The song is sensational 😁 And to think the song is a demo too!
But to vaguely answer the original post. Morn The A Feeling and Rock N Roll Band are the only two songs I listen to from Boston. For most people it would probably be the one song. Me and you know the case would be a lot different for artists of the other songs listed. 😉

You're not talking about "More Than A Feeling", right ? Cause it's awful.

Yes I am talking about that. I don't hate "More than a feeling", but I can think of 100 songs that I would rate better than that, such as "Hey Jude" or especially "Paint it black", "Good Vibrations" or "Paperback Writer" which I would rate in the all time top 25.

As an experiment, I voted for Pink Floyd's "Us & Them" and it jumped from 10th to 8th. That list is far from stable. I usually don't vote for tracks. Maybe we should all start. We can obliterate "More Than A Feeling" if we vote vote VOTE !!

I think that I realized why those songs are not on BEA's best track chart...most of them are only on greatest hits albums and I think that people are not going to those albums when they rate tracks...or are not on albums that are currently on BEAs album library....

I was thinking in terms of attracting people to this website...because no one votes for tracks. especially if they are only available on compilations, our best tracks chart looks pretty strange...if I was a potential new member, I would think twice about joining a music website which didn't contain some of the best songs on its "best song' chart.
