by Kayleia

as there is a lot of discussion in the Mercury thread saying that it is the worse thing they have ever done, please list and discussion your top 5 Bloc Party songs. Please draw your answers from the past 2 albums, LP's, B-sides and songs that were never placed on an album. (doesn't that sound like a exam question?)

1. Little Thoughts
2. So Here We Are
3. Banquet
4. Waiting for the 7:18
5. The Prayer
6. Sunday
7. I Still Remember (Music Box and Tears Remix)

Sorry, I couldn't do 5 and for me, this list could go on forever.

MINE:

1. Chinese Burn
2. Tulips
3. Little Thoughts
4. Banquet
5. Staying Fat
6. Blue Light Remix


Shit, forgot

So Here We Are.


chinese burn? wtf? its not even a particularly good song

mine:
a) so here we are
b) the answer
c) little thoughts
d) this modern love
e) skeleton/marshals

i think that every song they actually released up until and including the present was good though. the worst being this is not a competition.


1. Tulips

2. She's hearing voices
3. This modern love
4. Little thoughts
5. Uniform

In no particular order. Though the track from the last album would keep its place if it was.


forever?

forever MIGHT be slightly exaggeratory.


very hard

1. banquet
2. staying fat
3. so here we are
4. The Prayer
5. Song for clay

tulips and little thoughts coming in close for 6th and 7th. Alot of the early demo's were quality too, shame they never made it on the album i think, a b-sides and rarities album would be nice.


I think Silent Alarm was re-released

with some early demos on there like little thoughts and maybe tulips. I could be wrong...


shit

forgot she's hearing voices, ball bags


Mine

1. Like Eating Glass
2. Positive Tension
3. Banquet
4. So Here We Are
5. This Modern Love

I wouldn't say they're in any particular order.
