I liked the album version of this song well enough, but the live performance on Colbert shortly after the album came out really sold it for me.

17-14 is a strooooong section.

[goodson]

dum surfer!!!!!!!!!!!

[ten15]

Awesome job and fantastic list! Thanks, tim

[sthubbins]

weird, good list!

[teekoh]

Woo! Good stuff.

Thanks again, Tim!

[Deleted]

Glad everyone's enjoying it. I think it's a solid list, just wish we could have based it off more data.

[Xamnam]

We all know my list would have been all noise, no signal. Aside from pushing Jens up to #5.

Alright, considering that, yes, I let you all down.

[dij22]

Weird but fun list. Good job team.

[Deleted]

I guess I had never heard Bodak Yellow before today? I like it - probably would have made my list with some more listens.

Great job, Tim!
