I can honnestly say I only really dislike ONE Therapy? song! Obviously I have songs I prefer to others so thats why I can’t pick two off each album.

Oh and the song that I really do hate and it makes me cringe when I hear it is:Body Bag Girl, what an awful bloody song, but I will let you off Andy, just this time though.

High Anxiety _(2003)
1 My vodoo doll - perhaps Therapy?s worst song (especially lyrically)?
2.Hey Satan - You Rock - again shitty lyrics

Shameless _(2001)
1. Body Bag Girl - utterly crap
2. Wicked Man - just don’t like it

So Much For The Ten Year Plan _(2000)
1. Die Laughing - should have used trigger inside instead
2. Straight Life - one of SD’s worst tracks (in my mind anyway!)

Suicide Pact-You First _(1999)
1. God Kicks - again, duff lyrics
2. Hate Kill Destroy - my second least favourite of SPYF (I quite like it but had to pick a second)

Semi-Detached _(1998)
1. Don’t expect roses - what were they thinking?
2. Lonely, Cryin’, Only - so poppy it makes me sick

Infernal Love _(1995)
1. 30 seconds - it’s ok but not great
2. Misery - again, not ground breaking

Troublegum _(1994)
1. Die Laughing - ok, but weakest track on album
2. Stop it your’e killing me - have heard it too many times
Nurse _(1992)

1. Hypermania - only fyfe’s druming saved this one (have you tried to drum along?)
2. Accelerator - not my cup of tea

Pleasure Death _(1992)
1. DLC - their worst instrumental track
2. Potato Junkie - just because it sounds so much better live - the recording is a bit week or something

Babyteeth _(1991)
1. Loser Cop
2. Skyward - I love this album and these tracks, but still had to choose two

Wildcard
1. the hidden track on HA - don’t know what it’s called, dont care.

Pretty hard to do isn’t it? Although as I once heard Therapy? described - “Yeah, they’re a really good band, but they have written some turkeys!” Pretty accurate statment I thought.

yes - pure and utter shite, only superceeded by the disgrace that is my vodoo doll. if they play this on friday night to the cost of a decent tune (eg animal bones) i will shit in my pants - and not in a good way either (if there is one).

one of the things i like seeing here is the vast difference in the songs people really like by this band. everyone likes ‘em for something different, it seems.

as for those two, Skyward is a weak track IMO, and i picked Dancin’ with Manson because it was somehow less perfect than the others. those two albums (Babyteeth/Pleasure Death) were the absolute hardest to choose “clunkers” from.

That’s actually a really tricky thing to do…
For me, the vast majority of these choices have been been based on “Well, which tracks to a love least?” as opposed to “Which do I hate most?”
Which can only be a good thing, methinks :)

There are more songs of which the lyrics in the early version are different. The lyrics in the early version of Misery (on the Not Lunacy bootleg I believe) were way different, same for Me vs You, Tightrope Walker, Don’t Expect Roses, Church of Noise, etc. So it’s not that special.

*shrugs* I dunno… after however many years of hearing it, it’s not aged as well as most Therapy? tracks in my opinion. For instance, I can imagine tracks like Innocent X still exciting me, ten years from now, but I usually skip Turn these days. It’s wore out it’s welcome, or something.

Plus, it never really felt “at home” on Troublegum, if you ask me.

I don’t understand HOW THE FUCKING HELL YOU CAN HATE HEY SATAN - YOU ROCK. It’s the best Therapy? song I’ve ever heard. It’s got the best lyrics EVER, I like how it’s a form of rebellion against christianity. I also like how they talk about satan rocking and being drunk the rest of your life. Good lyrics and even better, the best music EVER. The melody just flows so beautifully, I remember hearing this track continusly never stopping and I’m listening to it right now. Venom on the jukebox!

I also cringed when I saw that you hated: Accelerator (it has a good speedy riff and especially in that melody change in the middle, it’s fantastic), Wicked Man (it’s just so beautifully slow and ahh well lovely), God Kicks (A two minute beauitful and relaxing song), He’s Not That Kind Of Girl (I thought that you gotta be kidding when I read that, it’s the only masterpiece from Suicide Pact!).

OK, I’ll stop now ;).
