I'm surprised that "Voyager" has gotten so many votes. It sounds nice, but is not really much of a song IMO.

I feel that Neil Young's tracks this week are pretty weak. That may be the reason why...

Animal Collective - In the Flowers
I like Thrasher too, but I'm one of the few Animal Collective fans left in the forum and In the Flowers is my favorite MPP song (especially because of the 2:51 mark)

The Velvet Underground - I'm Set Free
Frank Ocean - Crack Rock
The Modern Lovers - Hospital
pass
The Streets - Turn the Page
Sorry Burial, love your music but Turn the Page has been in my top 200 songs for a long long time. Original Pirate Material is an album where I dislike all the acclaimed tracks and like the non acclaimed ones, that's the most egregious example of the kind I can think of.

Marvin Gaye - Distant Lover

2 hours left to vote...hopefully I'll be able to get the next topic up soon, but if I don't within the next half hour, someone else can start the topic if they're so inclined.
