    Love Pendulum, probably my favorite song on LB but, for me, I Am Mine & Thumbing My Way are better songs.


    2 songs that sprung to my mind reading the OP.

    Which song is better and rate the songs threads are starting to make my head hurt. I'm starting a " "Who has an opinion?" Thread.
    Happy up here in my tree

    Not sure about the title. I think they wrote some amazing songs since Binaural. But Pendulum is def. one of my favourites.

    it is hard to compare songs from different albums and put one song over another. saying that, pendulum reminds me so much of no code, which is my favorite album, that i put it way way way up there.

    It has some psychedelic quality too. And even though the lyrics seem simplistic, they are very poetic and impressionistic. I like it.

    And the pendulum swings to and fro...

    Wow. People lovin some pendulum! Respect. Can't believe it's being labeled as the best pj song by some, in a decade, however. It's a cool jam no doubt, but c'mon people, the best in a decade??, lol.

    This kind of happens quick with a song for some people every time a new album comes out :P

    That said, my cd just arrived today from 10c and I am just listening to the album for the first time as I type this. I am on Sirens now, so it's coming up soon ;)

    I am not sure if its their best song in a decade. It *is* a good song though. I guess that this all indicates that some fans wants them to go on a more experimental direction. I feel like that. I like the song LB. But I rather have two Pendulums than 2 LB'lts. LB sounds to me too much like Amongs the Waves - an arena type of rocker.

    I hear ya, I enjoyed listening to it both nights in Philly. And for the record, I ain't knocking it at all, it's a bad lil number and I too like the experimentation. Will never have anything bad to say about a new song, except, in a perfect world, would rather only hear it open once on back to back nights. That's just me though...

    I like it, I listened to the album straight through once and then played that one again (for the record I've heard Getaway, Sirens and MYM many times before today but none of the others, so I guess you'd say Pendulum is my favourite of the 'new to me' songs).
