The I Love Music forum is currently conducting a poll of favourite Go-Betweens tracks and albums. Solo and side-projects too.

https://www.ilxor.com/ILX/ThreadSelected ControllerServlet?boardid=41&threadid=10 9038

Anyone with opinions is welcome to submit a ballot until the end of June. (Though people not already registered at ILX should create an account and say a few words, if only to demonstrate that I'm not fabricating additional votes. :-) )

Or simply check back in a couple of weeks and be delighted/appalled by our results and discussion!

Well, that’s how you voted. I’d disagree on a few of the best songs.

Streets of Your Town would be something like number 70 for me, Draining the Pool around number 50, I Just Get Caught Out number 100,

Good to see That Way at 13. I’’d put it higher but it’s often overlooked. Clouds is better than number 22, in my opinion.

I think I personally eschewed most of the same tracks you mention! And certainly helped to get "That Way" to that position. Whatever the collective result, such an exercise is principally a means of encouraging discussion really!
