Yeah, sure, they honestly asked each of these artists to pick their favorite SY song, and amazingly it came out with a list of their most popular singles (yeah, with "Tuff Gnarl" in place of "Schizophrenia", but that's the only exception!) Hmm, could it be that the A&R team who put this together spoke to the managers of these acts and asked if their names could be associated with these particular songs? I believe the write-ups came from the real artists (after their songs were assigned to them), and maybe Watt even demanded to at least get to pick another song from Sister besides the single, but overall the whole thing is obviously completely put together.

Good songs? Sure. The ones the label always got most behind like every other greatest hits album ever.

what HITS? what HITS are you talking about?

what HIT has sonic youth ever had?

their best selling "single" is the little trouble girl one.

they have no HITS. chill! remember this is an album for people at starbucks, many of which have never heard any beck, much less sonic youth.
