He's starting at the bottom -- and it's not good for Vitalogy! (And the Whale Song!?!?!?)

    he's already lost credibility in my eyes having the masterpiece that is Olympic Platinum so low.

    Personally, I like Gremmie out of Control and whale song, perfect additions to Lost Dogs. As the liner notes say on Gremmie, "Brendan O'Brien plays a mean surf guitar"


    But that's just me.

    Whale Song is weak; no matter how many times I try to get into it, I can't...and Vitalogy has always got a bad rap. I guess the masses can't handle awesomeness.

    i don't. the accordion plus those quirky lyrics make it brilliant to me.

    personally, since he is including recorded/released covers,
    LAST KISS should be at the very bottom of that list

    Sorry! I really have tried! I used to feel that I wasn't a true fan unless I liked all their songs, but now I believe the opposite.
