Love this album, though it's been ages since I've heard it! I'd have to listen to the album again to determine a least favorite (and the b-sides!! Need to check those out!!) but The Rolling People is an absolute tune. I'm secretly hoping it wins even though we all know that Bittersweet Symphony wins without even trying.

Not gonna lie, I love the idea of this thread, and will vote, but I haven't listened to the b-sides in years, and one or two I'm not even sure I've heard. I'll check them out again, but until I do, please don't think there's a lack of interest, I have the interest of like 3 people!

Deep Freze, if we needed a more pointless secret track than the cage this one would be it.

Deep Freeze
Besides the singles, One Day is the song I listen to the most.

May just keep this to a single elimination since everyone is voting for Deep Freeze? Anyone else before I end it?

One Day
Tbh, I've never really fully enjoyed this album that much. I like the front half up to and including Neon Wilderness (probably my favourite off the album, something about it that's relaxing but kinda forces you wide awake at the same time), but the second half of the album always sounds a bit repetitive imo, apart from Come On right at the end. I'm guessing Neon Wilderness looks like it's going to go, so I'm hoping for The Rolling People to win now...

The Rolling People, I feel like it would've made more sense on Northern Soul more than on this album.

Never Wanna See You Cry. Sounds like a below average solo Ashcroft number. Which it kind of is.
