I love Johnny's Gonna Die and I'm so happy to see it on this list. It's such an underrated song. The lyrics, the story behind it, Tommy's bass - it's fantastic.

I can't argue with any of the songs here, but I myself would probably put All Shook Down on my own list (I know it's basically Paul solo, but I still love it). Could not tell you what I'd take out so I could put that one in though...

No such thing as a bad list of Replacements songs, but I would out IOU in the top 5-10.

As I've gotten older I've gravitated towards a lot of the messier stuff... Kids Don't Follow, Love You Til Friday, Treatment Bound.

This is a great idea/series! Love that Within Your Reach and Unsatisfied are on here; those are two that people usually overlook.

If I was making the list, We’ll Inherit The Earth, Little Mascara, and Valentine would be on here. Maybe “lWhen it Began as well.

If mine was a ranked list, Talent Show would be close to the top. It’s an all timer, IMO.
