Two more songs I like a lot. Initiation has that great video and infection chorus, and some wonderful lyrical moments (like a friday fashion show teenager freezing in the corner, trying to look like you don't try). It's probably the superior composition, but Uberlin just cuts right to the chase and is catchy and compelling in such an immediate way despite the distance and mystery in the song that it just barely gets my vote

Two quality post-Berry tracks, I probably seek out IOL more and voted for it, but have no problem with Uberlin.

I love Uberlin but Imitation of Life takes this easily.

i've always thought imitation of life was overrated. maybe it was because it was one of the few standout "hits" on an otherwise underrated album.

but uberlin is just a wonderful song. it's just better.
