Wow, really? 1, 2, and 4 I'd never skip.

 

Radio Cure

What Light

I'm seriously having trouble finding more I'd intentionally skip. I probably wouldn't play all of SBS, but its growing on me.

There isn't a Wilco song that I 'can't stand to listen to'. There are certainly a few that I don't have a strong connection to but there are none that I actually skip or become agitated upon hearing like "The Macarena" or "Ice, Ice Baby". You all honestly 'can't stand' the songs that you mentioned? To each his/her own, of course, but when it comes to songs that I 'can't stand' and take steps to avoid hearing, no Wilco songs are even close.

Come on dcarter. Nobody likes the first part of Spiders/kidsmoke. I think Jeff Tweedy's mom doesn't even have anything nice to say about that forever intro.

 

That said, I can appreciate your sentiment. You keep it cool down there in Tampa F-L-A.

I don't care for disc 2 of Being There. I can't remember the last time I even listed to that. I love disc 1 though.

 

It has Sunken Treasure and Why Would You Wanna Live. I don't see why people like the new acoustic version of Sunken Treasure more. It seems very uninteresting musically.

I like it. Very good for driving somewhere. It's moving music.

Spiders is easily my favorite Wilco song. I much prefer the live version, but the album version is aces.

I usually skip "Can't Stand It". That's because the album is 14 songs long and I want to get to the really good stuff.

 

I skip "Casino Queen", probably for the same reason, there's so much great stuff on AM I'd rather hear in a sitting.

 

That's about it.

 

Sometimes I skip "Misunderstood" to get to "Far, Far Away", because its one of my favorites, but I still like "Misunderstood."

Most of A.M. and Being There.

 

 

If I had to pick the Wilco albums that I play the most they are the ones.......As well as SBS.......I'm not into the noise of AGIB and YHF.......Summer Teeth is borderline.......But I do like the acoustic versions of many of those songs Tweedy does live......

Seeing Pieholden Suite on these lists is killing me.

 

Me too... :(

 

 

and Being There.

 

That's too bad... Being There is probably my favorite Wilco record...

 

My five songs I can't stand to hear.. Doesn't mean they aren't great songs, just over played:

 

Shot In The Arm

Heavy Metal Drummer

I'm The Man Who Loves You

Handshake Drugs

Jesus Etc.

 

At one time, every single one of these songs were my favorite Wilco tunes.. They are just played out for me now..
