Good fruvous songs

What do you think are the best Fruvous songs? Not in terms of being favourites or being whimsical or having great sentemental value or being delightfully silly, what are the most finely crafted Fruvous songs? What can be categorized simply as a really good song?

Well, the first one that pops into my head is My Poor Generation, followed by Nuits de Reve.

*nods emphatically*

Those were the two I was going to mention, as well.

Marry me?

Only�if I can be the g/f who both of you are cheating on each other with.

Those are my 2 favorites as well

Me first!

I don't want to marry you. I'm marrying Nate and having an affair with Annika.

No, me marry Nate first.

But thanks for the show of affection there.

and won't doug be confused.

/me hopes that was just written oddly.

Nate could marry you and Gella and you could all have an affair with me.� That would work for me too!

Perfect!

:)

I can't say I agree with "My Poor Generation." It sounds to me like a good but not great shot at a song attempting to find the common threads of our generation-- but it doesn't come through in the "heart" department for me.

Wow, really?

Cuz, like, to me.... that song was so good that the first time I heard them do it live, I turned to the people with me and asked if they know who wrote it.

:D

I just assumed it was a classic that they were attempting to honor.

independence day. gws. nuits. sahara. half as much and get in the car (i know people seem to be going for the serious, slow tempo stuff here, but these are both extremely well-crafted catchy pop songs.)

oh, and "bad jim."

Amen to that. In that vein of well-crafted catchy pop songs . .

Pis. Co.
Lazy boy!
Kick in the Ass

And yes, I do like Indy as well. :)

I once started writing a marching band arrangement of Half as Much.

Mm.. yeah... indy... and nuits.

Gulf War Song
Nuits De Reve
Horseshoes

Horseshoes. Great call.

Horeshoes was the one that sprang to mind when I was thinking of the question...

Bargainville
Present Tense Tureen
The Goal Judge


*Runs.
O:)

*snort*

Sad Girl, I will Hold on (The album version) and When she talks...Wait good ones?

I like I will hold on.�It's all sweet and cute and co-dependent-romantic.

yes definitely nuits de reve, as well as gulf war song and maybe horseshoes. my personal choices would include sahara (album version), boo time (album version), darlington darling, sad today, and more! (definitely not anything from thornhill... no offence)

ooh, i'm all about sahara, but EXTENDED JAM OPENING VERSON. any show. <3.

Yes! What Sheryl said.

Folks, don't be afraid to pick out the simple ones.� A song doesn't have to be complex to be well crafted, fitting the definition of this forum.� That being said, I think the non-WST Jian songs on Thornhill have some very well crafted hooks. I share an office with someone and it's always fun to see what she picks up on when I play music.� She doesn't know songs or artists in particular, but BOY does she pick up on hooks.� The Fruvous one she centers in on is IWHO.

But I digress.�Everyone pretty much took my choices anyway.� Nuits de Reve is a DUH OF COURSE option.� I'd opt for Down From Above too.� The first time I heard that I was so proud of Mike because you could hear so much maturity in songwriting and his vocal growth from Bargainville to Wood.

Along the lines of simple, I would suggest Lee...

and Love Set Fire

i was actually planning on saying lee And love set fire, but i didnt want to say to many and i picked my other choices over those, but those are some of my favorite fruvous songs ever (ywgttm being my favorite album)

"The first time I heard that I was so proud of Mike because you could hear so much maturity in songwriting and his vocal growth from Bargainville to Wood."

Oh seriously . . .anyone else get kinda annoyed with his voice on Bargainville?

Just listening to Bargainville and seeing my first show back then... I thought he had issues... until I met him and found out he didn't.� HEH.

I wonder if he could imitate Cartman.

heheheheeeee!!!!!!!1one!

Absolutely, as could Jian. Or rather, Cartman could imitate *them*

::sings:: "Stuck my hands into my coat . . .Goddammit!"

*now getting aural image of Cartman singing* "when she taaaaalks... i tell her to GET IN THE KITCHEN AND MAKE ME SOME PIIIIIE!"���

hehehehe!!!! i tell you, it is the only way to fix the song!

Well, maybe we could pitch that as content��for Jian: The Eventual Second Six Songs, Hence Completing the Dozen.�� Ahem!!!

yeah seriously. when the hell is he gonna start recording again? oy.

i hope if he does, though, that they produce it differently. Although I like some of the album, I really really *really* could not recognize his voice. And that saddened me. I miss the gravelliness.

I miss the gravelliness.

Yeah, he's a regular tom waits. ;)

fancy that.� all jian songs.��

err, did I say that?
