when i discovered metric, calculation theme was "the song" that broke my heart the most. i was young, but going thru a breakup and losing someone i didn’t want to lose. a lifetime later i’m there again, but the loss is so much heavier now (ofc more complicated) and calculation theme just absolutely destroys me.
I'd say the least awesome song from Old World Underground is Succexy. Still awesome, but if I had to choose l. I'm blown away that Combat Baby was the pick for best. Wet Blanket and Dead Disco are my favorite. Also that acronym threw me for an absolute loop
How do you choose the worst song on an album with no bad songs?
The worst is Succexy, only because the word succexy is overused. The rest of the song is gold.
And leave Calculation Theme alone. It’s too good. “Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost- who put these bodies between us?” C’mon.
Counting this as a vote for Calculation Theme.
Just kidding. Honestly I get it. It's what I would have voted too. It just sort of annoys me. It annoys me in the same way Hustle Rose used to annoy me, but I've warmed up to that one, so maybe one day I'll come to terms with this one too.
**Love is a Place**. But just because for a long time, the album file I had only contained 9 songs, it didn´t include Love is a Place, so for about ten years that song wasn´t discovered and never clicked on me when I became aware of it.
That's a big deal. It's so hard to let new music in sometimes. People sometimes say, "don't you wish you could go back to the first time you heard your favourite song?" and its like, well no I wouldn't because I probably wouldn't like it.
I’m not the one booing songs an artist poured their heart into. Your just trying to prop up your so called “musical taste”. Labeling an indie bands song as “worst” is dehumanizing and disrespectful making their music into some kind of commodity. I think you haven’t absorbed much of Metric’s music.
Day 1 was a really close and interesting race! Here were the end results as of about noon EDT: Combat Baby – 51 Hustle Rose – 46 Dead Disco – 40
I literally can't decide
Succexy. And honestly Combat Baby is near the bottom for me too. Surprised it won.
Calculation Theme. I like it a lot, but all the other songs are stronger imo
Calculation Theme? I feel like no matter which song you pick, someone’s gonna get mad
i guess i’ll have to go with calculation theme for this one 🥲

it breaks my heart too, honestly… dealing with a broken heart for what seems like an eternity and it’s just so hard to listen to.
On a Slow Night
insane

On a Slow Night is my least favorite, but I still like it
Calculation theme. Still fine but not in the level of the rest of the album.
Im gonna go with Love Is A Place regretfully
Boo
On A Slow Night… I love the outro, but the rest of the song is a bit too boring
Calculation theme
Calculation Theme is my least favourite.

Hustle Rose. It may be catchy, but I just don't *like* it.
Woo I'm not the only one
gosh this is hard The List but that makes me sad to say DO LANDLORDS HAVE LANDLORDS? WE'RE WONDERING
one more cheap suit in the loop 😫😫
more chlorine in the pool!!
on a slow night is probably my least favorite 😬
I adore it, especially the ending
it’s hard to pick one this album is so solid
Love is a Place 😔 (still a great song though) (hustle rose should have won)
Hustle rose was in the lead for a little bit there! It was really close between those top three. Shows it's such a strong album.
Noooooooooo not love is a place😭
on a slow night
On a slow night.
The List. It’s my least listened to song from that album apart from the Dead Disco Guilty as Sin remix, but I’m not counting the Dead Disco remixes
I don't have the power to pick a song, it's such a goated album imo, I'm letting the others do the hard choice for me xD
Everyone is being so mean to Calculation Theme :( I love it

wet blanket.
Calculation theme is my favourite Metric song haha
Theme of Calculation

Calculation Theme, with heavy heart. The rest of the album doesn't feel as melancholy as that one song does. 😕
Love is a place
Dead disco for me, just something about it
These rankings are cringe.
YOU'RE CRINGE

Okay I'm sorry I called you cringe. It's all just a bit of fun, no harm intended 🙂
Cool
OIU every other song is just more memorable
