The purpose of this exercise is just to rank it after first listen for fun to see who immediately likes what, i expect most people’s lists will be vastly different in a week.

Well in that case my immediate first love was Terrified (seriously, that song not only made me go "OMG", but also put a shiteating grin on my face as I jammed to it) and lowest rank was Childhoods (as cool as it is, I still needed to wrap my head around that one, cool for a closer though). However at this point I am growing in appreciation for Childhoods, still need to listen to this album (and individual songs) some more. Everything else was just in-between.

I do want to add that I also played Anthem Part 3 twice before listening to the album once through (AP3 was also an early highlight with how it went towards the end).

[Knapppers]

1. Terrified

2. Blink Wave

3. Dance with me

4. Turpentine

5. More than you know

6. Bad news

7. Other side

8. Anthem PT 3

9. Childhood

10. You don't know what you've got

11. When we were young 

12. Hurt

13. One more time 

14. Fuck face

15. Turn this off

16. Fell In Love

17. Edging 

 

The two joke/short songs and hurt are kinda interchangeable for me. They're basically all just filler. 

[Sdlythe87]

1. Turpentine

2. Bad News

3. Blink wave

4. Terrified

5. Anthem pt.3

6. More than you know

7. When we were young

8. Fuck Face

9. You don’t know what you’ve got

10. One more time

11. Otherside

12. Dance with me

13. Turn this off

14. Fell in love

15. Edging

16. Hurt (interlude)

17. Childhood

 

I think Edging would have been higher, if we hadn’t already had the song for a year already.

id have rated Childhood higher too, but I saw an interview with Travis where he mentioned it’s one of his favourite blink songs ever, so that really built it up for me, and it turned out to be a very plain song for me. The only one I’m not keen of on the album.

the hurt interlude could have been on any AvA album from LOVE pt.1 onwards, which isn’t a bad thing, I adore AvA, but we’ve heard it all before ya know?.

I’ve tried to do this a few times and it’s honestly impossible for me to rank. I love most the songs equally tbh

Same. I even tried doing tiers in my head but then I pretty much just ended up with every song besides like 2 in tier 1 lol.

[asdf182]

I wasn't on the best of spirits when i gave the album my first listen (that + barely any sleep due to work) but i feel like i can give a better and more fair rating now that i've listened to it back to back over the week

 

1. Blink Wave 10/10

2. Terrified 9/10

3. More Than You Know 9/10

4. One More Time 9/10

5. Turpentine 8.5/10 (could've been a 9, a 10 even but the silliness ruins it for me)

6. Cut Me Off 8/10

7. See You 8/10

8. Anthem Part 3 7.5/10

9. Bad News 7/10 

10. Dance With Me 7/10

11. Other Side 7/10

12 Childhood 7/10

13. YDKWYG 6.5/10

14. Edging 6/10 [Fun, catchy, there's nothing else to it]

15. When We Were Young 6/10 [Great instrumental, dogshit subject]

16 - Hurt  5/10

17 - Fell In Love 5/10 [Could've been a 7 but the nanas and that garbage intro ruin it]

18 - Turn This off / Fuck Face. Dogshit/10  [I actually like Trav's singing voice, give him a solo serious track next time]

Bro's serious.

[blinkAVARacer]

thought it would be interesting to see how much i've listened to each song from the album since it came out, so i downloaded a music stats app

1. BLINK WAVE - 21 plays

2. TERRIFIED - 18

3. WHEN WE WERE YOUNG - 18

4. FELL IN LOVE - 18

5. HURT - 17

6. TURPENTINE - 16

7. BAD NEWS - 15

8. CHILDHOOD - 14

9. DANCE WITH ME - 13

10. FUCK FACE - 11

11. OTHER SIDE - 7

12. ONE MORE TIME - 4

13. MORE THAN YOU KNOW - 4

14. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'VE GOT - 3

15. ANTHEM PART 3 - 3

16. EDGING - 1

17. TURN THIS OFF - 1

doesn't exactly align with how i would rank them, but its close
