Well, considering I only tolerate two songs on backspacer, I wouldn't call it a ranking

Truth. Amongst the Waves is my favorite song from an album that I wouldn’t miss if I never heard it again. I like AtW and Johnny Guitar and that’s about it.
how can you not like got some? it's probably the best thing that jeff has put out since pilate.
It’s just ok at best. Nothing about it particularly grabs me musically and the lyrics do nothing for me. And there is something about the vocal that I actually find a bit off putting. I can’t really put my finger on why I don’t like the song more, or even exactly why I have a negative feeling towards it, but it just doesn’t deliver anything that I feel the desire to go back to.

Got Some is not great. Not at all.

I don't remember Backspacer. Was that a PJ album? Can't have been with a name like that.

What would be better news for you guys? (1) that the band is done recording and releasing the album on [specific date in 2019], or (2) that BOB is not involved at all with the new album?

I know what would excite me more.

#2, but only if the new producer was worth a crap.
