My same intention but it's too difficult.

This is the sort of thing I think about when I'm at the dentist's. In a good way.

1. Yes
2. A Design For Life
3. La Tristesse Durera
4. Motorcycle Emptiness
5. Everything Must Go
6. To Repel Ghosts
7. 4st 7lb
8. Marlon JD (replaces Mausoleum as it's absurd that nothing from JFPL is on there...does no one else like Mausoleum?!)
9. Faster
10. This Is Yesterday
11. Further Away
12. No Surface All Feeling

Hmm...there's a THB underbelly there.

I keep attempting to compile this list, and keep getting stuck. But, for what seemslike the hundredth time:
1: 1985
2: a design for life
3: intravenous agnostic
4: motorcycle emptiness
5: you love us
6: the year of purifiction
7: roses in the hospital
8: I'm just a patsy
9: faster
10: all we make is entertainment
11: stay beautiful
12: nobody loved you

Hmmm. Some strange choices. As much as I like tyop, I'd never use it as a song to try and introduce someone to the manics. Odd.
Though annoingly, if I were compiling a manics cd for a friend, using this formula would automatically preclude masses, motown junk and suicide is painless, three of my favourite manics choons.

Now I'm going to attempt to compile the 'least favourite' version of this.
1: the everlasting
2: if you tolerate this your children will be next
3: born to end
4: indian summer
5: I live to fall asleep
6: she bathed herself in a bath of bleach
7: I'm not working
8: marlon jd
9: born a girl
10: gold against the soul
11: fragments
12: don't be evil

Which raises the question: why was it easier to pick the least favourite one than the favourite one?

1. Yes
2. From Despair To Where
3. Of Walking Abortion
4. Motorcycle Emptiness
5. Archives of Pain
6. My Little Empire
7. Roses in the Hospital
8. Mausoleum (Marlon JD came so close!)
9. Faster
10. His Last Painting
11. Pretension/Repulsion
12. No Surface All Feeling

The opener was probably the hardest decision! Tracks 9 and 10 seem to be pretty poor in my Manics albums. Pretension/Repulsion sneaked in ahead of Stay Beautiful as I can't believe, that despite JFPL being my second or third fave Manics album I didn't have a single track in there.
