They aren't BAD singles, but in comparison to other Manics stuff they are not great! Autumnsong, I love the guitar in it, some good lyrics "Wear your love like it is made of hate" for example, but ruined by THAT LINE. Just compare it lyrically (I won't compare it with a Richey/Nicky lyric that wouldn't be fair)- "To black out all the words of men, and demons too but not even then, solitude sometimes is" vs "What have you done to your hair, done to your hair, done to your hair". That's why it's in my bottom five. Just my opinion though, not worth anything.
