It has that quality Gang Bang also has, you know, when you can picture some violent/agressive scenery and all. Both are very visual songs.

It's interesting how varied these lists are. I think one can appreciate the whole package of a single as a cultural concept (video, appearances, performances, remixes, artwork) and so we all get behind those, while with album tracks it is just the merits of the song itself, and occassionally a performance, that it stands on so individual tastes play a greater role.

What does being from the same album have anything to do with the ranking of favorite non-single/album tracks? :huh: If they're in a tie, it's because I was unable to pick a favorite among those specific ones.

And, I guess it's true about Drowned World/Substitute for Love. But, it wasn't a single here in the U.S., where I'm from. So, to ME, it's an album track. If we have to count it as a single, then there wouldn't be a tie for me on Gone and Paradise Not for Me.

But, I agree on the whole can't believing people love Spanish Eyes so much. :ohmy: I liked it when I was a kid, but it's too cheese-tastic to seriously like as an adult now. But, hey, to each his/her own, right?

You think so? I think there are songs that are way cheesier than Spanish Eyes. I think it's lovely but that's just my opinion. I think Borderline is cheesy and dreadful, but everyone seems to love it.

Yeah, I do think so. And, although I absolutely LOVE Borderline, I do have to admit that the PRODUCTION is cheesy and sounds very 80's - but, that adds to the charm, IMO, and the song's carried well by the fact that it, inherently, is a great song at its core.

I, also, think that one of the best indicators as to how good an M song is would be to play it for a non or casual fans. If the consensus from such a group is overwhelmingly negative, then it usually means said song is just not a good song - regardless of how many M loons may love it. I've done this with Spanish Eyes and absolutely everyone who I've played it for has practically gagged. LOL! Mind you, that's not why I don't like it, but it gives you a sense as to the quality of the song. Meanwhile, most people - even non/casual fans - seem to love Borderline. Many artists have covered Borderline, but my favorite is Rob Thomas' cover. It showcases how brilliant the song really is.

I agree. I feel like I'm starting a game of The Legend of Zelda when I listen to Borderline :)
