I received SSOL cd last week and wanted to get anyones opinion on their favorite songs (all of them) on this album in descending order. I would like to do that with other albums too. Before I give mine, I want to listen to it one more time. Anyone game?

I don't believe the songs on the bottom of these lists are disliked but they're a reflection of a consensus of order. A pecking order. We still love those chickens but we feed off the other ones more...should I change my name to "chicken"?.

Clarification: They are not necessarily disliked and some still love them. Some of the bottom dwellers on my lists are liked by me. That would mean no clunkers for me. I think you must have an album or two without clunkers, don't you?

I haven't liked that song since Roseanne joined that strange Yahoo group. That lady... you just couldn't keep her out of trouble.

Marc, do a search and you'll find we did do a topic (within the last 6 months I think) about having an album without clunkers. We didn't use that word, though. LOL
