Match-up #7 - The Luxury Vs. The Dark Canuck
Listen to the two songs in the match-up Back to Back, and consider the lyrics of the song. Feel free to post an unbiased analysis of both songs in this thread, but please refrain from cheerleading or making predictions for your favourites.
Thanks for positing it Sean!
I don't know if I can vote on this one. Both songs are great for completely different reasons. This one may take some time.
Easy one for me. I'm a huge IVL fan!
The Dark Canuck is a modern classic, and is one of the hilights of IVL, and is a perfect album closer.
I know I'm supposed to refrain from cheerleading... but
Everyone, hands up!
Who's for The Dark Canuck?
I always thought that The Dark Canuck was a song that wanted to be something, but never actually achieved much. I kinda think the reason most people like it is because of the length.
I have to go with The Luxury here, mostly because of its great jazzy/blues feel.
Had to go with The Luxury. That swaying bass line is just too awesome
Had to go with Dark Canuck.
IVL is an album that has really grown on me over time.
I guess you know what song I voted for...I am definitely for the Dark Canuck...I named my kids Apple, Zippo and Metronome :lol:

I wish I could say the same. I still can't stand, Use It Up, Are You Ready and Silver Jet.
I love the change in tempo on "The Dark Canuck" it is such a great song, but I had to go with "The Luxury".

Thats funny, I really dig those songs! However, it's nice to meet fans who can be honest about what tunes they can't stand!!
Welcome to the board Travelin man... you will find that Are You Ready, Silver Jet and Vaccination Scar really don't get much love from the group at all, and I really like them all

I'm not a huge fan of Are You Ready (reminds me too much of the Elton John song) but I love the other two!
