    Tremor Christ is meh.

    That's actually my favorite PJ song of all time lol
    Certainly the best song on Vitalogy! But pay no attention to PJFan - knowing him, he's just saying that to bug people, lol. ;)
    Actually it's true. Tremor Christ is meh for me. I have listened to all songs on tape equally because when I first got it I listened to the full album over and over again for months (I calculate about a billion times) and TC never really stuck but I listened to it anyway.
    Aye Dav however is a neat little snippet that I don't skip when it comes on after all these years.
    Tremor Christ is pretty damn boring. That and satans bed are my two least favorite "songs" off vitalogy.
    Are you including Bugs? It's always a grey area with that one.
    Working backwards, for me it'd be:
    10. Satan's Bed
    9. Tremor Christ (still a good tune).
    ....
    2. Corduroy
    1. Immortality

    Definitely not including bugs.

    Hey! Very cool you think so too about TC on that record. Once again we have very similar taste.

    And yeah, I was laughing during Bugs at Wrigley too, so you weren't alone ;) I've always thought it was a cool song and awesome to see him having fun bringing it to life. Same in Philly '09.

    By the way, hi!

    Bugs

    Tremor Christ? Seriously?

    TC, Not For You, and Corduroy are the three best songs of this album for me. Nothingman, Better Man, Last Exit, and Immortality are all special tunes as well (just a notch below the aforementioned).

    Crazy talk. Tremors is one of Ed's best vocals.

    On the off chance the band reads this forum thread we will never hear the current weakest links from Vitalogy live.

    Note - we are eliminating 4 songs in the 1st round.

    Will another four songs go in round 2?

    Good question.
    OP what is your line of thinking from here on in?
    You have your cut off time but what is the cut for songs going forward?

    So one of you would rather listen to Bugs, Pry to, Foxy Mop Handle, and Aye Davanita, rather than Tremor Christ? okay....lol.

    I can appreciate that four rounds per album is enough so, assuming no ties, my guess is four songs go during the first two rounds, three in the third round, leaving three songs left to duke it out in the final round.

    If tremor Christ (one if eds best vocals and in general bad ass-est songs) goes out in the first round bc we are voting out 4 songs in this round and 1 FREAKING PERSON voted for it.... seriously this is just not right. A song should not be eliminated bc of 1 vote. Why 4 songs this round? Clearly we know the 3 that will go. Wouldn't it be more fair to pit the ACTUAL SONGS after those 3 are out against each other????

    The four songs in the "lead" have no business making it past round 1 - and it looks like they won't. I'm looking forward to seeing how round 2 (and beyond) plays out.
