Re: ***Official Rank the AFTW Songs Thread***
My current list
1.) Broken Things 2.) If Only 3.) Snow Outside 4.) Belly Belly Nice 5.) The Riff 6.) Drunken Soldier 7.) Rooftop 8.) Belly Full 9.) Mercy 10.) Gaucho 11.) Sweet This album is so solid it is hard to put any song last. I just find myself everytime I listen wanting to go from listening to Mercy right to The Riff.

almost exactly what i think... drunken soldier snow outside (you could tie these two. i flip flop all the time already. the best 2 songs dmb has put out in a LONG time. amazing) Broken Things Rooftop Belly Belly Nice Riff (4-6 are pretty interchangeable) and i think these 6 are clearly better than the rest of the songs If Only (something about this song, i really like it. ED and SU are such bad albums, but several of the songs off ED, IIHIA/STDH types, if dmb were to re-write some of that garbage, fire ballard, and make it better, their way? If Only would be the song. It (and so right) would be the best songs on the disc. But for AFTW, it's 7th...mighty strong album to me) Gaucho- reminds me of so many really good songs that create a unique sound (minarets, last stop, type songs) the weak lyrics doesn't help, but don't kill it either. but the kids choir? such a downer moment. again, the song structure, musically, it's actually a very good song, but the overall strength of the album and a downer moment like choir. it's low) Mercy- it's not bad in any way shape or form. but nothing about it stands out, especially compared to the rest. Belly Full Sweet (both interchangeable again. I feel like the verse structure in most of the songs is quiet and an acoustic driven sound. didnt need almost 2 full songs of dave just dave. one would have been fine, but both? unnecessary. so you could actually either change one of these or just take one off the album and add a full band song for me. ) and again, even these bottom two, i am fine listening to them both. they aren't terrible by any means. just not what i would have wanted on the album.

i think for the bigger fans, the strength in the musicianship is absolutely outstanding. that will float to the top in the tunes that showcase that musicianship. now everyone has their emotional attachments to other things which is why it some tunes float higher or lower. but that's always the case. but i bet that before long you will see a strong consensus on certain songs

Re: ***Official Rank the AFTW Songs Thread***
My initial rankings have changed a bit. Hard to put an exact order/number on them though, I prefer lumping them into tiers
Tier 1 Snow Outside Drunken Soldier Tier 2 Rooftop Broken Things Belly Full Sweet Tier 3 Belly Belly Nice The Riff If Only Tier 4 Mercy Gaucho I struggle to put Gaucho even on this list because its gotten to the point where I don't even care to listen to it anymore. It's joined the list of songs like Spaceman that gets skipped over upon reaching that point in the album. I'm in the minority though in regards to Belly Full and Sweet, I really like their sound and they've only sounded better to me on repeat listens.

Re: ***Official Rank the AFTW Songs Thread***
I haven't posted in here yet because I knew it would change so much through my first 40 or so listens. There will probably still be changes, but for now (and I think the top 6 are pretty safe)

Re: ***Official Rank the AFTW Songs Thread***
I really have enjoyed every song on the album and have listened to every song multiple times which is the first time I have done that with a DMB album in a while. Here is my current ranking...
Snow Outside Drunken Soldier Rooftop The Riff If Only Belly Belly Nice Sweet Mercy Broken Things Gaucho Belly Full Everything after the top 3 are pretty even for me listening wise actually. I definitely listen to Snow, Soldier, and Rooftop slightly more though.

Re: ***Official Rank the AFTW Songs Thread***
Drunken Soldier
Snow Outside Broken Things The Riff Mercy Rooftop Sweet If Only Gaucho Belly Belly Nice Belly Full When Gaucho came out, aside from the singing kids, I thought it was awesome. I would never have thought I'd put the majority of the album above it eventually. I think that shows how solid the album is. Last edited by Utopia; 10-04-2012 at 08:44 AM. |

Re: ***Official Rank the AFTW Songs Thread***
Alright, I think I can definitively say this is it, probably won't change:
Broken Things Snow Outside The Riff Belly Belly Nice Rooftop Drunken Soldier Mercy Sweet Belly Full Gaucho If Only But really between the top 4, it's pretty much a wash, they are all fantastic songs.
