Inspired by the Backspacer thread. We'll keep it open for about a week and tabulate the results for you fine folks.
Rate the songs as great, good, average, below average.
Great: Black Oceans Porch Release Garden
Good: Alive Why Go Once Jeremy
Average: Deep Even Flow
I was going to put Jeremy lower, but I do remember loving that song once upon a time before I knew who PJ was.

I'm going to be interested to see what the consensus is on Oceans. Always been one of my favorites, but I can see the argument that it doesn't fit on the album.

Probably more than any album ever, trying to rate the songs on Ten feels virtually impossible. I feel like I've heard these songs all way, way too many times to know what I genuinely feel about them anymore.
I'll say this, the only ones I'd look forward to hearing in concert would be "Oceans," "Garden," "Deep," and "Release."
