Happy When I’m Crying easily. One of the most underrated songs of the band

I am saying the same about Drifting. A unique risk for them at the time.

Happy is also good though.

This is the weakest matchup this bracket.

I don't like You. Yield had the crappiest b-sides of any record that had b-sides.

Happy When I'm Crying is a fun diversion the rare times I hear it.

Let Me Sleep is a rawer performance than Drifting, and probably has a higher ceiling, but Drifting is good campfire fun, and the song this matchup I am least likely to skip.

Tough one. I love the OG driftin from the Xmas single.

BUt Happy When im Crying is a fierce band afraid of absolute nothing.

Yeah, this is a great match -- four quirky tunes that explore four dusty corners that I wish they'd found their way into more over the years.

But I too voted for "Happy When I'm Crying," the dustiest of these corners.

I was torn between Driftin' and Let Me Sleep, two songs I like a lot. I ended up going with Let Me Sleep...it just has such a specific vibe that strikes emotions I dunno how to word lol.

I just listened to Happy When I'm Crying for the first time and I can't say Im happy with these results
