me: the eternal

Bah, polls are fun.

yeah I forgot to vote... done now!

Sonic Nurse with Murray Street coming in very close. The Eternal has a shot at being my favorite depending on how well it holds up within a year or so.

Nurse, not even close.

the eternal. maybe just because it's the most recent and i still can't get enough of it, though.

Sonic Nurse. Sonic Nurse coming in pretty close at second, and Sonic Nurse at third. hell, my top ten of the decade would be Sonic Nurse, Sonic Nurse, Sonic Nurse, Sonic Nurse, Sonic Nurse, Sonic Nurse, Sonic Nurse, Sonic Nurse, Sonic Nurse and that album Sonic Nurse at ten.

but fuck, Sonic Nurse is number one

Nurse.

nurse too

wow. I thought NYCG&F or Murray Street would take this thread easily. I didn't think Nurse was that well-loved on here, but it's cool.

So, do you guys like Sonic Nurse?

NYC Ghosts and Flowers.

Has everything I'd want in an SY album.

well almost...but that's it.

NYC Ghosts followed close by Sonic Nurse.
or
Sonic Nurse followed close by NYC Ghosts.

Anyway, i've voted fo NYC Ghosts

That's very easy.

Murray Street.

I guess it's Sonic Nurse.

It is.

sonic nurse. yet to hear the eternal though!

That's a tough call, and I pretty much had to pick out of 4 equal favorites, but I went with Sonic Nurse.

Yay, I'm in the majority! I'm statistically cool!

Someone picked SYR5? Heh, I thought that one would have gotten the least amount of votes actually.

Sure was easy for me.

BUT Who voted Rather Ripped?

SONIC NURSE

I was listening to Sonic Nurse in the car today and when Dripping Dream came on my 4 year old girl started singing "Little Lady Bug, Lady Bug, Little Little Lady Bug..." After about a minute and a half of this, she finally stops, looks at me in the mirror with these strange, perplexed eyes and goes "Wait, that's not the right song."

I started cracking up :)

hmm hard to say, but if I had to choose only one it's sonic nurse. but I enjoy nyc gf - murray - nurse as trilogy.

I totally agree, it's a pretty solid trilogy of albums. While Murray Street has some of my favorite tunes on it, I find Sonic Nurse to be a bit more consistent. So a reluctant Sonic Nurse.

This.

not me, hha, but someone who likes it a lot i suppose

Nurse, but Eternal sure is coming in a damn close second. It may overtake after seeing them this tour, we'll see.

murray street. for a bunch of reasons



I never knew that we are so close in that...NICE!

I voted for Murray Street.

ha because you are kidding and don't really like that album?

I was confused by that post too

Murray Street!

Sonic Nurse winning is a surprise, but a good one.

bump

I voted NYC Ghosts N' Flowers
one of the most different, but also one of the best I think.

did i post here already?
