My thoughts today

10. Swallowed Whole 11. My Father's Son 12. Let the Record's Play
Wow, Yellow Moon really dropped for you, didn't it? Am I remembering that wrong? I thought you were over the rainbow about that song.
Those top 5 are all pretty interchangable. They're all 4.5 star songs for me. Ask me on a different day and it changes.
Fair enough. I just thought I remembered you talking about Yellow Moon like it was your favorite PJ song in a long, long time. Like, since Vitalogy. Maybe I made that up. I get confused. A lot of people post, yaknow.

Great:
Sirens Swallowed Whole Pendulum My Father's Son
Very good:
Getaway Sleeping By Myself Yellow Moon
Good:
Lightning Bolt Infallible Mind Your Manners
Not awful:
Future Days Let the Records Play
My list is just about a mirror image except LTRP will always be above Future Days for me. The "Great" songs are spot on.
Some days LTRP is above FD; they're both jostling for last place.

The songs on this album are starting to fall into place I think.
Songs I want to listen to: Pendulum Infallible Yellow Moon Sirens
Songs that if they came on I'd listen to and enjoy: Getaway My Father's Son Mind Your Manners Swallowed Whole Lightning Bolt Future Days
Songs that aren't offensively bad, but I have no desire really to hear: Sleeping By Myself
Songs I'll automatically skip: Let the Records Play
Still definitely way above expectations.

10 days later....
1. Pendulum 2. Infallible 3. Sirens 4. Getaway 5. My Father's Son 6. Sleeping By Myself 7. Yellow Moon 8. Lightning Bolt 9. Mind Your Manners 10. Swallowed Whole . . . 11. Future Days 12. Let The Records Play
I really like those 10 tracks...better than anything outside of The End off the last album.
I don't think my rankings have changed in the last month....still really enjoy 10/12 songs on this album. And i can tolerate Future Days more now that i could initially.

this is where everything is sitting for me, gang: 1. pendulum 2. yellow moon 3. getaway 4. sirens 5. mind your manners 6. swallowed whole 7. lightning bolt 8. infallible 9. my father's son 10. sleeping by myself 11. future days 12. let the records play
sleeping by myself really doesn't fit with the theme of the rest of the album and it's inclusion is ridiculous.

16th of november 2013: Yellow Moon Infallible Pendulum Getaway Swallowed Whole Lightning Bolt Sirens My Fathers Son Let The Records Play Mind Your Manners Sleeping By Myself Future Days
30th of January 2014: Love: Yellow Moon Pendulum
Really like: Swallowed Whole Infallible Getaway
Like: My Fathers Son Sirens Lightning Bolt Let The Records Play
Not so much: Mind Your Manners Sleeping By Myself Future Days
Infallible was my first love on this album, but it hasn't quite lasted. I still think it's a decent song, but if it pops up on a random playlist between strong songs, it seems out of place. Yellow Moon, Pendulum, Swallowed Whole and My Fathers Son are the songs that have grown in appreciation. Didn't like MFS too much at first, but now it's nearly in the "really like" bracket. I can appreciate slow songs as much as anyone, but I don't think SBM or FD adds much to the Pearl Jam canon.
