In my opinion, the best song is EOTR (seriously might be the best song I have ever heard in this genre).
Worst...(but still excellent) is DOYAM.
Very happy with every song. Outstanding album.

Best for me is Broken Arrow... followed closely by EOTR!
I genuinely have trouble picking a worst... I don't dislike any of them, but I might have to say Stop The Clocks because I hate what they did to the arrangement... or possibly What a Life because it doesn't fit in as much with the vibe of the other songs.

Broken Arrow or Everybody's On The Run.
Dream On or Stop The Clocks.
But honestly they're all great, so it doesn't matter which ones are called the weakest. They're still fantastic tracks.

the best is EOTR... the weakest? well there's quite a few that imo are just middle of the road quality songs. Of course not everyone has the same taste. For instance i know some people think AKA WAL is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but personally i can't stand that song. I am not sure which song is "the worst" yet, verdict is still several days away for me. All i know is EOTR is a great song, and it's a bit sad that Noel decided to open the album with that one, because if im being honest, everything that follows it is just not up to par. Not to say that the rest of the album is bad, it certainly isn't. Stop The Clocks, IIHAG and a couple of other solid efforts make this a good album imo.

I wonder if you would have that opinion of STC and IIHAG had you never heard them before?

No, he didn't. That's part of why he's not playing it live apparently.
Best: BA/DO/IIHAG/WAL
Worst: STC
Still great, but the rest are just so amazingly good!

don't quite like with how Record Machine ended up, but it's still good, I think EOTR is the strongest.

Not too keen on SBAJF and DO, but other than that all is good!

Strongest: EOTR, IIHAG, RM, AKA....BA, STC
Good (middle of the road): TDOYAM, DO, SOTWB (weakest of this tier, but better than those in the weakest category....)
Weakest: WAL, SBAJF
Only after 1 listen, so subject to change, but I don't foresee too many shifts.
WAL has been discussed. SBAJF is fine, but after one listen probably my least favorite on the album (vying with WAL). We'll see if it grows.
DO underwhelmed me, I expected more even though it's still good. I'm expecting it to grow, though.

I wonder if you would have that opinion of STC and IIHAG had you never heard them before? what do you mean about IIHAG ? i had never heard the song until it was posted on youtube. As for the STC demo, i listened to it years ago and never listened to it again until maybe a couple of weeks ago.

Strongest: EOTR/ (SO)TWB Weakest: AKA... Broken Arrow
All songs would get ratings above 8/10 though.

Strongest: Everybody's On The Run/AKA... Broken Arrow/If I Had A Gun...
Weakest: Soldier Boys & Jesus Freaks/AKA... What A Life! - but I still LOVE those songs, don't think there is a bad song on the album, just out of the 10, those are at the bottom for me.

Strongest: BA
Weakest: STC (never that keen on the demo and though it has changed some...it's still not as amazing for me as it is for many)
But I found choosing the strongest and the weakest both so hard...
Honestly...I smiled throughout the whole album. Euphoric.
