Posted: February 11 2006 at 18:14 |
For me Supper's Ready is the second, Can-Utility and the Coastliners is N° 1.

maybe we should do this poll again with Supper's Ready added then

Not at all. I've never been too impressed by Supper's Ready, and would rate Get 'Em Out higer in quality than the epic track.

It's a classic!!! Watcher of the Skies gets my vote

I like Watcher of the Skies the least, but they are all so good I'm not saying I hate Watcher... I just like them all slightly more.

I honestly don't really count Horizons as a song on its own, to me it is the intro to Supper's Ready. If all i want to do is listen to Supper's Ready, i start listening with Horizons and let it play thru to Supper's Ready. Simply amazing!

me too, I hardly just listen to Horizons or just to Supper's Ready, on my comp I have no gap between the songs so it blends them like one. It just makes sense to me like that, Supper's Ready starts off too quick it needs Horizons

Chalk up another vote in this Can-Utility love fest

I'd always overlooked Can Utility until recently but it's a little gem. In fact it's the BEST track on this outstanding album.

Get 'Em Out by Friday is my favorite second to "Supper's Ready." Every song
on Foxtrot is outstanding though so it is hard to choose.

And endless Compromises

I love them all, and you're right Supper's Ready is my favorite... so after that my favorites would be:
- Can-Utility And The Coastliners
- Watcher of the Skies
- Get Em Out By Friday
- Time Table
I honestly don't really count Horizons as a song on its own, to me it is the intro to Supper's Ready. If all i want to do is listen to Supper's Ready, i start listening with Horizons and let it play thru to Supper's Ready. Simply amazing!

Strangers passing in the street by chance two separate glances meet and I am you and what I see is me. And do I take you by the hand and lead you through the land and help me understand the best I can

I also like Can-Utility better than Supper's Ready. It actually makes sense from beginning to end.
