00's Contest to Feed the Polemic

[MacPhistoPT]

Okay, one more contest, and this one is to continue with the polemic over ATYCLB and HTDAAB. I'm doing this to see which has more love around here by the facts of the numbers.

1) 10 points
2) 9 points
3) 8 points
4) 7 points
5) 6 points
6) 5 points
7) 4 points

Can I just ask since you haven't pointed it out, can I include Electrical Storm, since it was recorded in 2002. Also, why no 'Mercy', out of curiosity?

4. Love and Peace or Else
5. The Ground Beneath Her Feet

If Electrical Storm is allowed, it would place SECOND, pushing all except BD down one place.

[MacPhistoPT]

I forget to say, Electrical Storm and Hands That Built America also aren't allowed. Only because this contest is to evaluate the diference between ATYCLB and HTDAAB and so I think that it's better to count only with the album songs and single b-sides.

I notice that I've got 6 ATYLCB songs (4 in my top 5) and only 4 HTDAAB songs, but I'm still sure that I like HTDAAB better. I'm a total sucker for that album. It's very rare that I can listent to a couple of songs w/o playing the entire album.

 

[Sevikins]

Darnyouall!!!
I equally love both albums so it's deathly hard to choose!

But I suppose... I'll go with HTDAAB

1. City of Blinding Lights
2. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
3. Love and Peace or Else
4. Vertigo
5. All Because Of You
6. Yahweh
7. Miracle Drug
8. One Step Closer
9. Original of The Species
10. Crumbs From Your Table

A Man and A Woman was okay but just didn't make the list.

 

[Exit thru Wire]

Currently 7-3 to HTDAAB

Currently 7-3 to HTDAAB

But people only like the songs off HTDAAB because it's the latest...

 

[Sevikins]

Not true. I love ATYCLB too but I just prefer HTDAAB more right now. Who knows? Opinion may change in the next month when I listen to ATYCLB more than HTDAAB.

What's your picks Roy?

I was just taking the piss out of a previous patronising post. I love HTDAAB, I posted my choice earlier.

 

[Sevikins]
