Hey... I'd don't know if this poll has been done before, but I'd like to see folks' favourite track from aeroplane...

My favourite is number 10 (the untitled one)... I don't know why it just has a certain... almost irish feel about it ;-) And I love the pause in the middle where it seems like the song is about to finish... and it comes back with even more awesomeness ;-)

Mine was "Holland, 1945" for the longest time, but now i've been listning to "2-Headed Boy part 2" nonstop.

Aeroplane and 2HB Part Two. Oh Comely and Carrot Flowers Part One are close.

The Fool!

I'm suprised that Carrot Flowers 1 has no votes.

this is too hard. but I think that I couldn't ever deliberate between the two Two Headed Boy songs.

I just feel Oh Comely is 9 minutes of sex with Jeff's mind, so I suppose that has my vote.

it just feels like the most complete song. but Ghost is close too.

My favourite is "King of the carrot flowers pt. 1" just beacause it's the first song, so it's kind of prelude to the rest of the awesome album.

I love them all, but I think In The Aeoplane Over the Sea is my favourite.

That's really hard. I don't think I've even listened to any one song in ages. I nearly always listen to the whole album now.

But I'll go with Holland, 1945

It was a toss up between "King of Carrot Flowers pt. 1" and "Two Headed Boy pt. 2" just because I hold really strong emotional memories for both songs. Honestly, this is like arguing about what Beatles' album is best- they're all so great that it doesn't really matter.

I'm a 'Ghost' kind of gal. That's my favorite song to sing at work, because I'm a fag who loves closing the door to my office and having imgainary sex with Jeff while I balance the company Foundation account.

Fun, fun. Ghost, ghost.

Ghost is probably my least favorite song on the album. It's far from tuneless (because I like tuneless), but it's just not that great of a song.

Track 10 - "Untitled" is my favorite track.

As much as I love the whole album, this track resonates on so many levels. The plaintive strumming, the acoustic simplicity meshed with voice, the vocals reaching for outer heights and the plea, "pain" and passion in his delivery.

Chilly sadness.

I love the signs of resignation, regret, "anger" and depth. And the final "coda" of placing the guitar down and walking away is brilliant. The song feels live and alive -- Jeff leaving his post.

it was holland 1945 for a long time, but oh comely is the one that really kills me every time i hear it

The album as a whole is so appealing, I can't do without any of the tracks, they are all so important... but Oh Comely and Ghost are the ones that just totally shake my soul to the point where I don't even feel like I'm on earth anymore. The album just has such an amazing closing to it.

I was pretty torn when I voted for Track 10...

It was pretty close between Holland, 1945, King of the Carrot Flowers part 3, Oh Comely and Ghost...

I think we should kill the 3 people who voted for communist daughter.

there isn't anyone denying that, just considering the other tracks surrounding it, I was surprised it got votes.
