Shortcut To Moncton Posted September 23, 2005 Posted September 23, 2005 Yes! Great idea. But one problem is see is that everyone will be biased and choose Rooms songs over older material because they are more fresh to the ears. 1) Flashdance II 2) The Rat Who WOULD Be King 3) Tripoli 4) Entresol 5) Life Beyond The Minimum Safe Distance 6) M.

asmodi Posted September 24, 2005 Posted September 24, 2005 (edited) Two questions: (not votes) 1) Where can I get "Push"? 2) Isn't "Can't Explain" not really an MG song, considering it's a cover and has never been on an album? Votes: 1 Flashdance II 2 Rat Who Would Be King 3 Tripoli (Rooms) 4 Entresol 5 (no vote) 6 Man From Harold Wood 7 The Fine Art of Falling Apart 8 The Last Poem's Poet 9 Four Minute Mile Edited September 24, 2005 by asmodi
