I argued in some thread that there is much less consensus regarding what the best songs are on Backspacer then there are on other records. Lets find out. Rank the songs on backspacer in the following way Good/Great songs Average Songs Below Average songs I'll leave this open for a week or so and then we'll tally this up (3 points for good/great, 1 for average, 0 for below average) |

Good/Great: Gonna See My Friend Got Some The Fixer Johnny Guitar Just Breathe Force of Nature The End Average: Amongst the Waves Unthought Known (kind of above average but definitely not as good as the ones above) Speed of Sound Below Average: Supersonic |

There should be a fourth category for terrible songs. |

The only song I really don't like is Force of Nature. I don't get the love for that song. |

Three categories really isn't enough. I mean so many of these songs fall between categories. |

Good/Great: Great-- The End Really good--Unthought Known Good--Just Breathe (on its way to average though, probably) Average: Amongst the Waves, Got Some, Speed of Sound Below average: Force of Nature, Johnny Guitar Down right bad: Gonna See My Friends, Supersonic, The Fixer I can't get either Speed of Sound or Force of Nature in my head. They might be the other way around. Or maybe both should be below average because I can't even place them, that's how forgettable they are. |

I like the percussion and piano parts. And the lyrics are great. I kind of like the verses and that piano is cool, but to me, the chorus and outro sound too much like that cheesy Inside Joby crap Mike's been writing lately. |

I downloaded all the episodes after they aired in the UK. Pretty hilarious stuff. Although Karl's constant bitching and moaning can get tiresome. |
