The Replacements: Bastards of Young
Big B posted "Swinging Party" about a year ago, and in the comments I alluded to this, my favorite song off of Tim. Now, almost a year later, I've gotten around to posting it. Touching on disappointment, income taxes, alienation, and sharecropping, this song has it all.

Yes it does. greatest Replacements song of all time? no, but still the best song for capturing suburban ennui circa 1984. Number 2? "Subdivisions" by Rush
"God, what a mess, on the ladder of success
Where you take one step and miss the whole first rung"
There's a new Art Brut track about The Replacements. Tight song.
Subdivisions is possibly my favorite Rush song.
"Any escape might help to soothe the unattractive truth that the suburbs have no charms to soothe the restless dreams of youth."
Good call.
...to me, best replacements song... mmhhh... answering machine
no no, wait... unsatisfied is the best song!
