bagnelli Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Hi There's a list counting down Wilco's ten best songs over on What Culture.Agree? Disagree?Read it here: http://whatculture.com/music/10-best-wilco-songs.php Quote Link to post Share on other sites
I'm braggin' Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Interesting mix of songs there. I could see that be somebody's top ten, but out of that whole list I think only Misunderstood and maybe California Stars could be in mine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rhino4evr Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 sorry, but I just refuse to scroll through 10 pages of ads. If someone wants to post their list, then I'd be happy to comment. I saw that You Satellite was Number 10...that's a pretty ballsy statement considering the album in only a month old. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jbray Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 The List is as follows:10. You Satellite9. Misunderstood8. California Stars7. Hummingbird (Soma/Alternate Version)6. Magazine Called Sunset5. Radio Cure4. Spiders (Kidsmoke)3. Venus Stop the Train2. I am Trying to Break Your Heart1. Impossible Germany Only 4 and 5 would translate to my top ten so, to each their own.

smells like flowers Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I miss Spiders. The acoustic version is gorgeous and was in heavy rotation a while back, but there's nothing like the full-bore electric version. Hope it makes it back on the setlist soon! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackberry Rust Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 No 'Heavy Metal Drummer' or 'Shot In The Arm' - thank goodness. Really interesting list there. The inclusion of Venus Stop The Train is really inspired. By sheer coincidence I was listening to this track on repeat just yesterday - must have been the first time I'd listened to it in a couple of years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muzzle of Dan Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Glad they didn't just choose the obvious tunes. i don't know if Impossible Germany is Wiclo's "best" song - whatever that means.. I might be able to argue that I Am Trying To Break Your Heart is their "best" song - at least in my listening experience... I'm sure I could argue with myself if I thought about it a bit more.

rhino4evr Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I don't agree with that list at all really. Via Chicago? hello? Also I know it's over played, but I still think Jesus, Etc is one of the best songs Jeff has ever written. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Panther Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Didn't Jay Bennet co-write Jesus etc with Jeff? In no particular order the top ten wilco songs are. Radio CureSunken Treasure Theologians Ashes Of American Flags I am Trying to break your heart Via Chicago Say You Miss Me Hell Is Chrome California StarsJesus etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slapdash Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I rationally know lists ranking artistic output are fatuous, but the heart wants what the heart wants. So, for what it's worth (absolutely nothing), here is one human's opinion.10. Box Full of Letters 9. Spiders (kidsmoke) 8. Misunderstood 7. Born Alone 6. Via Chicago - live version 5. Poor places 4. Ashes of American Flags 3. Impossible Germany 2. Sunken Treasure 1. I am trying to break your heart The reasoning behind this list would become dissertation length...but to pigeon hole it: lyrics are good, but so is noise rock Quote Link to post Share on other sites
