Bakers Dozen MUSIC Game

13 Great Albums That Start Off with a sub-par song:

1) U2 - “Achtung Baby” (starts with “Zoo Station”)
2) A Perfect Circle - Mer de Noms (starts with "The Hollow")
3) Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet - Let it Rock (I find it rather boring)
4) Stevie Wonder - Songs In the Key of Life (Love's in Need of Love Today)
5) Jamiroquai - Emergency On Planet Earth (When You Gonna Learn (Digeridoo) (I think it's just filler)
6) Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (I Am Trying to Break Your Heart)
7) AC/DC - Go Down (from "Let there be rock") Not that it's a terrible song, but compared with the rest of the album, it's weak.
8. R.E.M. - Fables Of The Reconstruction (Feeling Gravity's Pull) Just not up to snuff with rest of the album.
9. Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti - Custard Pie. Not a bad song, just not as great as some of the others on the rest of the album.

4. Type O Negative - Paranoid (by Black Sabbath). A monolith of a song, making the original unrecognizeable, and (arguably) eclipsing it.

9. Whip - White Wedding (originally by Billy Idol) - remakes the commercial glam-pop-rock original into a dark, minimalist, country song, something hauntingly reminiscent of “True Detective” (season one, of course).
