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 perfect closer to an amazing album. I love how the end of this song recalls the piano from the first track on the album, which makes you remember that humble beginning and reinforces how epic the journey you've just been on is. Amazing stuff. An easy 10 given its place on the album and how well it works there; however, as a song by itself, I think this one falls just short of a 10.

This song really reminds us of Darcy and James's presence with Billy and within the Pumpkins. They had some real importance. When considering the band as a group of equals, rather than Supreme Leader and co, is a much brighter concept. Before Darcy and James lost the plot they were actually good musicians. Had Billy allowed them to contribute more freely, we may have some very different music on our hands.

As this song makes us loyal fans tear at the eyes, I imagine it's even more difficult to listen to for :jimmy :james :darcy :billy

Great closer, but taken alone...

8/10
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 absolutely agree. I give it a 9. I also love the last line Jimmy adds to A silver rain will wash away (the pain).

I like those lines too. Also "Goodnight, always, to all that's pure that's in your heart". Great lyrics all around which create the feeling of a peaceful ending and a sad loss.

Great way to end the album. Though it comes as a surprise, it makes it even more special that all members get a shot at some vocals. And the MCIS coda at the end completes the album in a beautiful way.

9.1.
