Too difficult to choose just one...I'm exclude those on 'Lipstick Traces' and 'Forever Delayed' just to make things more interesting;
'Tennessee (I Get Low)' - wonderful punk track, much better than the GT version. 'Too Cold Here' - beautiful acoustic lament. 'Black Garden' - atmospheric track, almost an after-echo of 'The Holy Bible' with a great solo. 'Buildings For Dead People' - should have been held back for 'KYE' really, and included along with... 'Locust Valley' - as much as I love 'KYE', this kind of inventive rock track would have improved it. 'Litany' - needs a second verse (lyrically), but seeing as the verse it has is practically perfect it's easier to forgive. 'Welcome To The Dead Zone' - I doubt I need to explain this choice. 'I Know The Numbers' - another gorgeous acoustic track, I can even forgive it for being a love song. 'Engage With Your Shadow' - and no, I'm *not* joking. 'Empty Motorcade' - ok, technically it's on a deluxe edition on an album but that doesn't count. Should have been on the album, maybe even a single.

You're completely right about Buildings For Dead People suiting KYE. I hadn't thought about that before, so thank you (I always felt Prologue To History and Montana/Autumn/78 were the link tracks between TIMTTMY and KYE). Locust Valley should have been on KYE. It has an itchy, frazzled, long grass heatwave summer feel to it. One of the better experiments from that era. I have been deeply in love with Litany ever since I first heard it, so for me it is simply wondrous - I never tire of it. Should have been on Lifeblood (which, frustratingly enough, was originally titled Litany), and maybe even a single.

'hibernation', as it's still the most pathetically beautiful admission of a defeat most of us experience in our 20s and 30s.

Automatik Teknicolour Black Holes For The Young Caldey Dying Breeds Never Want Again Patrick Bateman Quarantine (In My Place Of) What Happened To The Blue Generation Quote:

Montana/Autumn/78
Empty Motorcade (the solo / breakdown = love) Black Holes For The Young Sepia Dying Breeds Everything Will Be (despite the horrific odes to hair-combing) Never Want Again Dead Trees & Traffic Islands (A great title, and the outro makes it - this felt so strange upon hearing this at release. Actually, Dead Passive sounded strange as hell, but I find that one to be shit)

Still not my favourite though, I think Donkeys would have to be up there with Automatik Teknicolour as strong contenders.
