Okay, it's time we got some good old rating threads going again. I'm borrowing this from another forum, hope they don't hate me for it.


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.



THE FIRST SONG!

I Am One

I'm giving it a 7.5

It's a great song, classic Pumpkins, but it's not a song I go out of my way to play.

Comments right but I'm slightly more generous :D I give it 8/10
Your strength is my weakness, your weakness my hate
My love for you just can't explain
Why we're forever frozen, forever beautiful
Forever lost inside ourselves

8.5 - It's a fantastic song, from a fantastic album, from a phenominal band

8.25/10

Kickass. How are you deciding what songs to choose? Just whatever you feel like?
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...

I think he's starting from the official beginning...100 more songs after this, then we start with non-commercial releases and B-sides!

Re:Rate a Song - I Am One 2 years 7 months ago #73723

CD version is a definite 8 :thumbsup live version depends... on whether it's just I am One or I am One with the stupidly long shouting bit

We'll probably do the Earphoria live version eventually, so keep your opinions of that separate from the album version.

Re:Rate a Song - I Am One 2 years 7 months ago #73747

I've always found it difficult to attach numbers to Smashing Pumpkins songs.... I guess the way I think of it is that while I love I am One, it is probably one step away from what I consider my Pumpkins core sacred untouchable beautiful life changing moments. So I guess 9/10 -- but this song is truly indespensable in my opinion and the perfect way to start off gish.

That's pretty much how I feel. I love the music, but I sometimes feel let down by the lyrics. "Siva" is much, much better.

Yeah, I would go with a 9 out of 10 too. "Siva" is definitely the best song on Gish, though.
