Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5
Some real robot-bait here. Only one or two tracks would be tough to justify as not only top 5 worthy, but as shortlisted tracks for a best-recorded-music-of-all-time, so it'll be interesting to see how adventurous folks are with their lists.
1. God Only Knows
2. I Just Wasn't Made For These Times
3. I Know There's An Answer
4. Caroline, No
5. Don't Talk (Put Your Head On My Shoulder)
A pedant may point out that Hang On To Your Ego wasn't actually on the original album, Marky

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!

A pedant might counterpoint and say nowhere in my post does it mention anything about "the original album". I gave up caring a long time ago.Flex wrote: ↑07 Jan 2021, 2:14pmSome real robot-bait here.

Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5

2) I Just Wasn't Made For These Times
3) Wouldn't It Be Nice
4) Caroline, No
5) You Still Believe in Me

Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5
Well, yeah. I know it probably makes me unhip, but I actually prefer I Know There's An Answer. Love that chorus. I don't think Ego would get quite as much attention if it weren't for the drug and anti-mike aura that surrounds it (which does make it very, very cool).WestwayKid wrote: ↑07 Jan 2021, 2:33pmOr that I Know There's An Answer and Hang On To Your Ego are essentially the same song

Re: Heston and Marky's Friday Top 5
I'm a bit different in that i have come to liking them a lot since i started listening to them 9-10 years ago, but i still never got into pet sounds. Maybe i was expecting too much having heard so much about it, just dunno really. Same as astral weeks.
