Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5
It's been a while, putting the album on now.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

So Sad About us
A Quick One, While He's Away
See My Way
Happy Jack
Run Run Run
Great to revisit this album. I forgot how much I loved So Sad About Us, and the title track is just something else.

Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5
"So Sad" is great. But I had to go for "Happy Jack" as my number one. Because you can't prevent Jack from feeling happy.

I gotta say, "Birthday" is such an odd choice for a favourite Beatles song. Even Tom wouldn't go there.Silent Majority wrote: ↑15 Jan 2021, 7:41pmdaredevil's list is The Very Most Problematic of the Beatles.

It reads like pulling song names out of a hat. For a list so unusual, there's nothing there that seems connective.Silent Majority wrote: ↑15 Jan 2021, 7:41pmdaredevil's list is The Very Most Problematic of the Beatles.

I was liking a lot of their lesser known songs at the time of the poll. Birthday rocks imho.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑15 Jan 2021, 8:52pmIt reads like pulling song names out of a hat.

Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5
I don't really have very formed opinions about World Service, but I never did last week's so:
1. Boris the Spider (fucking love this song)
2. A Quick One While He's Away
3. Happy Jack
4. So Sad About Us
5. Run Run Run
A sneaky fave album. Kind of gets overlooked but I really like how the Who play on this record.

Good album, think I'll stick it on later and make my choices.

Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5
Not as good as One Eyed Jacks but a few killer cuts...
All My Love (Ask Nothing)
Come Back
Somewhere In the East
Mickey
Once In Her Lifetime
Special mention to "Last Card" which should have made the album but ended up as a b-side.
