[Freaky Prince]

Added the results in excel and I'm a bit shook at the leading song so far, tho the latest entry gave it its lowest point so far so it might change 

23 participants so far

This rate made me realize their cover of I Think We're Alone Now isnt as bad as i remember. Its the type of song that really suits Xenomania's production, and i find it actually lowkey better than the 80s version ngl

relistened to the whole list twice before entering my scores, and as someone who didn't become a GA fan until after they disbanded it really put into perspective how baffling some of their singles choices were  for such an excellent discography they really chose some weak ass singles, especially the Chemistry era sans Biology was boring af for such a great and diverse album 

[BraveNewSeth]

I would only complain about the Chemistry single, because why are half of them ballads? I'd swap those with Models and Watch Me Go. And obviously BCYLM with OTM/ENAT.

Honestly i think Chemistry is the only time they had a bad single run (which its a shame but that album is their best imo).

 

As much of a bop Long Hot Summer is, its not lead single material. It actually felt more like a standalone single and it was meant to be one originally, since it was supposed to be on that Herby movie but it was placed on Chemistry after that didnt happen. Its easily their weakest lead and feels disjointed on Chemistry.

 

Then there's See The Day. No comment.

 

Whole Lotta History would've been a cute album cut but it felt redundant as a single and follow up to STD (). Chemistry is not the type of era that should have 2 ballad singles, let alone 2 consecutive ones at that.

 

They're lucky Biology is their best song and helped camouflage all that mess. No wonder Something Kinda Ooh smashed right out of the gate, the UK was tired of their ballads.

 

Models, Watch Me Go (!!!) and Wild Horses were all right there 

[Gabers05]

Definitely doing this!! Need to be fair and resist the urge to give out so many 10s. But excited to partake in this.

[Gelato]

chemistry single run was good to me idk. only one i'd replace is see the day. whole lotta history is a classic and long hot summer has had a redemption. and obviously biology is legendary too.

 

i love models, waiting and watch me go but i can't imagine any of them as singles. they were born to be fan favourites/cult classics

yeah I guess I am mostly referring to Chemistry but also I'm just not a fan of their ballads and covers at all - i know why they were released and they were mostly successful but it makes listening to their 'hits' collection very hit and miss for me when their albums are full of great bops (also can't speak french over girl overboard or control of the knife?)
