How could anyone want to take any song off VU&N? Venus in Furs is my favorite, but I'll be Your Mirror is right up there. I feel Run, Run, Run is the least awesome on there but it's essential for the first second of that solo. I would be tempted to say There She Goes Again because it seems the most traditional, but its so damn good.

And who doesn't love She Said, She Said? What? I would have said Doctor Robert from Revolver until about a week ago when it clicked nicely.

To be fair, I was listening to my (excellently) remastered vinyl copy though an audio rig i just got, and the sound was miles ahead of what I'd had before. Song really came to life, though it's still the weakest link.

Revolution 9 - The Beatles White Album and Heyfoxymophandlemama, That's Me- Pearl Jam Vitalogy. They are really not music to me.

Mother - Synchronicity. I skip this song almost every time I listen to this album. I love Andy Summers but this is The Police's worst song.

This is the best track on the album. It gives me chills. Calling it "not music" is absolutely preposterous.

But can you dance to it? Wink

It's a sound collage; a bunch of random recordings and tape loops. I appreciate it for being avant-garde art, but more often than not I find myself skipping this whenever I listen to The White Album.

All of your points are true, but I feel like the whole point of The White Album is to be this kind of eclectic clusterfuck, so removing Revolution 9 is detrimental to the album's objective.

Princess of China from Mylo Xyloto
Silver from Doolittle
Wild Honey Pie from The White Album
New York Telephone Conversation from Transformer

There's probably something on Lamb Lies Down on Broadway...
Same thing with The Doors, probably that Alabama Whiskey Bar song...
