    Johnny Guitar is probably the worst PJ song ever but i can't think of two others..
    probably something off Backspacer..

    I guess I could rephrase it to "Least Favorite" but really, I can't stand those songs.

    Backspacer IS their weakest album to date....in my opinion...

    Last Kiss is the song I love to hate, not theirs..

    last kiss/a few from backspacer could contend for my worst 3

    I will wait years for a better album than Backspacer...has some great songs and some weak songs for sure...opinion

    I like Leatherman. Johnny Guitar is really bad.... But, overall, I would say my least favorite is Last Kiss.

    I must say, I'm a little surprised by all the dislike for "Johnny Guitar." I respect all the opinions - I'm just surprised is all.

    I would have to say "Speed of Sound" is one of my least favorites, which might well qualify as one of their worst.

    I really like leatherman.
    Know its not the popular choice but the one song I never really 'got' is red mosquito
    I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!

    i must be one of the few who actually likes johnny guitar (and backspacer)

    if i had to pick a least favorite song it'd be betterman, only because it got played to DEATH on radio over here

    But it's such a nice segue from "Parting Ways" to "Breakerfall."

    Ah well, to each his own.

    Never liked Sweet Lew studio or live.
    Not a fan of Amongst The Waves live but it's ok on record.
    Just A Girl has never done much for me.
    Unemployable grates occasionally.

    There are songs I have struggled to accept in the past but like or love now:
    God's Dice, Evacuation, Sleight Of Hand, Mankind, Green Disease, Pilate, Comatose, Parachutes, Speed Of Sound, Gonna See My Friend, Supersonic, Hitchhiker, Olé.

    I love Johnny Guitar, it for me sums up the enthusiastic attitude the band seem to currently be relishing. I loved hearing it in Berlin last summer.


    PLEASE PLAY SCOTLAND 2012.....

    All Night
    Gods' Dice
    Evacuation
    ...and Down definitely fits the category for me. there is just no groove for me in these songs. .. plus i found Of The Earth to be very repetitive lately. .. other songs that do not do much for me are Mankind or Sweet Lew.. .

    the end

    these three can drop off the face of the earth.
    Johnny guitar is the best song on backspacer besides force of nature.

    I also happen to like HEY FOXYMOPHANDLEMOMMATHATSME. as a first introduction in the studios with Jack Irons, it broke the mold for what was to come next; MERKENBALL/MIRRORBALL/NO CODE.
