    If you mean the CE ones:
    Worst Vow is alright, got cool parts but the worst one.
    Common Existence is pretty sweet, the only one that really would have felt in step with the album tracks..
    Fake Nostalgia has a cool bridge.

    Absurd and Unrealistic Dream would definitely be great to have on the album, maybe replacing Friends in the Armed Forces.

    Another cool thing is the Thursday songs on the split form a complete sentence

    As he climbed the dark mountain in silence, an absurd and unrealistic dream of peace appeared and was gone.

    CE has the best b-sides counting the actual bonus tracks and the envy split songs. You could almost make an excellent album just out of those songs.

    Man it only took me 9 years to discover that.
     
  5. A top 10 song for sure. "Common Existence" is also a favorite of mine.

    Now that's just not true. Maybe better than one or two songs. Maybe it would have been cool in place of the opener though.

    Mystery is the secret ingredient Prestigious

    A little bold. It is a great song and definitely should have been on the album though.

    Resuscitation might be the worst song on CE.

    Imagine the album opening on Last Call. That would be crazy

  15. Time's Arrow is the CE song that took the longest time to grow on me. I love the atmosphere on it. Also, I'm not really sure but wasn't it the first song they teased on myspace few months before the album came out ? Like, they posted a snippet of those weird elephants noises you hear in the background. I remember being creeped out lol.

    I loved Time's Arrow from the beginning, I guess the tie into KtHL helped with that a lot. Also, Last Call > Resuscitation. Resuscitation is my least favorite song on the album. (I still like it a lot though.)

    Hard agree. I love how it's like the centerpiece of CE that links the two halves. Really nice to see it live, too.

    I used to always think I liked ACBTLD more, but No Devolucion has overtaken it. Common Existence is getting very close too.

    My favourite fun Thursday fact is that The Lovesong Writer is inspired by Jeff Mangum

    I said this a while but still haven't followed through (for my first). I need to be peer pressured.
