So this one is tricky. There really isn’t anything overrated in this album. It’s not generally held in high regard. The gems are appropriately acknowledged and not overly so.

I suppose only Gloria could be considered - I mean, am I going to say Tomorrow or October are overhyped? Gloria isn’t overhyped either.

I may have to abstain.

Feels very BDSM to me.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

I couldn’t choose, either. Putting aside the impossibility of commenting on what 8 billion human souls on planet earth think is overrated or, indeed, underrated, there is something in the magic of that LP that makes it impossible to fault, in my view. Unlike, for example, the outlier, pride, on TUF or the clumsy IWF, on Boy.

Remember the forum rules, Martin, discuss the TOPIC, NOT the MEMBER, which is what song on October is overrated.

Yeah.

Gloria is awesome. Tomorrow and October are excellent. I suppose maybe Fire could be overrated because the band thought it should be a single? But not many fans consider it a great song; I do like it but it's also probably my least favorite on the album. I'll skip this poll, but I'm curious to see what the results will be.

I assume U2 had a similar conversation about pride.

Nah. Wouldn’t change a thing.

To my knowledge, and I could be wrong mind you, only one remix exists from October:

Tomorrow (Common Ground Remix) - 4m36

I have it. It’s on the deluxe remastered edition from 2008.
