Have the people who've heard this given a full ranking of the songs yet? Haven't seen any. Maybe that's something for the Supporter thread?
Its an acoustic-ish version of Dizzy, check itunes. And I totally agree about Shame and Be Sensible as solid b-sides.
im not sure how id rank the songs, other than You Are Free and Pretty Grids being my favorite. youre in for a treat
to be honest i think im going to be happy if theres at least a song or two that i like as much as i like sure & certain
It Matters Pol Roger You with Me Sure and Certain Through Integrity Blues The End is Beautiful You Are Free Pass the Baby Get Right Pretty Grids #rankingthings
how would it matters and pol roger rank amongst the rest of their discog for you? both top 10 JEW songs?
That's so hard to say, ha. I think I'll need more time on this to rank the individual songs against my favorites from their other records, because those are also some of my favorite songs of all time. "Pol Roger" might be my third favorite of their closers, though, and I think both of these are among the strongest things Jim has written, lyrically.
@CoffeeEyes17 and I started this awhile back but I don't think we finished. I was having trouble slotting the Static Prevails songs in there.
gotcha just curious, i'll be happy with any JEW record with a song or two that infiltrates my top 10 and so far every JEW record since CTL has had at least one. hell, you with me is already one of my favorite of their openers (behind heart is hard to find, my fav jew song) and i havent even heard the rest of the record, haha
You Are Free Pretty Grids Pol Rodger Pass The Baby Through Sure and Certain Integrity Blues The End Is Beautiful It Matters You With Me Get Right
i had NO idea Heart Is Hard To Find was your favorite JEW song I've learned a lot about you this week
Shit, now I actually really want to haha I think that you'll really like this album. I'm gonna guess maybe Pass the Baby will be your favorite? I'm pretty sure I guessed Ken's right so I wanna see, haha
Through You are free End is beautiful Pol Rodger Pretty grids Pass the baby Sure and certain Integrity blues Get right It matters You w me
I feel like you'll like this one a lot. "You with Me" and "Sure and Certain" are pretty good mission statements for the overall sound and vibe (though it's definitely not a one-note collection of songs). I like how ours are almost opposites. Haha
Pol Rodger has a lot of my favorite lyrics of Jim's and the chorus is great but I could see people being disappointed in it a bit after how much we've built it up Now that I think about it tho Jordan was right when he said it's like Polaris pt 2
