I feel like I’m not in on the joke. The best song on Backspacer isn’t better than the worst song on Ten. What’s next? Gonna See My Friend vs Rearviewmirror? Got Some vs Lukin? The best song on Backspacer is Speed of Sound. I will say that any song on Backspacer is better than Mankind. But the sound of explosive diarrhea splattering the bowl is better than the sound of Mankind so the standard isn't that high. I’m not smart enough to get the joke that is this thread.

Or at the Benny show. Wow.
Oh yeah... the crowd singing the last refrain... dare we dream?
Play the guitar, play it again, my Johnny Maybe you're cold but you're so warm inside I was always a fool for my Johnny For the one they call Johnny Guitar Play it again, Johnny Guitar
What if you go, what if you stay, I love you But if you're cruel, you can be kind, I know There was never a man like my Johnny Like the one they call Johnny Guitar

Johnny Guitar Watson staring at me Riding on 3 wheels, a woman on his knee With a leg under the red dress I wish I could see Further North the warmth of lovin' lingering Now Johnny he be having lots of women Oh the reason he'd be smiling known to him
On the left the girl in red so innocent Never sheds her clothes even when she goes to bed Yeah the type of girl responsible for original sin Can't help but wonder where and who she is Oh and the memory's always getting clearer First thirty years and more I've loved her so But now I need to know why she's with him
And I sleep with the light on in case she comes And I sleep with the light on in case she,

They had to do that to bring the excitement level down a notch. If you start at ten there is no where to go but down.
Gonna see my friend is just a dumb song. Not a bad song, just a dumb song. Backspacer is just not that good of an album. Some good to great songs but I will never sit down and listen to it again in it’s entirety.

In all seriousness, I think Unthought and Amongst the Waves come off pretty well live. While im not thrilled when they start, I'm fine with hearing them. Nothing else from BS. From LB, I think the song LB is excellent live, especially the ending jam. They can table the rest of the record.

Yeah I think LB the song is quite good, actually. The rest of the album is just kind of meh. I liked it at first and still think it's better than Backspacer (except for Johnny Guitar, obviously) but it's a tough listen at this point.
Hard to believe a song as wonderful as Johnny Guitar came out of an album as subpar as Backspacer.

Backspacer is fine to me. It’s not Vs. but there is plenty to appreciate in there for me.

Johnny Guitar
Maybe you're cold but you're so warm inside
I was always a fool for my Johnny
For the one they call Johnny Guitar
Play it again, Johnny Guitar
But if you're cruel, you can be kind, I know
There was never a man like my Johnny
Like the one they call Johnny Guitar
Like the one they call Johnny Guitar
Play it again, Johnny Guitar
OR
Riding on 3 wheels, a woman on his knee
With a leg under the red dress I wish I could see
Further North the warmth of lovin' lingering
Now Johnny he be having lots of women
Oh the reason he'd be smiling known to him
Never sheds her clothes even when she goes to bed
Yeah the type of girl responsible for original sin
Can't help but wonder where and who she is
Oh and the memory's always getting clearer
First thirty years and more I've loved her so
But now I need to know why she's with him
And I sleep with the light on in case she,
She came to visit lost and lonely me
Oh she leaned over the bed and with…
