Rank the songs on Lovesexy

All this Lovesexy 25th anniversary talk has me listening to that album a lot. It's freakin brilliant! Not to clutter the board with threads ... but I really wonder which songs on there are people's favorites.

So how would you rank them with #1 being the best? Here's my list:

1. Lovesexy
2. Positivity
3. Anna Stesia
4. Eye No
5. Alphabet St.
6. Dance On
7. I Wish U Heaven
8. When 2 R in Love
9. Glam Slam

Those top 5 songs especially are all fantastic.

Dance On

Pretty amazing stuff throughout. "Dance On" is pretty much the only track that I don't really care for that much (the chorus is a bit weak, although I admit the rest is pretty interesting).

That's the thing about this album. The individual songs may not be all that special, but as a whole...they become better than the sum of their parts. So I guess good old P was right after all in releasing the CD as 1 track. It's not a collection of songs. It's a trip.

Not really sure how i'd rank them, all I know is that Anna Stesia is the best track by far, IMO obviously.

I like all the individual tracks but I also agree that the album is better than the sum of the individual parts.

Not quite sure about Alphabet St./Glam Slam--could go the other way around.

"Anna Stesia" is clearly at the top, however. I had the album on cassette, and my player had some feature that would fast forward/rewind until there was a gap in the music--in most cases I guess it would be like skipping a track on a CD or dropping the needle between the tracks on an LP, though with Lovesexy it obviously didn't work very well, since it mostly segues together. I often just put the cassette in and hit the button, though, because it would go right to "Anna Stesia." Well, it actually went to right before that little instrumental "string" thing at the end of "Glam Slam," so that's kind of part of "Anna Stesia" for me. I'd play it over and over.
