Got Some vs. Sweet Lew vs. Habit

Habit's day has come.

Hmmm. I like all three of these. Sweet Lew is goofy fun, but it's clearly outmatched.

I think I like Got Some a bit more overall. Despite its terrible lyrics and one of Eddie's most mismatched vocal performances of all time, there is such an infectious energy to it that it's an easy song to feel good about.

Habit has the better main riff, but that endless shrieking drops it down quite a bit. But there is nothing in this match than Habit's outro.

Hmmmm. I'll give Got Some a listen and see where I land. this is very close

Ohh, I forgot how much I like the start of Got Some. Yeah, despite its flaws I think it edges out Habit.

Man, i haven't listened to backspacer in years.

Habit rules though so i dont need to.

Habit's a song I've gradually liked more and more over the years. Easy vote for it against these other two.

I just gave GSMF, Got Some, Fixer, and Force of Nature a listen.

Backspacer rules in its low key way.

Habit is one of their best songs.

Got Some has made a couple of Top 32s, but otherwise mostly bails after a round or two.

Sweet Lew got two attempts at round 1 in 2014 due to a mistaken duplicate entry. It was smashed by both You Are (70 - 3) and Elderly Woman (57 - 4).

Habit has never made a Top 32.

There's not that many line ups where I'd vote Habit so strongly, but this is one of them.

Or it's their worst.

habit vs comatose vs FoN, Joe - which do you choose?

Habit is one of the few PJ songs I actively dislike.

The ending of Habit is cool, but the vocal delivery is very bad.

Love everything about Habit.

Force of Nature

Getting the "Who You Are" b/w "Habit"' single in 1996 was such a cool moment -- it seemed so crazy that these two songs were by the same band and were going to be on the same record. Neither seemed like familiar territory for the band; "Habit" in particular seemed ravaged and unhinged in a way that even something like "Blood" or "Spin the Black Circle" wasn't. Those songs felt like high-energy shrieks; this was a ravaged, guttural wail, shredded and beaten down in a way you could just feel in your bones. That was a wide-eyed 13 year-old's reaction, anyway.

"Got Some" is like the quintessential PRAMG song -- I like it, it's super catchy and fun, kind of punky/poppy/kitschy, etc. And "Sweet Lew" is...some of those things. But my vote goes to "Habit."

Got Some is definitely one of the best songs on BS, and I've always really liked that first performance of it on Conan, Ed's raspy voice and all. Gave me really high hopes for the album.
