I notice that an awful lot of people give an awful lot of the SOTMs five stars. I rarely give such high praise. Maybe it's grade inflation or something (you kids are so fucking spoiled).
Anyway, I was thinking what few PJ songs I have given, or would give, five stars in a poll.
Sad
Insignificance
Sleight of Hand
Parting Ways
In Hiding
In My Tree
Corduroy
Immortality
Rearviewmirror
Even Flow
Black
Release
It's funny, the albums I like best are often the one with fewer five star songs, while some of the ones that I like less have several. I think it's a matter of consistency.
Anyway, I consider 12 songs out a catalogue of well over 130 songs to be a pretty exclusive club. How about you? How exclusive is your club?

I was just thinking the same thing. I'm stingy with my five stars too. Lots of fours but only a few fives:
Alive
State of Love & Trust
Breath
Yellow Ledbetter
Nothingman
Immortality
Long Road
In My Tree (original)
Light Years
Parting Ways
High fours would include (off the top my head) Once, Given to Fly, In Hiding, Grievance, Save You, All or None, Comatose, Do the Evolution, I Got Shit, Porch, Hail Hail, Off He Goes, Man of the Hour, All Those Yesterdays, Jeremy, Lowlight, Corduroy, Betterman, Sad, and Love Boat Captain.

21 songs. But a good argument can probably sway me to say five stars for another ten or so.
