So you could like Buffett but not Prince or R.E.M. or The Beatles? There is something wrong with you bro.

Quick one from The Hold Steady:

3. "Don't Let Me Explode"
4. "Chips Ahoy!"
5. "Multitude of Casualties"

10. "Party Pit"

I lean toward Separation Sunday as my Hold Steady album, for sure. Awesome album.

Shit! I forgot "Loss Leaders"!! Put it somewhere in the top ten and bump the rest down one.

How can you make a list of top Spoon songs and leave off "Anything you Want" and "Jealousy". They have a lot or really really good tracks. Good lists guys, it gives me some things to listen to again, and some obscure things to hunt down.

"Anything You Want" would certainly be top 30. "Jealousy" never did a thing for me. Ba-ding!

1. "Cattle and the Creeping Things"

I think I remember seeing someone elses list (maybe eric's?) that also had this track at the #1 spot. What an amazing song that is! Pretty hard to beat these lyrics:

"I was seeing double for three straight days after I got born again.
It felt strange, but it was nice and peaceful
And it really pleased me to be around so many people
Of course, half of them were visions
Half of them were friends from going through the program with me"

10. "Your Little Hoodrat Friend"

But my favorite by them is "Positive Jam"! It's so witty... and depressing.

Mason Jennings in order....

1. "Sorry Signs on Cash Machines"
2. "Southern Cross"
3. "Lemon Grove Avenue"
4. "California"
5. "Be Here Now"
6. "Butterfly"
7. "Adrian"
8. "Forgiveness"
9. "Killer's Creek"
10. "If You Ain't Got Love"

Yeah, "Cattle" also topped my Hold Steady list which is somewhere several pages back. The lyrics to that song are great, which is saying a lot since all their lyrics are great.
