The first National tune I latched onto was "Looking for Astronauts," probably cause it's hooky. It quickly slipped down the list of my favs on that record.

Hmmm, I'd still put "Astronauts" in my top 5-6 on Alligator tbh, some of my favorite lyrics are on that tune.

I doubt I could pick a favorite. Just too much goodness everywhere.

My friend and I always considered Astronauts to be a weak point of Alligator. The chorus sounds awkward and kind of off idk. Still a good song overall tho

I can't believe you spoke badly about Racing Like a Pro Boney! The combo with Ada is incredible

There really isn't a single song from their big 4 albums that I don't like. I even finally warmed to Squalor Victoria after a several years.

I thought he was talking about Racing Like a Pro but I now see he could as well have been referring to Squalor. Maybe he needs to clear that up haha. Either way, there's nothing as "worst song" on Boxer

Racing Like A Pro is so stunning, blows my mind someone could dislike it, especially a fan of the band

It was my least favourite for a time as well, then I saw the light.

Ada is clearly the weakest link on Boxer. It's only like a 4.5/5 song.

Nah Ada is a 5/5. Racing is a 4/5, only sub-4.5 song on Boxer. But whatever that album's perfect anyways, easy top 10 of all time.

Racing is easily one of the top 12 of that album

I LOVE Ada tho, in my top 15 in general for Ntl probably

Yeah Ada is perf

"Slow Show" is obv king on Boxer and the best Natty tune ever and a top 5 song for me generally. But most songs on Boxer are 5/5 so it's all good

City Middle or This Is The Last Time still reigns supreme for me, but I'd comfortably slot Slow Show as 3rd behind those 2
