    Hmm... now we should do some stats as to rankings based on amount of times listened to the album & see how they change... :crazy: (Rankings for people with 5 or less listens, 6-15 listens, 16-30, 31+)

    I keep reading that Johnny Guitar is so good after you've listened to the album a lot. Apparently I need to listen to it a lot more!

    Never thought I'd like Force o' nature as much as I do, compared to my first listens.
    Unthought known was my favourite last time I did this.
    Just breathe dropped a lot from the first listens. I dont like the production on it. Too loud I think.
    Supersonic stays the same, although I accept it more now.

    I think it is safe to say that Johnny Guitar is Backspacer's version of Parachutes ~ the love-it-or-hate-it song...

    1. Unthought Known - one of the best PJ songs I've ever been blessed with hearing
    2. Got Some - simplistic lyrics, but this song gets me effing pumped every time I hear it
    3. Supersonic - another that gets my blood pumping
    4. Just Breathe - beauteous!
    5. Amongst the Waves - I always get an Unthought Known vibe from this one, although I like the lyrics less
    6. The End - The initial spine-tingling punch at the end of the song has faded, but I still like how it sounds
    7. Johnny Guitar - This one goes up and down... some of the lyrics/singing make me cringe a little, but some I really enjoy...
    8. Gonna See My Friend - Good opener, but also one I find difficult remembering how it goes

    Three way tie at the bottom

    9. Speed of Sound - Just sounds so corny and overdone... and those "lasers" make me gag
    9. Force of Nature - Not a bad song, just the most forgetable track on the disc
    9. The Fixer - Never got into the track that much, tho I can live... but this isn't a bootleg
