Just take me (Contrary to Backwater I have never been a fan of this song), Fine fine fine and Drifting away (which I never liked either), so not too hard here to decide

Can't vote for anything. Every song is immense. Superhuman powers were involved in the making of this album. The greatest album Quo ever made. Bar none. Asking me to vote on which songs are pish, is the same as asking me which member of my family I would like to disembowel. It can't be done. Show's how much you know Can't Be Done was on Back To Never Whatever! |

What!!!!  Just Take Me is fabulous! I love it... possibly even more than Backwater. This one is going to take some thought gates. The only one that I can mark down (very slightly) is Drifting Away.... I'll vote for that but will have to think about the other two... |

It's about as great as a steaming wet shite. Ye canny beat a good shite. "Ye canny beat a good shite." Reads like the woman in the Flash adverts extolling the benefits of some anti constipation product. |

For me this is not an album consisting of songs. It is a whole composition that should be listened to from the start to the end as a whole. Not just pick a small part out of it.
I first had this record on a cassette and it was not easy to skip a song then so I always listened to the record from start to beginning and that is the way it should be.
So I totally refuse to vote on this poll. It is like voting what limb you want to cut off your body.

So I totally refuse to vote on this poll. It is like voting what limb you want to cut off your body. I totally understand your thoughts on this. I felt the same when gates started this series of 'least best' polls. Sometimes it is impossible to choose if you love them all equally or view the whole album as a complete work. But now we do have the choice to skip certain songs (whether it's lack of time or dislike) it's interesting to see which songs more people agree on. Doesn't mean the songs are shite  I love them all but I have decided on Break The Rules and Fine Fine Fine to go with Drifting Away. As with Hello, the only way I could do it was by a process of elimination. Which ones would I have to play given limited time.... |

To reiterate - you are not voting to necessarily say you think a song is rubbish - just to say the other 5 songs are better - you had less of a problem when you were voting for the "best 3" on Quo. It is a hard thing to do, it is meant to be. So please try to vote - as Viv says, it is interesting. Well if you put it that way then I'll say Just Take Me, Don't Think It Matters, and Fine Fine Fine. .. that's almost half of my 'most often' favourite Quo album ffs. I say 'most often' because my favourite Quo album often changes between Piledriver, Quo, and On The Level but Quo generally wins out. |

I really don't get why JTM has so many votes! For me, like LL and MOTT, it goes with Backwater as a given. I was gutted at the convention when one of the tribute band played Backwater but didn't follow with Just Take Me...

I understand how you theoretically think but for me if you remove one of the songs the whole package will be less good. |

The lovely Molly Weir. I used to work with a wummin who was the spitting image of her. She was always 'working' the true test of an actors worth. |
