Permanent Waves is great, but none of the songs individually do much for me. I take PeW whole, never in part. I really couldn't rank any one of the songs in a top five for either decade. I just couldn't (too many other favourites).

 

But as an album, for the seventies it would come second, and if it were the eighties, fourth (after MP GUP, and HYF).

If I was grouping PeW in with the 80s my list would be:

 

Natural Science

Limelight

Freewill

Red Barchetta

Subdivisions

 

Edit: On second thought Red Barchetta stays over some of the others.

I guess the work of the Permanent Waves Classification Committee is not quite finished with its long, thankless efforts . . . Where is the Permanent Waves Ambassador?
