Just Another Nervous Wreck The solo in the end of Waiting So Long is just marvelous. Unfortunately obscured by the general output of the rest of the album.

1. Just A Normal Day
2. Child of Vision 3. Take The Long Way Home 4. Try Again 5. School 6. Bloody Well Right 7. Fool's Overture 8. Waiting So Long 9. Brother Where You Bound 10. No Inbetween (10 of my favorites by them... but this was a tough one, as I have difficulty separating any tracks out of Crime of the Century. The entire album is, in my opinion, "perfect" - and realistically my top 8 Supertramp songs would be the 8 tracks of Crime of the Century... 9 would be Just a Normal Day, and 10 would be Waiting So Long.)

2: Brother Where You Bound 3: Asylum 4: School 5: Child of Vision 6: Rudy 7: Bloody Well Right 8: Gone Hollywood 9: Goodbye Stranger 10: Crime of the Century Some of the order here is a little arbitrary but this is what I came up with in like 5 or so minutes.

I know not everyone ordered their lists, but here are the polling results so far:
Most Mentioned: 1. School 2. Fool's Overture (tie) School 4. Rudy 5. Even in the Quietest Moments 6. Asylum (tie) The Logical Song 8. Child of Vision 9. Gone Hollywood (tie) Hide In Your Shell (tie) Goodbye Stranger Points: 1. Fool's Overture (77 pts.) 2. School (68) 3. Crime of the Century (65) 4. Rudy (53) 5. Hide in Your Shell (48) 6. Asylum (46) 7. The Logical Song (37) 8. Child of Vision (35) 9. Even in the Quietest Moments (34) 10. Gone Hollywood (31) I'll check in again in a few weeks to see if anyone else has chosen to add their list. Thanks! Everybody watch one of the YouTube video of Roger Hodgson playing "Fool's Overture" live with a full orchestra. Quite emotional: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6aWDxuhD0FI&ab_channel=BDFilms4U |

Me before reading the comments in this thread: "I can contribute, I like Supertramp. I know plenty of their songs."
Me after reading the comments: "I know nothing about Supertramp." Here's my contribution: 1. Breakfast in America 2. Give a little bit 3. Logical Song 4. Dreamer 5. Goodbye Stranger 6. Take the long way home Bloody marvelous. Nearly made it to 7... |

Pretty much anything on Breakfast In America really. Not a bad song in sight. Crime of The Century is also great. (The Eye Of The Storm by Roger Hodgson would easily be my 3rd favourite 'Supertramp' album.)
1. Child Of Vision 2. Crime Of The Century 3. Logical Song 4. Take The Long Way Home 5. Goodbye Stranger 6. Gone Hollywood 7. Dreamer 8. Hide In Your Shell 9. School 10. Fool's Overture

Just take my word for it that we're not allowed to mention S****thorpe. I mentioned it in one of my album reviews once and the offending letters were asterisked out, seriously.

Yes, it's a funny song as a novelty record, but unfortunately, it's usually novelty songs that are the most irritating of all. Do you remember the godawful "Birdy Song" by The Tweets?  I thought we may not be allowed to say "bl**dy" in the forums, seeing as we're not allowed to mention the Lincolnshire town of S****thorpe.

What's wrong with spelling "bloody"? Is it offensive? Such a fun song, I don't know how it can irritate anyone.

I don't know about a Supertramp Top 10, but I know that "Bl**dy Well Right" is one of the most irritating songs I've ever heard, from anyone.
I like the Supertramp song that begins, "Take a look at my girlfriend, she's the only one I've got" or something like that, which I believe is on the Breakfast in America album. I couldn't possibly come up with a Top 10 list though, not unless I choose all of the songs from Breakfast in America, which happens to be the only Supertramp album I've listened to, apart from their Greatest Hits album. I will listen to all of Supertramp's albums eventually though.

^Crisis was my gateway album to the Tramp and always my "private crush"--and I was sorely disappointed when they played absolutely zero songs from it on their Breakfast in America tour.
And "Try Again" almost made my list. I like those first two albums a lot! But, I have to admit, Crime is just a pure masterpiece--seemless start to finish--and what a start, what a finish!
