This is meaningless in the big scheme of things, but I really hate that cover. My goodness, it's so stupid.

Otherwise, it's fantastic, "Season Cycle" is fucking beautiful

Dear God really doesn't fit on that album, musically or thematically.
>>127335670
The cover with the hairy pussy is better.

>>127335771
>Dear God really doesn't fit on that album, musically or thematically.
With a subject as religion you would have expected Andy to be more inspired with the arrangements

>>127335771
>The cover with the hairy pussy is better.
Yes. We all know why the band used the bullshit other cover. But it still is bad.

Partridge going "I thought I hadn't written a strong enough take on religion. I thought I'd kind of failed." is some serious honesty.

>>127335771
>Dear God really doesn't fit on that album, musically or thematically.
It's not on the album and I don't care what anyone says. It was a single that became a retroactive bonus track, nothing more. No one should include it in such rankings.

Very sad. I remember them coming back from the dead over a decade ago

>>127335670
I thought the cover was a guy blowing his own wiener because I only saw low res jpgs of it for many years

>>127336140
I think the reunion not being very good killed some of the magic

>>127336208
Probably. Its really gay when an album means a lot to a ton of people and the band who made it half asses and acts like it was some angsty teenage garbage

Seventeen Seconds, omg the first three are so powerful that it is difficult to rank them

>Play for Today
>At Night
>A Forest
>Three
>In Your House
>Seventeen Seconds
>A Reflection
>M
>Secrets

>>127336190
Understandable, to be really honest.

>>127343810
lovely rita is seriously great paul song

>>127336910
You got the first 3 right for sure but At Night above A Forest? Bold. Seventeen Seconds isn't my favorite personally but Play For Today and A Forest are undeniable 10s. Also, no Final Sound? Even in its unfinished state it's pretty ominous.

>At Night above A Forest?
because is more goth, A Forest is friendly

>no Final Sound?
fuck! you're right, I'd put it above In Your House
