Gigantic = easily the most boring track. Think I'm going to go with I'm Amazed too.

River Euphrates, natch.

I almost went with Bone Machine, but chose Something Against You.

Gigantic is overrated.
by people who like it? statements like this make no sense.
How exactly does that not make sense? I think it's overpraised. It's a good track, but not the best on the album. Don't think I'm being vague.

I voted for Vamos after some thought. I like that it is so much longer than the rest of the album, for one thing, it wigs out a little.
I just remembered this time I was sitting outside the JB HiFi in Prahran (shhh Jim) and these two young guys, maybe 18 or so, came out holding some cds, one guy showing the other what he'd bought. The other guy asked "whos this?" and pointed at his copy of Surfer Rosa. "this is the Pixies man, they were a really influential 80s rock band! Theyre awesome apparently".
Other guy looks at cover of CD contemplatively and then says "hey man, she has her tits out on the cover. AWESOME!".

I'm Amazed... for sentimental reasons.

Gigantic AND River Euphrates are much better on the single. It has to be BONE MACHINE.

"Where Is My Mind?" 'Cause I often find myself asking that very question...these days.

I've always been simultaneously a little disappointed but also pretty glad they didn't do something like this for the Come On Pilgrim/Surfer Rosa combined CD cover.
