Yellowcard Band • Page 110

I'm still too sad to make a list, or even listen to them for the time being

 

Surprised with the limited time limit, songs from their latest are making it over any other album songs. I do like Empty Street enough to understand that one a little bit. @FTank using RIP as the opener makes more sense too but its just..........leaving some essential YC songs off.

 

RIP, Place, and Savior are instant YC highlights. I also considered Fields and Fences and I could even see throwing The Hurt Is Gone in there as a mid-album "interlude" (obviously in a very loose sense) of sorts. The self-titled hasn't stuck with me so much overall because it's pretty uneven, but it's got the same number and quality of high points that their other releases do.

 

Surprised @BTDandFeelingThis hasn't done a Yellowcard bracket game yet

 

I guess that is where you lose me. I like those songs, but when you say instant YC highlights it makes me think of all their other stand out tracks. I guess they could just have a 50 song stand out catalog lol

 

I've considered it :p

 

I want to do like a top 20-25 songs and see what the distribution is like. My guess is that PW, SA, LaS, and S/T would be represented far more than the others on mine.

 

Now.

 

LaS and S/T over OA?

 

It would be

 

i still haven't listened to their last album at all

 

I'm not gonna rank them, but I think these are roughly my top 25.

Ocean Avenue
One Year, Six Months
Holly Wood Died
Shrink the World
Keeper
Shadows and Regrets
Afraid
Date Line (I Am Gone)
You and Me and One Spotlight
Cut Me, Mick
The Sound of You and Me
With You Around
Sleep in the Snow
Telescope
Rivertown Blues
Southern Air
Fragile and Dear
Madrid
Lift a Sail
MSK
Rest in Peace
A Place We Set Afire
Leave a Light On
Savior's Robes
Fields and Fences

So... OA: 2, L&S: 1, PW: 7, WYTTSY: 2, SA: 4, LaS: 4, S/T: 5

 

Yeah, like I don't even have to think about it lol.

 

We may need to rank the YC songs LP-style.

 

My love for Way Away, Empty Apartments, Back Home and Breathing wants me to argue, but I have to remember I am the one in the AFI thread always saying Crash Love is their best and how that probably makes people feel lol.

 

Hahaha I am so down.

 

I've never seen you say that hahaha that's in contention for the least popular opinion on this site.

Empty Apartment is one of my least favorite YC songs

 

The only thing is I'll skip OFTK because there's just no point... I've listened to it like three times

 

Same here! We doing Underdog EP though?

 

Ehhh

 

Right on. I like it enough but haven't gone back to it in probably like 15 years if that says anything

 

I think I heard it for the first time this year lol and was pretty indifferent

 

I think it bridges the sound/gap between OLFTK and OA pretty well and Ryan sounds like he is coming into his own/finding his sound in the band more on that EP.

That being sad if we weren't counting OLFTK, all the Underdog songs would probably make the bottom of the list so it doesn't hurt to skip it.

 

A true YC ranking would include Midget Tossing and Where We Stand, too ;)

Also, Underdog EP is awesome.

 

I've always wondered where those albums stood. Are they the same band but different singer before Ryan or was there another band called YC before?
