I voted for Dude Ranch Nurse and Reena. Kim seems to get all the best songs on the recent albums.

Wow, four songs off of Sonic Nurse already placed, with at least a couple of more to show I am sure.

really nice range of tracks so far

Mark my words - "Rain on Tin" in the top 25

lol listening to Stones right now, one of three Sonic Nurse tracks I wish I wouldve voted for

Feel like Rather Ripped and The Eternal were getting a fair amount of love in nominations thread, but I guess a whole lot of stuff was getting love. Not that surprising to see a lot of the later stuff show up at this point, wonder how much will crack the top 25 though.

TOO LOW!!!
Thought "Genetic" was going to be a sleeper hit ....
― grandavis, Monday, 13 May 2013 18:09 (thirteen years ago)
Sorry Lee, did not vote for it (above the other songs of yours I voted for).
― grandavis, Monday, 13 May 2013 18:10 (thirteen years ago)
When they moved more towards a traditional rhythm/lead setup in their later days, I sometimes hoped they'd go whole hog and actually play more 'real' guitar solos. I think "Stones" could work interestingly with a Verlaine/Lloyd-style solo instead of that repeated melodic phrase.

Kudos to whoever #1ed this song.

Listening to "Stones", I'm rethinking that, actually.

I didn't vote for "I'm Insane" but it's awesome, yeah.
Hah cool!

They kinda fucked up when recording that, lotta instruments falling out of sync in a bad way. Cool epic Lee jam though.
― seanpennderizer (some dude), Monday, 13 May 2013 18:58 (thirteen years ago)
Honestly I'd have dug NYCGF way more if there'd been little tono singing
― Beatrix Kiddo (Raymond Cummings), Monday, 13 May 2013 19:04 (thirteen years ago)
The album not the song
I voted for it! Love it, partly from live performances I saw of it I guess, but I always liked that record fine.

OTM. Was pretty grand live.
― EveningStar (Sund4r), Monday, 13 May 2013 19:08 (thirteen years ago)
I never noticed that, and I love that song. It was my number 5.
― ArchCarrier, Monday, 13 May 2013 19:10 (thirteen years ago)
I mean, with something like this, it can be hard to tell if it's intentional so it may be best to give the benefit of the doubt.
― EveningStar (Sund4r), Monday, 13 May 2013 19:13 (thirteen years ago)
I had it pretty high, mid-ballot somewhere. Partly love it cause of just how miserable the reception of this record was as well. A defiant fan boy's enthusiasm or something like that.

That's actually one of the tracks I kind of enjoy from that album.

If one of the voters (not Alfred) hadn't put it at 2(!!), it would have barely made the top 100.
― ArchCarrier, Monday, 13 May 2013 19:21 (thirteen years ago)
These tunelets MAKE the album imo

I didn't vote for this, but I approve this placement. It's a great song

"Waist" is another one of these tossed-off punky songs that I can enjoy.

― Beatrix Kiddo (Raymond Cummings), Monday, 13 May 2013 19:38 (thirteen years ago)
everything's falling in very sensibly. "genetic", "i'm insane", "androgynous mind" and "nyc ghosts & flowers" = good tracks that tend to get overlooked in favor of the classics, but not top 50 material imo.
― controversial vegan pregnancy (contenderizer), Monday, 13 May 2013 19:38 (thirteen years ago)
"flower", otoh, deserves a lot more fuck love. like, for instance, i should have voted for it.
