Because they're not perfect...
Glorified G from Vs. is definitely one of them... if not the worst. I just don't like that whole 'glorified version of a pellet gun' chorus thing in the background, it drives me nuts. Your results may vary, but I'm sure there's some songs you don't like.

    I think Mike's intro licks and Stone's rhythm guitar are more than enough to make Glorified G not among the worst.

    Stupid mop, I'm open, Bee girl, Sweet Lew, Mankind, Education, U. Don't gimme no lip I'd say these are the ones I really don't like much.

    Now when you think about it. Of all the albums, all the B-sides, all the Soundtracks, etc., probably well over 100 songs, if I can only come up with those 8 songs, that is a statement as to how great PJ is for me.
    Up here so high I start to shake, Up here so high the sky I scrape, I've no fear but for falling down, So look out below I am falling now, Falling down,...not staying down, Could’ve held me up, rather tear me down, Drown in the river

    Olympic Platinum. Hands down. I still enjoy it though for the whole "synchronized swimming" and "I'll be like that girl, who trained all her life..." lines.

    yeah, this is really the only one I skip. I saw them play it live at my first show and it still didn't grow on me.

    nothing as it seems

    On a side note, There are a bunch of songs on the riot act album that i don't like. Just can't think of them because I haven't listened to the album in a long time.

    the only thing I can agree with here is Evacuation, everything else mentioned I like too much.
    I'm not fond of Betterman.
