int8 Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 I think it's time to change the rules. What about that - each person posts their own personal ranking of the songs from 'Miami' and I'm gonna sum up it somehow. It'll be quicker and easier.

Darkenchantress Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Oh fuck, I didn't have the time to vote, sorry!!! I'm not sure if I could do a ranking of the whole album myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoot Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) Sorry guys, I'm the least familiar with Miami so that's why I'm sitting this one out. I own it but for whatever reason it wont play. It always tells me it's not available in my country. The only songs I really know well are Everythings Alright & Bombs Away. I'll be back in here once we get to the next album.

Tori72 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 I'm sorry too. Also not familiar with Miami that much and somehow I cant get into the songs. I like Everythings Alright and Phone (like the lyrics somehow). The rest stays somewhat distant to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tori72 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 So, I made up my mind. My favourite songs from Miami. Waiting Tijuana Everythings Alright Buildings In The Sky Partly Cloudy Tough Check Bombs Away Phone Let Go JR's Song FSO Ragga TJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archtop Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 OK made myself sit down and go through this album and as I said before it not an album that hits me, and I don't even find it a grower. I don't think there are any stand out songs, in fact many of them sort of merge in to each other. I can only put that down to the guitars, they sound the same on a lot of the tracks. So I came up with this ranking from best to worse: Let go Tijuana Everything Alright Waiting Buildings in the sky Bombs away *Junior Partly Cloudy FSO Ragga Pick up the phone Tough Check *Still don't kow if I hate or like it but it ranks in the middle because at least it's different. It does sound like they had a laugh doing this album, but I think It sounds like a jam session to me, I know harsh, and I feel bad but love can be tough sometimes ?

Archtop Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I thought I would bump this as its a shame to see it drop off the page, anybody else want to rank Miami? Looks like "waiting" is currently in the lead. I'm going to listen to fire, it's one of my favourite Izzy albums. Hopefully post a ranking on here over the next couple of days. Track listing All lyrics and music by Izzy Stradlin, except where noted. "I Don't Mind" - 3:39 "Infrastruk" - 3:24 "Listen" - 3:17 "Airbus" - 3:29 "Fire" - 3:47 "Seems to Me" (Stradlin, Timo Kaltio) - 3:30 "Long Night" - 3:15 "Box" (Stradlin, Kaltio) - 4:20 "Milo" - 3:30 "Harp Song" - 3:03 Wikipedia says this, The album was recorded in California during the Summer of 2007, with very basic production. The album was mixed in Dallas at Nomad Studios, and mastered by Gary Long. Izzy Stradlin co-wrote two songs ("Box and "Seems to Me") with UK-based musician Timo Kaltio. Izzy first informed Will Vilers (his website administrator) about the album on November 5, 2007, with an e-mail simply titled "Fire, the Acoustic Album." The album's full track listing was later revealed on Izzy's website, directly in conjunction with the album's release on iTunes.
