I hate ILoveMusic, it's got too many POLLS - Artist Poll #104 - THE REPLACEMENTS - RESULTS

I'll return and endeavor to get through to #16 in about 7 to 8 hours, but I'll drop one now, if only to check the image.

THE I DON'T CARES ‎– Born For Me
from Wild Stab (2016)
Score: 53
Votes: 2 (0)
Youtubet: audio track

I’m interested in how 2 votes equal 53?

33 + 20, it seems.

Anyway, I changed my mind. I'll post this three-way tie before wandering off.

PAUL WESTERBERG ‎– Knockin' on Mine
from 14 Songs (1993)
Score: 54
Votes: 2 (0)
Youtube: audio track

Enjoying the rollout, thanks Nag. Concur that it’s a good thread title.

Is it wrong of me to think the solo stuff titles and covers look like artifacts from a fictional or parallel universe?

Tommy Stinson was a really cute young man.

Easy, Action!

That SNL performance of Knockin on Mine just rips.

Actually getting curious about the band track results now. Which of the underreleased tracks make the cut, which favorites rise and fall.

I only voted for two solo songs, but I just remembered one I shoulda voted for, "Silent Film Star".

cosign Tommy’s cuteness

HI DARE!

So much Replacements discussion on that other thread! Bless.

PERFECT - Better Days

Score: 55
Votes: 2 (0)
Youtube: audio track

So strictly speaking the Perfect album was recorded in 1997 and went without an official release for years?

Correct.

PAUL WESTERBERG ‎– Mr. Rabbit

Score: 56

Another first-place vote there.

Incidentally, there was another off-by-one error in the opening post. 12 voters in this category, not 11.

I'm really digging this part of the roll out, it puts a spotlight on lesser known gems

Thanks again Nag

I'll dash away briefly for breakfast. In the meantime here's Tommy demonstrating a flagrant disregard for occupational health and safety.

Score: 62
Votes: 2 (1)
Youtube: audio track

^ #21, dammit.

I believe I was the first-place vote here, fairly lazily. It feels like I've dug the pretty yet kinda morose vibe since I was a baby.

An enlightened (?) attitude towards “errors”, flubs, “mistakes”, and perfection for me was part of their charm and part of what made them unique. The anti-Steely Dan maybe? Something like that anyway.

Let's say that my incessant typos are a crucial extension of that.

A slightly tricky one...

PAUL WESTERBERG ‎– Outta My System (2008) / THE I DON'T CARES - Outta My System (2016)
from 49:00 (2008) and Wild Stab (1993)
Score: 64
Votes: 2 (0)
Youtube: Paul Westerberg / The I Don't Cares

The only merger I ended up going ahead with. One vote for The I Don't Cares and another for "49:00" where the 'Outta My System' segment was explicitly cited as a major reason for its appearance.

I couldn't find an suitable index within "49:00" just now. Maybe one of you has such information at hand? LOL

Okay, it starts just before the 26:00 minute mark.

:)

I demand typos and randomly ranked 70s AM Radio staples for the remainder of the rollout!

Very well then, hopefully there's a bbcode error in this markup, for starters...

PAUL WESTERBERG ‎– Best Thing That Never Happened
from Suicaine Gratifaction (1999)
Score: 64
Votes: 2 (1)
Youtube: audio track

*triple-checks spelling of the album title*

“My Dad” sounds like “Positively 4th Street,” no?

I can definitely hear that now that you mention it.

"Outta My System" actually first appeared on Peter Gammons's 2004 jock rock compilation album Hot Stove, Cool Music Volume 1 alongside fellow jock rockers The Pearl Jam, The Allan Brothers Band, and The Little Feats. So technically Paul got it outta his system 3 times (49:00 version's the best though)

Jock rock!
