Oh, forgot this was still here.
When's Wii-Hee leaving?

Signs of Life is not purely a sex song though...plus the intro and outro are quirky enough. Put Your Money on Me is just too repetitive, both in lyrics and melody. Disappointed this beat out Signs of Life by one point.

34. Put Your Money on Me - one of the better ones off of EN. 33. Haiti - worst song I've heard off of Funeral. 32. Here Comes the Night Time - my highest loss yet. The piano on this is great, used to listen to it a lot during late night studying. 31. Black Wave/Bad Vibrations - this one was alright, honestly don't remember too much about it. 30. Creature Comfort - overboard 80's. The instrumental is good but good god Regine's vocals are bad on this.

35. Signs of Life (25): Another song I had already downloaded. Love the beat and disco-ish vibe, so I gave some extra points :) I've been trying to figure out for a few days which 80s song the "do it again" reminds me of. Hope I can get it by the end of the RD! 34. Put Your Money On Me (29): Good enough, but bit too middle of the road to me 33. Haiti (35): Really like the instrumentation, but it ended up sounding too monotonous for me to rank it higher 32. Here Comes the Nightlife (21): Another first-listen and strong earworm. Really like the Latin-ized beat :) and the layered vocals, so I did give it some extra points 31. Black Wave / Bad Vibrations (34): Similar to Haiti... 30. Creature Comfort (14): This is another song I had downloaded earlier this year as one of my early favorites from EN (alongside SoL and EN). In this case, I appreciate Regine's vocals as good complement; plus the song is catchy and instrumentation is A+, and this time I did pay attention to the lyrics --strong! This one and Rococo are so far my biggest disappointments.

I'll have to check out some of their older music sooner or later.
damn! "Creature Comfort" out already?
I have to say that I believe this song divides the crowd because of her vocals. There are those who love it; precisely because of her, mirror shattering vocals, Like me ,and those who will get tuned out quickly. I would have probably put this one in my top 5 for the New Wave throwback style alone.

I hope this is "Wii-Hee!", but I'd be surprised if there's only one top 10.

This piece of trash overstayed its welcome. Can't believe you people allowed three Neon Bible tracks to go before this one.

Don't dislike it by any means (it reached the top 20 on my personal chart) but it does seem to pale in comparison to their others.
