What's your favorite song by the group X ?

great song ruined by terrible production and those damn synths

 

Today it's Riding With Mary. Tomorrow it could be The Hungry Wolf or Motel Room in My Bed.

 

I must not think bad thoughts. It is my current mantra.

 

"When Our Love Passed Out on the Couch"

 

The New World is a brilliant song from their brilliant fourth album.

 

Probably "Because I Do."

 

Those first four albums are flawless,all killer,no filler.Can't pick just one song.

 

"Poor Little Girl"

 

+1!

 

4th Of July

 

See How We Are gets to me every time I hear it.

 

Impossible for me to answer; too many vying for that top spot.

 

I definitely got a kick out of Pearls Before Swine today (12/2):

Many good options, but gotta go with We're Desperate. I believe them. And monster drumming on there too.

 

"Adult books / I don't understand Jackie Susann"

 

True of all their records. DJ Bonebrake (and it delights me no end that unlike everyone else in the band, that really was his real name!) is an absolutely ****-hot drummer.

 

One of my favorite bands, hard to choose only one... "Under The Big Black Sun" because it deals with the tragic death of Cervenka's sister, a tribute and a great performance by the entire band in communion with Cervenka's grief.

 

Do The Knitters count?

 

I Must Not Think Bad Thoughts

 

Yes, but I'm not the OP.

 

"Drunk In My Past"

 

7/4, followed by See How We Are

 

My favorite X song is the whole Los Angeles album...

Johnny Hit and Run Pauline seems to be the obvious choice for best song. ? But also Sex and Dying in High Society and The World's a Mess. And the song Los Angeles. And...

On a related note I saw them last year opening for Blondie and kind of wish I hadn't... LOVE their records but they didn't really hold up well live all these years later...

 

I was wondering if anybody here has read the book by John Doe?

 

The Once Over Twice (wow, nobody else?)
In This House..
