Hi Brad and Brad,
Today is the day that I share something with Vs. However, I came into this world 12 years before this masterpiece did. Last year I wrote down my track-by-tack take on what I consider to be their best collection of songs given that I cannot bring myself to skip any track. My favorite song(s) on this album have changed over time. Just like you guys say about ranking all 10 of their studio albums, my least-favorite track on Vs. is still a "top 50" song for me. I wrote out my track ranking this morning, which will probably change if you asked me to give this list a week from now.
1. Rearviewmirror
2. W.M.A.
3. Glorified G
4. Indifference
5. Blood
6. Animal
7. Go
8. Daughter
9. Dissident
10. Leash
11. Elderly Woman
12. Rats
2. W.M.A.
3. Glorified G
4. Indifference
5. Blood
6. Animal
7. Go
8. Daughter
9. Dissident
10. Leash
11. Elderly Woman
12. Rats
For the longest time I considered Glorifed G and Dissident my two favorites, however since listening to your podcast I've discovered so much more about the songs on Vs. that has changed my top 2. I hate putting any of these songs at the bottom of any list. Rats is a great song, because of the lyrics criticizing our society and how much Jeff stands out on this track.
This is my first birthday I'll have without my mom. I'm not sure how I'll feel as the day goes. While I was going through some old photos last week, I found one of her in the hospital with me shortly after my birth. I was in the NICU, because I was 1 month premature. I'm glad I was born in mid-October and am grateful to have a common date with the historic release of their second album.
Forced to endure, what I could not forgive,
Chris
