Re: This goes double for The Smiths, The Cure, and Depeche Mode
[quote name="ndd"][quote name="Fullofkittens"]Luckily, they all have them. =) The first band that came to mind from the subject was Siouxie and The Banshees. =| Weird. The only thing about this is that there are some bands who have whole albums that are totally rock solid and the singles comps make it seem like they only have a couple of good songs: <b>Devo</b> Best Of contains: "Peek-a-boo", "Here to Go (dance mix)" which makes it less good than: <i>Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!, Freedom of Choice</i> <b>Elvis Costello and The Attractions </b> Best Of contains: "Year For The Roses", "Love Field" which makes it less good than: any of their first 4 albums <b>The Police:</b> Best Of contains: some bullshit slow version of "Don't Stand So Close To Me" which makes it less good than: <i>Outlandos_d'Amour</i>, which contains "So Lonely" which is not on any compilation I know of. >:( <b>Pet Shop Boys</b> Best Of contains: 70% terrible shit that nobody ever heard of which makes it less good than: <i>Actually</i> plus just buying the mp3 for "Always On My Mind" and "Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)"[/quote] The older I get the less I agree with you about PSB, I think they have a really specific thing but it's an important thing. [youtube id="LtjFsFXU9YU"] They wrote Being Boring. [youtube id="Moh01AkdovA"] "I Want A Dog" has become my signature party close-out song. Tho I'm not a fan of dogs. I'm a fan of repression. They're so fucking repressed it's luxurious. [/quote]
