    I like it, but not enough to be in this list :). Dear Catastrophe Waitress is my least favorite B&S album (I like some songs, but some of hte worst of this band is in this album, like If She Wants Me).

    I agree Tiripseerf. If She Wants Me is the worst B&S song!

    But "Dear catastrophe waitress" has stay loose on it and stay loose rules.

    Pretentious to pick the worst B&S song.

    Why? We all have songs we love and songs we hate.

    Huh? If She Wants Me is one of the best songs on Dear Catastrophe Waitress; you guys are just objectively wrong. It could stand to be about a minute shorter, but it's still catchy and delightful. What more could you ask for?

    Oh, and how can any number of minutes of B&S be perfect without Sleep the Clock Around?

    If she wants me is just TOO sweet for my taste. So is Jonathan David, but that one I don't hate. It's been over a year but I can't believe I missed Sleep the Clock Around.

    I know this is almost a year old, but I love this list! I would've made a couple different choices (White Collar Boy, Stay Loose, Funny Little Frog, Electronic Renaissance, Sleep the Clock Around, Seeing Other People), but I really didn't like the early 2000s albums, so that's just me. Heh. (The Boy with the Arab Strap is growing on me, but it's taken a long time.) Kudos for Le Pastie, though! It doesn't get nearly enough respect.

    Yes! Seeing Other People should have been here.
