01.05.21 | been wanting to make this forever but didnt realize how hard this was gonna be to do until i started bc not only are all these songs 5/5 tracks but so are many more that aren't here. honorable mentions are literally everything on the last 4 albums that isn't here, plus california, coffee, when paula sparks, brightest, hold nothing back, choose the one who loves you more, and kite |

01.05.21 | clicked on this to say "where the FUCK is last time he saw dorie" but you have it in the correct position. nice
would chuck in california and should you return personally |

01.05.21 | This would be a triiiiicky ranking. Besides 1 being 1 and probs 2 being 2 everything could be up in the air. I think I’d put Lavender higher, Should You Return would def be on there, and probably Pope? Just more from Blushing honestly but maybe not Waltz on Water for me
Now I gotta listen go listen to Copeland |

01.05.21 | @row considered should you return harder than any other song that didnt make this actually that song is tremendous. sunshine is generally one of my hardest 5s tho so i tried to not flood the list w it but i will probably regret not putting it here when i next listen to it. california rules too that buildup is incredible
last time he saw dorie is one of the most breathtaking songs ive ever heard, especially when all the strings all come in at the end. should be towards the top of every copeland list |

01.05.21 | Still have not heard any of their stuff before Ixora and Blushing. Ixora was great but Blushing is an instant classic. Really poignant and romantic album with interwoven existentialism. |
onionbubs
01.05.21 | blushing is phenomenal but its denser than the other material in such a way where its kinda harder to pinpoint its highlights. very consistent and amazing listen but makes it harder for me to pick from for a list like this |

01.05.21 | the strings coming in on Dorie is the best moment in their discog, very possibly one of my favourite music moments ever
In Motion gets left off lists like this a lot and I get why but Love is a Fast Song and Choose the One are fantastic tunes |
onionbubs
01.05.21 | i dig in motion fair bit (actually listening to it and on fast song is rn), in spite of it being clearly the worst album in their discog. choose the one is 2nd to sleep off that for me that song's stunning, w fast song not far behind. the winds in the bridge of choose the one are especially so gorgeous and tasteful. really enjoy the closer of that album too |
butt.
01.05.21 | 10 is soo gooood ugh. but also where is Pope?!?! |
Sowing
01.05.21 | Colorless, Strange Flower, and Pope are my top 3 (again, only ever heard Blushing and Ixora). Also, props for including Waltz on Water. Such an underrated track and the lyrics are heartbreaking. |
butt.
01.05.21 | yeah the bass line on that track is sick |
Winesburgohio
01.05.21 | California is one of the most moving songs evz tho |

01.05.21 | Your 1 is my 1. Hug me bubs. |

01.05.21 | *hugs dewi through phone*
1 was the song that made this whole bands discog click for me and still makes me feel things few other songs can capture |
TheSupernatural
01.05.21 | I really dig Love is a Fast Song, but my heart is with most of Ixora. Listened to it on repeat in college |
onionbubs
01.05.21 | ixora is such a beautiful album and the version where both it and twin are synced up is damn close to a 5. only one of those songs i dont think benefits from it is ordinary bc its such a phenomenal moment of vulnerability as is which is kind of lost when drums are added to it |
Snake.
01.06.21 | i've only listened to blushing
is the rest of their discog just as pristine and heartbreaking? |
onionbubs
01.06.21 | nothing is as detailed and texturally rich as blushing but yea definitely get on the 3 albums before it |
alamo
01.07.21 | ctrl+f ordinary |
Snake.
03.09.21 | ok so i just binged their whole discog and i find it a literal crime that ordinary isn't even an honorable mention on here |
onionbubs
03.09.21 | bc ive been jamming the synced up twin version for too long and realized after posting this list its the only song where i dig the og album version more by a considerable margin. remix adds drums and more full band instrumentation which is cool but that track def works best as a minimal ballad, and yea, probably shoulda been here |
