Copeland Band • Page 15

Here's my 15-song playlist

Brightest
California
Coffee

Choose The One Who Loves You More
Love is a Fast Song
You Have My Attention

Love Affair
The Last Time He Saw Dorie
When You Thought You'd Never Stand Out

Good Morning Fire Eater
Suitcase Song
On the Safest Ledge

Disjointed
I Can Make You Feel Young Again
Erase

 

We have lots in common. High five

 

Related to our World Turn discussion and brilliant use of sax, I recommend this song:

 

I guess I'll try this, I'm just doing the tracks in the order they appear on the record though because actually ranking Copeland songs just feels wrong.

Beneath Medicine Tree:
When Paula Sparks
California
Coffee

In Motion:
No One Really Wins
Don't Slow Down
You Have My Attention

Eat, Sleep, Repeat:
Eat, Sleep, Repeat
Control Freak
Love Afair

You Are My Sunshine:
Should You Return
Chin Up
To Be Happy Now

Ixora:
Disjointed
Ordinary
Chiromancer

I will say, choosing the Eat, Sleep, Repeat songs was the hardest.

 

Same BMT songs!

 

That Paula Sparks to California is still my favorite thing this band has done, I think. And this band has really only done good.

 

A-MEN!

 

I think we can agree that the little "sleep now, moon" pause then comes back in heavy is one of the best things ever.

 

Nah.

 

A highlight of every time I've ever seen Copeland.

 

Yep, you know it's coming and it's always great.

Hey, there's a reason they still play When Paula Sparks and never play Kite.

 

silly fans

 

Correct* fans

 

song makes me cringe.

 

Ugh

 

It was tough, but I chose what I thought were the most important tracks for each record, songs that define each record.

 

Well, no arguments here!

 

This thread inspired me to listen to their albums today. It's weird, each one is my favorite while I'm listening. I really do like most of their songs equally (which is a lot), and even their "bad" songs are terrific (besides "Walking Downtown," that is actually just bad).

Thank you all for reminding me how much I love this band!

 

Love ixora, I forgot how beautiful the orchestrated parts are on this record

 

SpyKi's strained relationship with "When Paula Sparks" and everyone's insistence on its greatness is quickly becoming my favorite thing on this thread.

My opinion is that it's a solid song. If I made a medium list it would probably be on there. But I feel pretty indifferent to making a medium list since a medium list is basically indifferent in and of itself.

 

Most medium Copeland songs (by album):

1. When Paula Sparks
2. Sleep
3. Where's My Head?
4. To Be Happy Now
5. Lavender (cuz the weakest song on Ixora is still medium)

 

Last post because triple posts are lame. Just wanted to say, I always got the words wrong in Sleep when I was younger. I always thought Aaron Marsh was singing, "Will I wake to find you eating by my bedside? Will I wake to find you eating by my side?"

I always pictured his wife with a bowl of cereal munching in a chair by his bed. And I genuinely thought it was romantic.

 

Like a lie grooves so hard. That whole 4 song run at the end of ixora is incredible.

 

i don't think most of BMT is good but at least it's a decent beginning to a great career, basically anything ESR on is what I listen to except for a few songs

 

That is actually a trumpet, not sax. Still a great song and band though.
