| The '59 Sound Ranked
Seeing this album played live the other night has solidified it as my favorite album ever. Impossible to rank obviously, but here you go. Every song is 5/5 or better except for #12. | | 1 | The Gaslight Anthem
Great Expectations
Just the greatest opener imaginable | | 2 | High Lonesome
The most perfect mix of everything this album has: soulful rock and roll, punk energy, Americana imagery, poignancy and nostalgia | | 3 | The '59 Sound
Will go down as the band's most enduring song | | 4 | Casanova, Baby!
I find this chorus getting stuck in my head more than any other | | 5 | Old White Lincoln
Always loved the vocal delivery best on this song, for some reason | | 6 | Film Noir
Most unique song on the album | | 7 | The Patient Ferris Wheel
Bit of a cut rate High Lonesome, nonetheless brilliant | | 8 | Here's Looking At You, Kid
Still the best ballad in the band's catalog | | 9 | Meet Me By the River's Edge
Endlessly catchy | | 10 | The Backseat
I feel bad putting this and Miles Davis so low, but just goes to show how great this album is | | 11 | Miles Davis & The Cool
A fan favorite, I'm just not into it as much as others I guess | | 12 | Even Cowgirls Get the Blues
Only song here that doesn't get full marks, but still a hell of a song | |

06.01.18 | 12 is right and 1-3 are pretty godly but 10 is totally top 3 | AngryJohnny
06.01.18 | Yeah Backseat and Here's Lookin at You gotta be higher.
The one song here I never really loved was Patient Ferris Wheel.
I'd go: Great Expectations > 59 Sound > Here's Looking at You, Kid > Backseat > Casanova > High Lonesome > Miles Davis > Meet me by the River's Edge > Film Noir > Even Cowgirls Get the Blues > Old White Lincoln > Patient Ferris Wheel | pypypymble

06.01.18 | One of the hardest 5s ever and a flawless album. | CugnoBrasso
06.01.18 | 12 is definitely not 12, other than that the album is great, can't really complain about any ranking. Casanova has the best "woooooh" in folk punk. | onionbubs
