The answer to this thread is Crooked Rain.
I'm not even a Pavement fan but that will be the answer.
*slanted and enchanted
The answer was Crooked Rain last time we had this thread.
that's an album
not a song?
Oh, ok.
The thread starter didn't specify album or song, if I was a Pavement fan I would know by the title post. :)
The Hexx
Ta.
What's Crooked Rain?
Silence Kid!
Just an incredible song to open an album with, or maybe Best Friend's Arm, that one always brings a smile to my face.
best song?
range life
totally my favourite
Grounded
and Rattled By The Rush are my faves.
Wowee Zowee doesn't get nearly enough love imho.
Grounded
Totally
Yep
or maybe Zurich is Stained. Although Shady lane has the best lyrics of virtually any song ever written.
yes!^
GOLD SOUNDZ
is like the best song ever ever, but i like starlings of the slipstream too, and also here is lovely, and love is lies is ace, and also box elder is amazing. i could continue...
All of these are amazing
Actually they're all amazing, all of them.
Father to a Sister of Thought though. That's one of my top ones. Starling in the Slipstream too. Preston School of Industry (the song)? Oh, you can't just have one!
i know.
it's so hard to choose. i doubt i could even pick a top 10 without being upset/confused/getting a headache. i love no life singed her as well. and carrot rope. i choose them all!
I can't limit myself to ten
to do so would absolutely destroy my afternoon at work in attempting!
Cut yr hair
perfume v
shady lane
stereo
carrot rope
summer babe
range life
gold soundz
all massive tunes
Trigger Cut
Cut your hair was the first Pavement song I remember.........
back when I was about 14 and someone was playing it at school, so I'll always love that. In the early-mid 90s Surrey boarding schools were all indie as fuck.
Shady Lane is possibly my favourite though, it's just perfect really.
Until it does that rubbish outro
I really hate that bit, it stops me ever saying it. Shady Lane that is.
Cut Your Hair was my 'first' too, off Napster. Crikey.
I just started singing Embassy Row at the printer, people think I'm weird now.
thats ace that bit
you mean the chilled out instrumental? thats ace
cut your hair
carrot rope
range life
best friend's arm
stereo
grave architecture
one no one has said...
harness your hopes.
thats right even their b-sides kicked ass.
did anyone hear the live BBC session when they played that. cant remember if it was lamaq or peel, good no the less.
Range life
Here
^those are the best two. Also:

Grounded

Gold Soundz
Kris Kraft
as song by Bob
5. AT & T
4. Shady Lane
3. Gold Soundz
2. Filmore Jive
1. In the Mouth a Desert
Loretta's Scars
...was always my favourite - it's so lazy and just lollops along. But then I heard Gold Soundz today again, and it's great too... Life is fraught with difficult descisions like these.
Joe - www.anewbandaday.com
noone mentioned
elevate me later... love that song
but for me, its gold soundz.... just the definition of what music should sound like...maybe. probably not
but really good.
You never stipulated song or album
1: Grounded
2: Here
3: In The Mouth A Desert
4: Give it a Day
5: Half a fucking Canyon
Song title was implied
when he gave song titles as favourites and not albums titles
anyone see them live?
I saw them I think three times at Reading, they were almost the highlight of the day at reading 92 (and just found the footage on youtube last night, wow) just when trigger cut was breaking through, they were so much better live in some cases, hence:
fight this generation (live, reading 94)
grounded (live, reading 94)
strings of nashville (b-side)
ed aimes (peel sesh)
oh who am I trying to kid!? Gold Soundz, Stereo, Trigger Cut, all the hits...
Carrot Rope -
- for the dance in the video! Galoshes and claps a go-go! Brill.
