Your Five Favorite Anything

[Henry Spencer 0]

Inspired by the New Pornographers chat, the top five NP songs featuring Neko Case's lead vocals:

 

1. Mass Romantic

2. To Wild Homes

3. The Bleeding Heart Show

4. Letter From An Occupant

5.

 

Hmm. I can't really think of any outside of those four that I'm nuts for. I suppose I could slot Bones Of An Idol in there, even though it's not really that great.

I like 'These are the Fables'. Yeah...good song.

[Henry Spencer 0]

These Are The Fables is only okay.

 

Really, I just wanted to call attention to To Wild Homes.

[Giuseppe Zangara 0]

"The Bleeding Heart Show" isn't really a Neko lead.

[Henry Spencer 0]

Point, but her voice is the most prominent (to my ears, anyways).

 

Besides, without it, my already paltry list would be diminished further.

 

Anyways,

Top five as of late:

 

Echo & The Bunnymen - Nocturnal Me

The Replacements - Unsatisfied

Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow

13th Floor Elevators - Baby Blue

Morrissey - The Last Of The Famous International Playboys
