I knew Describe would be my number one the moment the chorus hit for the first time. But Nothing At All, Some Dream, Eye in the Wall, Take Me Home, Grid, Floating Spit, and Gay Angels are all up there.

Valley, Dark Parts, Otherside, Mr. Peterson, Alan, Jason, Moonbend, Queen.
All great picks. The harmonies on Moonbend are unreal, I didn’t fully appreciate it until recently because it’s so quiet and there’s so much space in it but (like every other song on that album) I love it now.
Must be Wreath, Describe, On the Floor, Pop Song
On the Floor has gotta be one of the catchiest songs I’ve ever heard
Hood, I saw the video on YouTube many moons ago, it was my gateway into his music, the vulnerability of it . But I couldn't pick another, where would you start? Too many to choose from.
Set My Heart on Fire Immediately is his masterpiece imo, you can’t go wrong listening to it straight through. But if you want a specific track and you’re drawn to his most vulnerable stuff, you will love Otherside.
I meant there are so many exquisite songs to choose from, I couldn't pin it down beyond the first track I heard/saw.
Ahh I see what you mean. I would agree, I thought of a bunch of others I love after making this post - it’s hard to pick!
Exactly! At this precise moment I'd say Dark parts is beyond sublime but then what about the fecking perfection that is the end of line of valley? Ask me in 5mins and I'll tell you all about slip away, or Mr Peterson. How ta feck could ye pick. He's just fecking fabulous altogether.
