  1. But the dropped tracks would be So Cruel and Trying To Throw... not Acrobat which is one of their best songs


  2. Doesn't mean I don't like them I absoutely love them songs but the others I prefer.
  4. I find it interesting that Trip Through Your Wires is ranked so low on JT by so many of you. I've never really like that song (but love the album) and didn't realize that others felt the same way.

    I think EVERY song on AB is a gem. I suppose, however, some are better live than the studio version. Too bad we can't do a comparision for Acrobat - yet?
  6. Should change a few on mine:
