I got a big goddamn kick out of seeing it live a few years ago. I get what you're saying, Stip. There is something about it that's so unapologetic and goofy about it. It's a terrible song but a hard song to hate. But it can't begin to compare to the other songs of its era. |

I find it rather easy to hate. |

I just ranked the songs in another thread: 1. All Or None 2. Love Boat Captain 3. I Am Mine 4. Thumbing My Way 5. Can't Keep 6. Save You 7. Cropduster 8. 1/2 Full 9. You Are 10. Arc 11. Green Disease 12. Ghost 13. Get Right 14. Bushleaguer 15. Help, Help That got me thinking about retracking the album. I can hardly make it through Help, Help. But even songs like Ghost and Green Disease are songs I enjoy. I would say both have greatness in them, but falls a bit short. I do like the b sides though, especially Other Side. I know when it comes to mood and lyrics there may be some complaints, but I'm mostly going for a good sound. Songs that fit together sonically. 1. Get Right 2. Ghost 3. Undone 4. I Am Mine 5. Thumbing My Way 6. Can't Keep 7. Save You 8. Other Side 9. Love Boat Captain 10. You Are 11. Cropduster 12. 1/2 Full 13. Down 14. Green Disease 15. All Or None |

I dont like Riot Act but I do love love love All or None. Thumbing my Way is my second favorite Save You, Can't Keep, and Love Boat Captain are all good. Otherwise I dont like much but I think Get Right would be good on a stronger album |

I really thought we turned a collective corner here at RM regarding Help Help. I'm absolutely devastated to see so many people still standing at the station instead of hopping on the train. |
