I have to agree w/most and say Youth Quake is one of my favs at the moment, Hotel Rio is another and has since day 1, long w/Amethyst.  Also Bleu Eyes and Bleed Out are strong as well

Modzilla, Blue Eyes, Amethyst and Hotel Rio are my favorites from the album.

I think Modzilla and Hotel Rio would do well with a serious radio push.

My favorite is Blue Eyes, such a beautiful song. Also digging the classic grunge feel of Bleed Out which shows Scott as the alternative pioneer that he is. Also really like Beach Pop, a very upbeat and catchy tune. I've been finding myself singing The Way She Moves a bit too.

3 way tie so far. I definitely think Youth Quake and Hotel Rio could be radio hits, but for Circles.... I wouldn't mind if they rerecorded it in a way that's closer to how they play it live, and push that as a single.

It fits well on the album the way it sounds, but it's a little too "Happy In Galoshes" for the radio, if that makes sense. Needs more of a straight ahead vibe.


Looking forward to seeing more votes for tie breakers!!

THIS. I love 'Circles' and it's my favourite on the album but I prefer the live versions, it's paced better, feels less rushed and Scott's ad libs (ooooh ooooh's!) are great! He should've added them on the studio version!
Nothing matters again, I didn\'t think we\'d last that long

Circles, Beach Pop, Amethyst, and Parachute are the biggest contenders for me.  No offense, but Youth Quake is my least favorite so I'm surprised that it's so popular.

I agree about Youthquake, not a favorite of mine either. I don't dislike it, but it wouldn't be in my top 5 from the album...

I feel the same way about beach pop,  it's the only song I consistently skip

1. Blue Eyes

2. Hotel Rio

Can't stand Youth Quake, maybe I'm weird though.

Same here, just cant get into it.  I'm a semi-habitually skipper of "The Way She Moves" though too, and thats another favorite of some people on here.

I am so loving this album!

My favorites are TWSM, Blue Eyes (my 3-yr-olds favorite), Beach Pop (Aaron, you're cray), and my two favorites -- Hotel Rio and Youth Quake
How could they not notice it?! Because it's a little mint.  It's a Junior Mint!

My favorites are Beach Bop, White Lightning, Amethyst, Blue Eyes, Beach Bop and Circles. Lol half of the album!
If I had to pick an essential track it would be Amethyst or Beach Bop

Voted for Hotel Rio, but my favorites remain Rio, Way She Moves, and White Lightning. I'd also like to throw in an honororary mention for the live version of Circes. Such a shame, the live version is infinitely better than the one on the album.
