Mmmkay

Personally, I can't see how anyone could dislike any of these songs. I'm left in paralysis, because I don't know what to vote off.

Breathe is very easy to dislike, what with those silly verses and some of the album's more obvious throwbacks to HTDAAB.

No way is it on the level of the other four songs here.

Breathe is easily their best rocker of the 2000s, sans NLOTH. Which, I don't know, I find Breathe more colorful and entertaining. It's just a fantastic feelgood track.

NLOTH II and Native Son are the best 2000s rockers, if you ask me.

Have you received your platinum Hive membership yet? I hear we get a Lovetown pro-shot DVD.

I fucking made that DVD, man. That's why it doesn't have any hits on it. All deep cuts, all Lovetown, all the time.

I like all of these as well, but something has to go. At this point for me it's a toss up between Breathe and Magnificent. They are both good songs, but the other three are just in a different league.

I wouldn't call it their best, but I agree on all the other parts. I just love that track because it's so uplifting. Makes me smile every time I listen to it.

Agreed on the first part. But to me NLOTH2 beats out pretty much all their rockers, lol.

Such a shame that it's so close. I hope Fez survives. Man, people have been bitching that U2 make the same sounding songs every time, rather than making special tunes. Then they make Fez-BB, which sounds like nothing they've done before.... and people prefer a generic cliche pop song like Magnificent over it? Which sounds like everything U2 have done before?

Don't worry baby, it's gonna be all right. Uncertainty can be a guiding light...

U2 has a great many generic cliche pop songs dating back to 1981 that are a bajillion times better than Pez: Being Boring, so what's another?

Fez is aimless, goes nowhere, and will be lucky to make it to Disc 2 of the Best Of.
