how i'd rank these songs:
Dino > Sonic > Pavement > Puppets > FB

how i'd rank their parent albums:
Sonic > Puppets > FB > Pavement > Dino

how i'd rank their overall catalogs/careers:
Sonic > Dino > Puppets > Pavemnt > FB (solo)

tbh I could listen to all five of these songs on an endless loop all day long and it would be close to my idea of heaven.

Was going to go with "Headache" over "Cut Your Hair" because "Headache" is by far my favorite FB song of that period while "Cut" isn't even top 3 on its own album, but I gotta say "Cut Your Hair" is by a nose the better track. "Shrine" and "Seether" would also have been contenders for me here.

I would happily listen to ENBB's list all the way through.

i'm OK with these results actually -- i started buying Pavement albums because "Cut Yr Hair" and "Stereo" were super catchy songs, eventually realized i kind of hate them and most of their songs, but still really like those songs

Haha, you act like Pavement fans are the most disgusting savages or something.

I forgot to vote in this poll, but I probably would've voted "Cut Your Hair," too. It's the first song I ever heard by Pavement, who would eventually (three years later) become my favorite band, and as some dude points out, it's one of their best. These days I probably like Sonic Youth better as a band, but "Bull in the Heather" (which was also the first SY song I heard) isn't as good of a song. As for the rest, "Headache" is great and the other two are all right, but I'm not sure I've listened to any of them within the last 10 years.

Not disgusting savages at all. I've just never really liked Pavement although I will admit that "Cut Your Hair" is catchy.
