7/10. An early favorite. Love what I assume to be James' guitar parts during the verses. I think if it was mixed better during the heavier parts it'd be a bitchin' tune.

Rate the given song from 1-10. 1 being the lowest, 10 being the highest
The higher the number, the more you enjoy the song.
You can use any kind of decimal addition you like.
Anything below a 1 will be counted as a 1.
Anything above 10 will be counted as a 10.
If i can't tell what you're trying to rate the song your vote will not be counted.
If you for some reason decide to change your vote, don't modify your first vote, make a new post saying what your old and new scores are.
I'll compile the results for each song once the replies slow down or stop coming in, after that the score is set.
Feel free to discuss.

You're obliged to pretend respect for people and institutions you think absurd. You live attached in a cowardly fashion to moral and social conventions you despise, condemn, and know lack all foundation. It is that permanent contradiction between your ideas and desires and all the dead formalities...

6 out of 10. My least favorite James Iha song and one of my least favorite SP songs in general.

Nothing too special, but I enjoy the line "I got so scared I made mistakes." 5/10

I think I've only listened to it fully once.
It's my least favorite James song, I'm giving it a 4.

For me the worst pumpkins song ever, and the worst James song from all I know (but not the worst song of all songs there are:). But surely 1 point.:zzz

This song is horrible, it makes Widow Wake My Mind look like Thirty Three. James should have been asking Jesus to forgive him for making such a crappy song. 1 / 10.
I don't mean to hurt anyone, I'm just speaking my personal opinion.
