too bad this poll didn't take place a few years earlier so we could have had dozens of posts about how much people hated gbv

I like Tobin's songs on Alien Lanes a lot more than the ones on Bee Thousand.Especially "Little Whirl."

Hardcore UFOs is one of those GBV songs that is like A+++ best song ever if it gets in yr head but the recorded version is kind of disappointing to listen to (see also Teenage FBI and probably 6000 cooler more obscure picks that I can't remember now). Should still have got more than one vote, but I realise there was plenty of other awesome to vote for here.
I am sitting here staring at a 2-year-old poll going "oh! it's THAT one... no, it's THAT one... oh no way, it's gotta be...", which is maybe not the best use of a Monday morning, but hey.

The 'Directors Cut' version of BT is a true, modern psychedelic joy.

Every time I saw GBV in Philly he always played Echoes Myron because of the Liberty Bell line and everyone would go apeshit like it was an Eagles game.

Which is probably 5-6 times.
I just got suitcase 4 a few weeks ago and it’s pretty cool to hear a lot of these songs in their embryonic form. Some of them are kinda more straight forward than what they became eg “walls and windows” compared to “hardcore ufos”.
