 If you could do a "Best Of" set...
Hello, Busters! First post, but I've been lurking for some time. I've been a Pillows fan for quite awhile now, but I've only recently looked into the fan-base. So many different opinions of the albums and songs! I've never known which albums are "popular" or whatever among the other Busters out there other than myself, so it's been very interesting to see what others think. I must say, I dunno if my opinions will be terribly popular around here. I really dig some albums and songs that seem to be looked on poorly. I'm also still a Pillows fan, which seems to be out of style as well ; )
Anyways, I've made my own personal 10-disc Pillows "Best Of" collection and I'm curious what other fans would think of it and how yours would look. I've done it chronologically (for the most part) and tried to make the best running order so that each comes together as a good album and not just a collection of songs. Here ya go:
Disc 1: 1990-1992 01. stand up and go 02. エネルギー (energy) 03. razorlike blue 04. 僕はかけら (I'm a broken piece) 05. NEVER FIND 06. kiss me, baby 07.

Disc 3: 1997-1998 01. going down 02. spiky goose 03. stalker 04. yellow beans 05. swanky street 06. Little Busters 07. Blues Drive monster 08. Nowhere 09. Black Sheep 10. One Life 11. Another Morning 12. Hybrid Rainbow 13. Little Busters (redux)
Disc 4: 1999 01. white ash 02. juliet 03. midnight down 04. Paper Triangle 05. instant music 06. sad sad kiddie 07. nightmare 08.

What do you think? I'm working on artwork for all of them and will probably put it up on demonoid soon. I'm sure I've left off your favorite song and probably have several that you could do without, so let's see what yours would look like.

Seriously, that's like 60% of their discography. And an extra CD full of almost nothing but FLCL versions seems like a waste...
edit: Also having most of Runner's High without Let's See if That's True or Not... we have a problem.

 Re: If you could do a "Best Of" set...
Well, I should have said "Box set" instead of "Best of". But it's not loo long. There are bands who weren't around as long as the Pillows have been and they have bigger sets. ...or maybe you just don't like that many Pillows songs?

Didn't they already do a box set of all their singles? I want that.

 Re: If you could do a "Best Of" set...
I'd much rather see a box set of all their releases, than a "Best of" collection.

[quote="ray_afraid"]Well, I should have said "Box set" [/quote] I interpret "box set" to be "the entire discog." You have selected MOST of the discog, except a good amount of certain tracks based on their perceived mediocrity. Nowhere near a best of! If you wanted to do a true best of for the pillows, it should be a double-album, like AMAP. This is just far too huge. In my opinion.

 Re: If you could do a "Best Of" set...
While I think it no way constitutes a best of, I agree that most of their discography would be considered the best....
