edited January 2011 in The Porch
I don't know about anyone else, but i have always really enjoyed the last song that PJ puts on their albums...they're always a slower tempo and seem more meaningful to me...its kind of a strange thing to rank...but what the hell...here's my order...feel free to rank your own, im curious to see the differences

1.Release (this is really a toss-up, indifference is great--but im going with the album that sucked me in for life...still get chills listening to this song sometimes)
2. Indifference (so good lyrically...again...toss-up)
3. The End
4. Immortality (i know its not technically the last song....but whatever)
5. All Those Yesterdays
6. Parting Ways
7. All Or None
8. Around the Bend
9. Inside Job

    Not much Love for Around the Bend...that's disappointing! Here's my list:

    Immortality (Top 5 all time PJ for me)
    Around The Bend
    Indifference
    All Those Yesterdays
    Inside Job
    Release ( so good as a show opener but not the best album closer)

    Tough calls. Really, the only ones I can say for sure are immortality and Around the Bend. The former is one of my top 2 PJ songs, the latter one of my least favorite in the catalogue. Otherwise, the order can shift with my mood.

    It's nearly impossible ranking PJ songs at the best of times but album closers are particularly special.

    1. Release (any show which starts with this is a classic)
    2. The End (wasn't keen on it really and then it knocked me for six in Berlin)
    3. Immortality (one of PJ's most classy atmospheric songs)
    4. All Those Yesterdays (the most under played live song IMO)
    5. Around The Bend (my mum's favourite PJ song and a great little lullaby)
    6. All Or None (Mike Mc'Fuckin'Cready)
    7. Indifference (has that stamp of class that you get with Brendan O Brien steering the ship)
    8. Parting Ways (another sadly ignored song from a sadly ignored album)
    9. Inside Job (I love this song and it's atmospheric intro, a masterpiece!)
    Like a book among the many on a shelf...
