All Time Top Ten

Post by hallowedbemyname » Thu Jun 21, 2012 3:30 pm

After spending a few days thinking about whether or not I should start a thread about the podcast that I was recently invited to pick my top ten Alice songs on, I woke up today thinking that I would...and then I checked my e-mail and it was in the newsletter! If anyone listens I'd love to hear what you think, and I'd also be curious to see what your top ten would be, so please share!

For reference, I'm Amy, and I'd like to apologize for the amount of times I ended up calling things "fun". I was a little nervous and I didn't even realize I was doing that :laugh:

I dont think i could pick an all time top ten. It changes depending on what mood im in. The only constant i have is halo of flies at number one.

Hmmmmmm...

It's very hard to come up with a top 10 BUT, according to my iPhone, my most regularly played Alice tracks are:

Wind Up Toy
Under the Bed
Ballad of Dwight Fry
I Am Made of You
Freedom
Catch Me If You Can
Cold Machines
Steven
Not That Kind of Love
It Rained All Night

Which is odd as it would be criminal not to include some of the older songs. I therefore would like special dispensation to add School's Out, Dead Babies, Department of Youth and No More Mr Nice Guy.

That's my Top 14 right there :)

That's a polite request not an order

You certainly picked an eclectic bunch of songs and sounded much smarter with regards to the Coop than the guy picking the other top ten. I particularly liked your story of how you listened to the new album.

As for the top ten, I'm delighted you picked I Had Better Be Good as I've always thought that was a brilliant, funny song despite being on one of his most unpopular albums.

If I did a top ten it would be likely to change on a regular basis but I reckon the top three would almost always consist of Under My Wheels, No More Mr Nice Guy and Luney Tune.

Yeah, I'd Better Be Good doesn't get enough attention in my opinion. Thanks for listening, I appreciate it!

Some good choices there-for the band my top ten is:
"Caught in a Dream"-all time favorite
"Halo of Flies"
"Unfinished Suite"
"Never Been Sold Before"
"Luney Tune"
"Laughing at Me"
"Public Animal #9"
"Be My Lover"
"Is It My Body"
"Changing Arranging"
For Alice himself, it would be difficult and I would probably have to go by decade-where to start?
