big big big fan. anyone with me here? if so, favourite songs and albums?
favourite songs for me are "hey", "here comes your man", "gouge away", "monkey gone to heaven" and "veluoria".
favourite album without a doubt- doolittle.

Doolittle is their best album without a doubt. The hardcore fans might be sick of listening to it, but it is what it is. Im a big fan of UMass and Debaser. When I worked at a record store a huge fan of their who I worked with made me get Doolittle. I've only heard those songs and the hits, but im suprsed how obscure they've been considering their really good.

Even the spanish stuff is kick ass. I don't know more than 15 words in spanish.

I know nothing of stellarstar, but James Brown is pretty awesome no matter when he plays. Sucks that you missed the Pixies, but the fact is, you got a better deal.

Tell me "The Funky Drummer" is not one of the best funk songs ever.

When i saw the Peppers chicks on speed were performing. nuff said mate.

Anyway. i bought Trompe Le Monde today for £4.99. thanks HMV! and i have to say its a pretty ****ing good album!

Surfer Rosa is my favorite album, but more for sentimental reasons than anything else. I'd have to agree that Doolittle is their best album. Tromp Le Monde is very good too.

My favorite Pixies song would have to be Gouge Away.

marko1892 · 05-03-2005, 04:14 AM

My favourite album is bossanova. the first 3 songs, probably the best into to an album.
