Default Waiting vs. Soot and Stars

They are both beautiful heart-wrenching songs. And they both would fit really well on Adore. Which one is better?

Well, Soot and Stars is a great song, but honestly: die and stop posting.

I get the feeling that most people are going to say Soot and Stars.

If there was any justice in this world, they'd all say die and stop posting.

Waiting..I like it's mix.

Soot and Stars isn't bad, either, but not as good as Waiting.

Waiting definitely.

I like Soot and Stars but it's too long and a little repetitive.

Second half of Waiting in particular is fantastic.

Why did billy fuck up with adore so bad? Had he stuck with jimmy and went with the electro goth genre man his career would have lasted longer and the history of sp would have turned out way different.
Eye, The End is The Beginning is The End are just epic hits to me and songs like Blissed and Gone, Satellites, Valentine are also awesome.

I would call Adore anything but a fuck up. Machina was with Jimmy back, and that was an inferior record in my opinion.

But hey, this has been discussed to death and there's a topic already open about this so I'll shut the fuck up.

Soot & Stars is a bit boring, the rocking version performed with the Mickey Byrne Band is actually cooler. Waiting is nice.

On the other hand, your threads sound artificial

According to the Bristol Stool conventions, a Type III or IV are most desirable feces, so I would go for Soot and Stars.

Yeah, but I think that's kind of the point with Soot, it's hypnotic and a little mesmerizing because of that, I think it would lose the effect if it was more dynamic.

I do love Waiting though. It's one of the few songs I've put on repeat before on my iTunes, and for that reason it's in my top 25 most played
