06.05.20 | Ok, let's have them. |
DoofDoof
06.05.20 | Too soon maybe |
mynameischan
06.05.20 | glad to see 10 here, one of my favorite on rtj3
i know you weren't hot on rtj4's closing track, but i think if i made a top 10 right now it would be at least near the bottom. others i'd include that aren't here would be "crown" "thursday in the danger room" "panther like a panther" and "jeopardy" |

06.05.20 | thursday in the danger room [2] |

06.05.20 | Sad 'Lie, Cheat, Steal' didn't make it, that'd probably be a top 5-er for me. |
DoofDoof
06.05.20 | 'Lie, Cheat' is only a middle hitter on RtJ2 for me - but that is their best release
It's a top 20 RtJ tune |
Josh D.
06.05.20 | "Legend Has It" was a single for a reason, I am disappointed in you. Go to your room. |
DoofDoof
06.05.20 | Legend Has It is solid yeah, not sure they always choose my favourite tracks as singles tbh |
Josh D.
06.05.20 | that nasty beat, the beat switches, the flows, lyrics, it's perfect |

06.05.20 | 1 is always 1 |
sizeofanocean
06.05.20 | Lie Cheat Steal and Early are contenders for Top 10 too |
DoofDoof
06.05.20 | Early is my second least favourite on RtJ2...only falling behind 'the blowjob song' |
PistolPete
06.05.20 | Usually when I see someone's Top 10 songs for an artist I find maybe I'll share like one-third of it, but here it's about as close as it gets to what I'd say, we clearly like RTJ for the same reasons. |
anarchistfish
06.05.20 | no christmas fucking miracle smh |
DoofDoof
06.05.20 | christmas miracle is one of the best on the debut but I just prefer everything after the first album in general |
TronaldDump
06.05.20 | 1 is easily my favorite RTJ tune, such a banger |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
06.05.20 | "Like a great lost Cypress Hill tune"
Good song but lol what |
DoofDoof
06.05.20 | Well I could 100% hear them singing the chorus - the intro struck up the first time and I instantly thought Cypress Hill too
It’s pretty different for RtJ, it’s the most blunted sort of vibe they’ve got too in a while |
bloodshy
06.05.20 | kinda hard to rate songs like this for a one-hit-wonder band |
DoofDoof
06.05.20 | No it’s really easy if you think they’ve only done one hit - make a ‘top 1’ songs list |
bloodshy
06.05.20 | sorry, i meant hard to do a top ten for a one-hit-wonder group |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
06.05.20 | because his voice is kind of weird? ok.
i don't think its very different for rtj at all, in fact i think its a pretty quintessential example of what they go for. |
DoofDoof
06.05.20 | Tbh listening to it now every thing about it other than it having El-P and Mike on it reminds me of Cypress Hill - if you’d said it was a cover I’d have believed you
Even the way they incorporate the siren sample, every little detail
Prob just me but I can’t unhear it
|
Lord(e)Po)))ts
06.05.20 | Definitely just you |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
06.05.20 | now this sounds like cypress

DoofDoof
06.05.20 | Also does the last song on the new album sample ‘Never Tear Us Apart’ by INXS because I hear that every time |
DoofDoof
06.05.20 | Pots that does indeed sound like Cypress
I was thinking for comparison more something like 'Lick a Shot' but slowed down? lol, like a lot of what I say it probably doesn't stand up to close scrutiny |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
06.05.20 | hmmmmmmmm |
dustandnations
06.06.20 | The last minute of #1 is so so sooo good |
Minushuman24
06.07.20 | damn, I agree with almost none of this. Ooh La la is probably my least favorite RtJ track
1. Run the Jewels
2. ddfh
3. Jeopardy
4. Christmas Fucking Miracle
5. Close Your Eyes
6. Legend Has It
7. Pulling the Pin
8. Oh Mama
9. Lie, Cheat, Steal
10. Thursday in the Danger Room |
Masochist
06.07.20 | I think I agree with minushuman's list a bit more, in that RTJ one is my favorite album by them.
Except Ooh La La is a banger, and Sea Legs not being mentioned yet by anyone is a damn travesty. |
Minushuman24
06.07.20 | sea legs is amazing, that's true. |
sizeofanocean
06.08.20 | Yeah Sea Legs was the first song i ever heard from them. Got me into them very quickly |
Colton
06.09.20 | I honestly think the first album has their best songs, which imo are Sea Legs, Job Well Done and Christmas Fucking Miracle |
Gyromania
06.10.20 | Ooh la la and goonies are very strange picks for RTJ4. The bookends and holy calamafuck are far and away the best imo |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
06.10.20 | Just dropping in to post a comment so that colton will spend the next three weeks thinking about me while crying while shitting himself |
WalrusTusk
06.11.20 | Christmas Fuckin' Miracle and Run the Jewels are missing here. |
OpenUpandLetMeIn
06.12.20 | 1. Angel Duster
2. Early
3. Close Your Eyes (and Count to Fuck)
4. DDFH
5. Oh My Darling Don't Cry
6. Job Well Done
7. A Christmas Fucking Miracle
8. Talk to Me
9. Legend Has It
10. A Report to the Shareholders / Kill Your Masters
Hard to narrow it down to 10. I could easily see myself picking different songs tomorrow. Didn't put any new songs on this list because I want them to sink in more. |
philbert08
06.15.20 | Not a fan of Ooh la la either, though I do respect the instrumentals.
Also, gotta have Lie, Cheat Steal in there. Makes you want throw some people. Guess that's the case with most their stuff |
