I am a person who was a little put off by the soft and sometimes cheesy sounds of ATYCLB. That said, I find it easier to listen to now that it is not the latest thing they have done. I was listenning to it tonight and it really is not that bad. Most of it is quite good. But when it is bad it is REALLY bad. (i'm looking at you ELEVATION and PEACE ON EARTH). I think it just wasnt what I was expecting at the time. But there is no denying that Beautiful day is a great song, even if it has been played to death. And that is what got me thinking...

Maybe this has been done before but what if you combined the best of both 00s albums. What would your choices be?

Rule #1 - 12 tracks, no more, no less.
Rule # 2 - Bonus tracks dont count. (no TGBHF or FC)

I don't have my list yet but it would definately start with BD...great opener (way better than vertigo)
 
1. Miracle Drug
2. Vertigo
3. Beautiful Day
4. Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
5. City Of Blinding Lights
6. Walk On
7. Kite
8. New York
9. All Because Of You
10. Love And Peace Or Else
11. Crumbs From Your Table
12. Yahweh

Something along those lines, I really just made that up on the spot.

Well both bonus tracks could feasibly have ended up on their respective albums, so I don't see why they should be excluded.
