I think “No, You Don’t” might be my favorite song on the album

That's just a very unexpected choice for #1. What's your rolling top 3, or 5?

Hmm. Probably:

No, You Don't
Starfuckers, Inc.
The Big Come Down
We're in This Together
Somewhat Damaged

You?

Phil Collins's Face Value has way too much meandering padding, and the sequencing feels all out of whack. If it were the following tracklist, it would probably be one of my favorite albums.

1. In the Air Tonight
2. Tomorrow Never Knows
3. This Must Be Love
4. Thunder and Lightning
5. The Roof is Leaking
6. You Know What I Mean
7. I'm Not Moving
8. If Leaving Me is Easy
9. I Missed Again

That was really tough!

PS - You lovers of The Fragile really should check out Peter Gabriel's 3: Melt.

This trag guy is all right. I'm glad we could all agree on We're In This Together and
The Big Come Down. I really wanted to include Even Deeper and Somewhat Damaged too.

The only one I could do without is the Beatles cover, I've heard that song too many times in my life. But the rest of the thing is tops.

There's a lot of stuff I really like on U2's Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience, but there's also a lot of stuff I don't like. So I combined them into one album: Songs of Innocence and Experience.

1. 13 (There is a Light) [Edited to fade out after "someone like me" at about 2:40.]
2. Raised by Wolves
3. Volcano
4. The Showman (Little More Better)
5. California (There is No End to Love)
6. Red Flag Day
7. Sleep Like a Baby Tonight
8. Cedarwood Road
9. Every Breaking Wave
10. The Troubles
11. The Crystal Ballroom
12. Landlady
13. This is Where You Can Reach Me Now
14. Song for Someone

I love the R U Talkin' R.E.M. RE: Me? podcast, but most of the time they play song snippets, I find myself flummoxed as to how anyone could think they were a great band. But after the recent Accelerate episode, I came away for the first time thinking, "I could listen to this." So I did. And I really like most of it. But, boy, a couple of the songs are real clunkers that really drag the whole thing down.

So I reimagined it as a tight, punchy, 25-minute experience, and I think it works a lot better now.

1. I'm Gonna DJ
2. Living Well is the Best Revenge
3. Supernatural Superserious
4. Man-Sized Wreath
5. Sing for the Submarine
6. Accelerate
7. Horse to Water
8. Houston

I love "Accelerate." It's been too long since I've listened to it.

"Supernatural Superserious" is such a great pop rock song. If it had been released in, like, 1994, it would have been a massive hit.

It's definitely better than Reveal. But does best any of their others?

I think I'd like LV's version here a lot.
