Hypothetical OLP song countdown

Heavy Alibi · Post by **Heavy Alibi** » 3/1/2009, 7:16 am

I know we rarely do these types of threads, maybe the enthusiasm for them isn't there... but I wasn't here back in the day so I wanna do some of these!!! :cry:

so sorry if I'm being annoying but anyway....

Let's say you're a radio station doing a top 20 OLP song countdown, you need to balance the good "radio" hits with the great songs no-one's ever heard. And you need to make an album/timespan balance (i.e. not use 10 songs from Spiritual Machines). How would it go? Here's mine:

20. All For You (2002)
19. Life (2001)
18. Somewhere Out There (2002) (obligatory because of its success)
17. The Birdman (1995)
16. Are You Sad? (2001)
15. Out of Here (1993)
14. Made to Heal (2001)
13. Is Anybody Home? (1999)
12. One Man Army (1999)
11. Stealing Babies (1999)
10. Carnival (1997)
9. In Repair (2001)
8. Blister (1999)
7. Neon Crossing (1995)
6. Starseed (1995)
5. Thief (1999)
4. Naveed (1995)
3. Superman's Dead (1997)
2. The Wonderful Future (2001)
1. 4 AM (1997)

And no, 4 AM is not necessarily my favorite OLP song.

If I heard an OLP countdown, and Clumsy wasn't even on the list, id probably never listen to that radiostation again

How can you call yourself an OLP fan and FORGET about Clumsy??

LOL, and I think I was even listening to it when I did this :oops:

Interesting idea for a thread! Decent list, too... though I wouldn't exactly say it's "balanced". :lol:

At least throw A/L/S in there somewhere!

About as Fair and Balanced as Fox news.

I mean how can you leave out R.K. 2029?

Very easily since it doesn't exist.
