspacer is concerned, an album that I sometimes call the band's worst, there's only four songs that I really outright dislike. Don't take it as hard and fast, or as me condemning any particular songs. The most insightful thing it might tell you is that I have sort of idiosyncratic taste. You can confirm that by checking out pretty much anything I've ever posted in the "Other Bands" section

which 4 on Backspacer?
And wishlist is also my number three on Yield. It might even be two.

But Wishlist/Given to Fly are really pretty interchangeable. Depends on the mood. GTF was once definitely ahead but it's lost some of its luster and on a given day I may well prefer wishlist.
