I think that there was a thread on this within the last 6 weeks or so, but I can't find it through search. Does anyone remember this? If this thread does not exist, please give your favorite b&s song. I'm partial to "get me away from here, I'm dying." My tastes are more melodic than lyrical so I may not find many supporters for this song. I also like "If she wants me" off of "Dear Catastrophe Waitress."

Tough. I don't have their catalog in front of me.

Offhand it would be "Me and the Major" or "I Could Be Dreaming."

"I don't love anyone" or
"Seeing other people"

You Should Seriously Consider Listening to the Beatles.

"get me away from here i'm dying", and it isn't even close.

probably a top 20 song of all time for me.

and one i plan on using in soundtrack if i ever end up making films. provided that bastard wes anderson doesn't trump me yet again.

It's a 5-way tie:

1. This Is Just a Modern Rock Song
2. Dirty Dream #2
3. Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying
4. I'm Waking Up To Us
5. Legal Man

And anyone who answers a song off of Dear Catastrophically Disappointing Album should be shot dead on the spot, and their carcasses fed to boars.

Is this band big now, then? They were my fav my sophomore year or so, since then I've kind of dropped out of the music scene. I've never understood the comparison to Nick Drake, though, they arent' much alike. Best song? I don't know. Tigermilk's probably the best album, though, I'd say.
