Official releases Hall of Shame:
Bye June Apathy's Last Kiss Blank Tonite Reprise Because You Are The covers Pastichio Medley (if you wanna count it as a song) Not as long a list as I'd anticipated. Every other song I think is at least OK - i.e. I don't want to skip it if it comes on. Even songs that can grate a little - like Imploding Voice, HMM, Daphne Descends, are good songs but just over-extended. Some odd choices on here. What kind of black-hearted villain, nay! scoundrel can find no love for Beautiful, Soot and Stars, Annie-dog, Appels + Oranjes, Vanity, Home, AoI, Methuselah, Shame, Pug, Tale of Dusty + Pistol Pete, To Forgive, This Time, White Spyder, Untitled, Love, Cherry? Have you no sense of decency sir at long last? Last edited by RenewRevive : 10-20-2018 at 06:25 AM. |

Can’t believe Apathy’s Last Kiss has made the list multiple times. Great song, tbh it could’ve fit on SD in place of Spaceboy just fine.

I do find You’re All I’ve got Tonight a tad disappointing. It’s okay but it’s so minimalist it just bugs me. Always thought Billy could have done something more interesting with that one. I also don’t care for their cover of Dancing in the Moonlight. The original is one of my favorite songs, and the SP version just sounds all dreary and depressing. |

Some of these songs are ones where I dislike on the albums but love the live version of them but here's mine:
Real Love - hate it with a passion, don't give a fuck what anyone else says Rhinoceros - not a bad song, just not one I'm in the mood to listen to very often Take Me Down - not one of James' best Beautiful - one I love live but there's something about the album version... Annie Dog - hate the croaky singing, ruins a good song. Shame - find it tedious Heavy Metal Machine - don't really need to explain this one... The Imploding Voice - ruined a good live song GATGC - I honestly don't think I've ever made it through this song Crying Tree Of Mercury - meh If There Is A God - there was an good version of this done as a demo but the Machina II versions are cack. For a long long time I hated both The Last Song and We Only Come Out At Night but slowly came around to enjoying both of them. Real Love however is still shite. |

Also, Cupid is fine but I 100% stan for the shoegaze version they played on the '08 tour. I would die for a studio version of that. I would pay real money for it.
I will go to bat for the covers of Dreaming and Stay, though |

Oh sweet, another thread for everyone to remind everyone else they don't like those 2 songs from Machina as well as some random ass choices like "Cherry" to shit upon!
What da fuck? |

I mentioned this in another thread recently, but it's funny how if you rewind about 16 years, Machina was the worst album and a lot of people really vocally despised it. But context changes things haha

Adore was the first album that I couldn't listen to all the way through without a couple of questionable moments, there was more with Machina. Beforehand their album output had been pretty much flawless. With Adore it was essentially a few songs could've been trimmed by like 30-45s. Machina had that and also some instances where they made some bad choices on individual songs. However, as you allude to, compared to everything post-2000 SP v1.0 had an amazing hit rate. |

IMO Rhicoceros is one of peak early SP songs. Dreamy, longing, wistful like a cloudy Tuesday in November. Then, boom, it kicks you right in the nuts.
I like Glass and the Ghost Children as a 4-minute song before the Billy therapy session kicks in. |

The first part of GatGC is a Machina high-point, for me. The second part is just OK. The spoken section I have no idea why it's even in there tbh.

1979-I've always hated it. Never connected to it lyrically or emotionally..the video makes it tolerable on occasion.
Innosense Let Me Give The World to You 1979 - I really fucking hate it |
