I don't get all the hate for that song.  It's not that bad.  I actually prefer it to Nice Dream.

Bones and Sulk are two songs from The Bends I have never warmed up to. And it's been 10+ years since I first heard them, so I guess that won't change.

 

Imagine replacing "Bones" with "Talk Show Host" and "Sulk" with "The Trickster." That'd make The Bends perfect.

I adore Lucky, but once Jigsaw really struck me, it just became a nearly flawless song.

this is a tough choice...if we were talkin the live versions of morning bell and spinning plates they would definitely be considered. but since that is not the case, it's between jigsaw and GUTG. Andddd i will choose Jigsaw. GUTG is beautiful...but Jigsaw is both beautiful AND mad groovy

Nah--just hadn't been done since TKOL hit the scene. But the title did give me the extra push to click "Create new thread" or whatever, vs many times when I type up an entire thread and just hit cancel and go back to work. I'm a copywriter, I try to make all my topics have decent titles.

Jigsaw sucks so much. The lyrics are terrible, the guitar is fun to play but boring to listen to.

 

Cringeworthy lyrics, really.
