The Stone Roses (S/T)

What, no "Don't Stop", NBS?

No Adored either, which seems like a major oversight.

That's true. I remember the first time I played this album, and thought "Don't Stop" was actually still "Waterfull" the long version.

im moving away from manchester after living here for 6 years and now i really acnt wait to never have to hear these idiots ever again

too bad ten storey love song isn't on this one

so 'waterfall'

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Waterfall

The Stone Roses >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The Smiths

Okay seriously I have had enough of the suspense on this poll. I don't usually get like that about polls but this one needs to end right now. GET YOUR VOTES IN QUICK!

And imagine if we'd added Fool's Gold. I wonder what that might have done!

Please be advised that if She Bangs The Drums wins or even places in the top 3, I am going to do a giant "I Told You So" dance. Or else...I'll have egg on my face. Oh well. :)

i am surprised by the lack of love for she bangs the drums, maybe lurkers will vote for it.

I don't get it. It's the weakest song on the album.

this album is great top to bottom. perhaps not the most original album in the world, but it has a unique sound and the song writing is excellent. most of the b-sides from this era are fantastic too.

off the other album, but a great song and a great video

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

well that was unexpected

Good album. Fucking hell, this is a good album. Seriously.

"This Is The One" is surely the big surprise here.

Also, the "Waterfall" and "Don't Stop" fans were very loud in this thread, but they didn't seem to shape the results quite like I expected.

Also surprising that four people voted for "Elizabeth My Dear".

Paul Burrell voted 4 times

Okay well I had this feeling I Wanna Be Adored would be way up there on the top somewhere, but "This Is The One" at #2 is a surprising and welcome outcome. Yes, yes, "I Am The Resurrection" at #3...how bloody boring. I've felt that song was overrrated for years. Not that it's bad - nothing on this album is - but just way overrated.

A good number of votes here for plenty of tracks, though. I'd say ILM has done well on this.

Part of the reason so many people voted is also that this poll stayed in the new answers category for all the time, and the autobumping wasn't really needed in this case.
