The actual answer is 'all the songs.' But an attempt at a top 10 in some order would be: You Are Free The End is Beautiful Higher Devotion Littlething Chase This Light Dizzy Hear You Me Please Say No A Praise Chorus Futures
I will say this: for me, JEW is a band that has improved with time. I think Invented, Integrity Blues, and Chase This Light are their best work; I know most folks like Futures and Bleed American and Clarity better, but I just disagree. Those albums are close to perfect in my mind; their later ones ARE perfect.
A Praise Chorus Just Tonight... Invented The World You Love Kill Claire 23 Your House Evidence Episode IV HM: Night Drive, Futures, Polaris, GSH, Pretty Grids there is no way to make a top 10 of this band and be satisfied with it
Invented is honestly my favourite Jimmy by far. It's absolutely incredible. Chase This Light would be up there if they hadn't cut Be Sensible.
Invented is my favorite JEW album as well, and in a world before Julien Baker and Brian Fallon's solo work, it was #1 overall for a long time. It's still top 3 or 4 for me. It is literally perfect in my mind.
Heart is Hard to Find will probably always be my favorite Jimmy Eat World song, but, Dizzy is right behind it. That song fucking kills.
Jimmy Eat World is the best band in the history of the world at making slow to mid tempo songs. Their fast rock stuff is amazing, but when they slow down, they're unparalleled.
Now i’m trying to think of underrated scene songs and it’s 2 am and I have work tomorrow. Dizzy - Jimmy Eat World Gifts and Curses - Yellowcard That’s all I have so far haha
It was my #1 for a little while, where it just seemed like the absolute soundtrack to everything happening in my life. Not even just the big emotional stuff but the little moments too, that record seemed tailor-made for the whole experience. It's so tied to that part of my life that I honestly don't revisit it that much these days, but every time I do it's still a fucking great album.
Okay, off the top of my head right this very minute: 23 Dizzy Kill My Sundown For Me This Is Heaven Invented Work If You Don't, Don't You Were Good Always Be Alt: Pol Roger
I thought Dizzy was so meh when I was young and first bought the album not long after it came out. But yeah what a song, not one of my favorites but it has come a LONG way for me.
OMG Gifts and Curses. I was never even a Yellowcard fan but that song always blew me away. I even went to their tour in 2004 just in hopes to hear that song, and they actually played it! lol
ok top ten polaris clarity invented kill pol roger goodbye sky harbor let it happen movielike cautioners no, never that was extremely unsatisfying
I don't know how I would even begin to make a top 10 BUT I know for a fact "Polaris" is the definitive #1 for me
Fuck it 1. 23 2. Here It Goes 3. Polaris 4. Sure and Certain 5. If You Don't, Don't 6. Kill 7. Sweetness 8. Lucky Denver Mint 9. You With Me 10. Invented Nothing from Static Prevails or Damage for me boys
i nearly put "digits" in mine but i feel like the only person who loves that song(s) (it's at least three songs)
I'll take a crack: Table For Glasses 23 Polaris Big Casino Closer Oh wait This is so hard Why did I decide to do this There's so many good ones My Sundown HM: It Matters, Cautioners, Invented or Evidence (always connected those songs for some reason), and A Sunday. Also HM to the demo of Drugs or Me which is total magic but not a studio song so I don't count it
