The Obligatory Rank the Albums Thread

[Tellurium]

In order of favorites. I know rank-ordering art is inherently lame and a sadistic task to put upon anyone, but hey, it's Sunday and I'm bored.

1. The Bachelor
2. Wind on the Wires
3. The Magic Position
4. Lycanthropy

[shannon]

this is hard! it sort of depends what kind of mood i'm in, cause each one's so disctinctively different. lycanthropy's sort of... nostalgic and innocent and crude in equal measures, wind in the wires is mellow and chilled, the magic position is cheesy and energetic and the bachelor's all dramatic etc.

basically i can't decide, so i'm going to rank them according to how much i liked patrick's hair on each one
1. wind in the wires
2. lycanthropy
3. the magic position
4. the bachelor

I like them all....but I always pick Wind in the Wires when I feel like listen to him.
so that one is my first pick, no matter what mood I'm in...
and the others are strongly following on second place.

I feel kind of bad now
I can't rate them. it's not fair.

At the end of this (like, when lots of people have responded), someone should do a tally, adding up the numbers that each album receives. So the album with the lowest number would be the most popular, and the album with the highest number, the least popular. I think it'd be really interesting to see the numbers that each album gets. If Tellurium doesn't want to be that person (if you aren't quite that sad ) then I'd be more than happy to.





-edit-

Which album is the most crap?

Lycanthropy
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Wind in the Wires
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

The Magic Position
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

The Bachelor
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

It's ideas like this that make me love you Florence.

1. Lycanthropy- In my opinion, it's hard to find another album as original as this. Blends so many different styles in my opinion.
2. Wind in the Wires- First album of PW's I ever bought; Reminds me of the time in my life when I had a bit of an identity crisis and was trying to find something that defined who I was. Beautiful and haunting.
3. The Bachelor- A really daring album around at the moment. Dramatic and memorable.
4. The Magic Position- A lot of really catchy tunes, but the 'Secret Garden' as well :s

[Tellurium]

Florence, I think that's a great idea. And as it happens I am that sad. But looks like you've already started it off! We can share the tallying duties at our convenience, if you like.

My favourites change around a lot (except the Bachelor, sorry Patrick, that's always last), so I'll rank in order of how long they ruled my life/the best memories surrounding them

1. The Magic Position/Lycanthropy
2. Wind in the Wires
3. The Bachelor

Awh, thank you

It's been a long, long day of last minute essay-writing. My brain is fried and confused, and making tally charts is what it identifies as amusement now.

Oh good Well, I'm going to end my nine-hour spell on the computer now and go to bed, plus I start school tomorrow, so would you like to take over?

As it stands:

Lycanthropy

Wind in the Wires
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

The Magic Position
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

The Bachelor
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII


Feel free to pass the baton back to me at any time, though!



Ps. I hope Patrick doesn't ever see this. It would be quite disheartening to learn that your fans think your music is getting progressively worse over time.
