    Going to assume these low Halloween rankings are strictly for the botched Get Hurt version, and not the immaculate 45RPM Club version.

    Yeah there was a video of a live performance that I used to watch all the time and was really disappointed with the recorded version
     
  4. imthegrimace

    I, mod Josh, have banned Grimace Supporter

    It’s not very good

    This one? I go back to it a lot.



    I was referring to this, which I think is technically a demo? It just sounds infinitely more lively than the version on Get Hurt.

  8. Stray Paper is not remotely bad enough to be basically the only consensus bottom five track. That's so wild to me.

    I had way too hard of a time with this once I hit like 60% and stopped.

    Man, I’m seeing mama’s boys last on a few rankings and I absolutely love that song.

    it’s not bad but I always thought it was so blah, lazy. It’s not a bad song but it IS “bad Gaslight”. To me.

    I agree with so much of your list but cannot fathom She Loves you at 77. Top 15 for me. Mind blown

    Is there a reason nobody is including Teenage Rebellion? Is that song a cover and I don’t know it??

    I’ll try this tomorrow.
     
  14. it's lesser gaslight for sure but there's at least five worse songs on Get Hurt alone

    yeah not for me. I have Vicious and Stray Paper both bottom 5 overall

    I knocked it down because I've oy listened a couple of times. Will revisit and give it more of a chance.

    I like that you can do a ranking of songs that feature that guitar line from She Loves You lol

    “Stray Paper” is one of the only Gaslight songs that I would plainly say just sucks. Easy bottom five.

    Alright, someone give me the link to rank every gaslight song. I'm ready to do this.
