Relying on memory alone, I can think of "Rush," which is good, and "Innocent Child," which is not. I literally can't think of another song on that album.Heston wrote: ↑21 May 2019, 12:11pmHmmm.

Re: BAD SURVIVAL POLL - TIGHTEN UP VOL 2
I’m gonna split the difference here. I think it’s a very unified album that has a lot of reinvigorated energy, while also stumbling towards the end.Heston wrote: ↑21 May 2019, 12:11pmHmmm.

Then again, I’m firmly in the “TIBAD is the only BAD album I remember every single song from when I’m not listening” camp.

(And while the execution sucks, I have a soft spot in my heart for Innocent Child because it reminds me of a specific time and person.)

All I can remember of it is the SISOSIG sample. Of course, it'd all come back to me if I played it, but it otherwise doesn't stick out.Kory wrote: ↑21 May 2019, 12:39pmWhat about the titular trackDr. Medulla wrote: ↑21 May 2019, 12:14pmRelying on memory alone, I can think of "Rush," which is good, and "Innocent Child," which is not.

The title track is great. Really nice album.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

I love the title track despite the fact it has a Rappin’ Granny level breakdown.
