Yellow Ledbetter vs. Devil Doll vs. Hitchhiker vs. Whale Song

Post by **stip** » Fri March 29, 2024 11:48 pm

Yellow Ledbetter is top 3 most beautiful songs they've ever written (along with Nothingman and whatever I want number 3 to be in a given moment)

Devil Doll is a serviceable cover, Hitchhiker is a song I actively dislike, and Whale Song is a weird oddity. No hesitation here

You fool!

Anyway, yes, that's my vote.

Hitchhiker it is though when all is said and done I am sure Yellow Ledbetter advances - a b-side organic hit song.

Love Hitchhiker!!

That was from a period where Ed was just writing a shit ton of songs... ah, sigh

Whale song is underrated and it’s oddness is its charm

God damnit.

This tournament always seems to remind me how good this band was/is. At one point it felt like this band could write any type of song at any fucking moment and blow me away..

Fuck covers.

Devil Doll isn't even PJ playing. Why is it here? Thats Ed and the supersuckers.

Gotta go Ledbetter here but Whale Song and Hitchhiker are fantastic gems.

If the 7 Whale Song voters want to make this a real contest, they should switch their votes to Hitchhiker, since WS ain't gonna win.

I’m to the point I pretty much hate Ledbetter. Go Hitchhiker.

Hitchhiker

Ledbetter is fine, but I think I'd like it more if it had proper lyrics
