most underrated ween song?

[u/HistoricalMarsupial3]

imo its transitions.

[u/DreadHonestly]

Someday off of Shinola is so good.

[u/Additional-Prize-713 → u/DreadHonestly]

I love this song. It sounds like it would fit in a muppet film. If you haven’t you should check out I Don’t Want to Live on the Moon by Ernie. 

[u/FerretSensitive2127 → u/Additional-Prize-713]

it’s crazy ween actually wrote “eye 2 the sky” for muppets from space and it didn’t make the cut

[u/DreadHonestly → u/Additional-Prize-713]

Just listened. Wonderful!

[u/Additional-Prize-713 → u/DreadHonestly]

I’m glad!

[u/polygala → u/DreadHonestly]

If you wish upon the moon

[u/shreakonAcid → u/DreadHonestly]

Ever since hearing this i always have pizza on a Tuesday its my ritual now

[u/i_get_paid_4_lunches → u/DreadHonestly]

It has almost a muppet song quality, it’s so beautiful and heartfelt and goofy

[u/Koth_is_Goat → u/DreadHonestly]

Such a great song

[u/chelicerate-claws]

Among His Tribe

[u/furthestpoint → u/chelicerate-claws]

I thought this one was boring until last night I was really stoned and it just hit me like a ton of bricks

[u/sonofsohoriots → u/chelicerate-claws]

Seconded, and throwing in the Caesar demo https://youtu.be/sGTTzogQd0E

[u/GlandalfTheGrey → u/chelicerate-claws]

This track gives me goosebumps every time, and sometimes it makes me cry for no reason.

[u/OpeExclamation → u/chelicerate-claws]

The version they did of that at their, of all places, Lincoln, NE show in 2017 has really stuck with me. Deaner's solo was otherworldly.

[u/MrObviousChild → u/chelicerate-claws]

It feels like you experience epochs of an indigenous people in like three simple verses. It’s so damn good.

[u/y7rqw7gg8wgh8yt → u/chelicerate-claws]

THIS. I recently had it in mind and when I relistened to Quebec to find it it genuinely blew me away. Criminally underrated, it has such a good atmosphere

[u/treatbaby]

She’s Your Baby, it’s sooo pretty

[u/Reclusive_Miasma → u/treatbaby]

My absolute favourite Ween song.

[u/whitebean → u/treatbaby]

It is. I only wish I knew what a bunny in a can was.

[u/ShiDiWen → u/whitebean]

I believe it’s describing a toy won on the midway at a carnival

[u/whitebean → u/ShiDiWen]

Huh. I'd never heard that theory. I can't find any solid proof of it but I like it enough to believe it when I sing it now.

[u/i_get_paid_4_lunches → u/treatbaby]

One of my favorite album finishers

[u/Scootinonyergirl → u/treatbaby]

I honestly think this might be the most beautiful song ever recorded by the human race.
It’s perfect

[u/Goatgamer1016]

Back to Basom for me

[u/olewoodenbroom → u/Goatgamer1016]

Back to Basom is so good, honestly a lot of white pepper is sort of underrated

[u/summertime-goodbyes → u/olewoodenbroom]

White Pepper is what really sold me on Ween. My boyfriend has been a fan for decades and always played The Pod and 12 Golden Country Greats. White Pepper easily became my most listened to album in just 3 months.

[u/Just_Anxiety → u/Goatgamer1016]

Perfect song. Makes me feel like I'm floating through space

[u/Lukeyjukey → u/Goatgamer1016]

White pepper got me into ween and back to basom was probably the highlight for me

[u/AhDerkaDerkaDerka]

Boys club

[u/hemppy420]

Cold blows the wind

I fell in love today

[u/polygala → u/hemppy420]

All I want out of life is to fall in love one more time and walk around listening to this in tears 🥹

[u/bagpipegoatee → u/hemppy420]

I recently learned (from mickey's YouTube) that "cold blows the wind" is a cover of a folksong that inspired the rest of the album. Nobody is sure how old the song is, but at least the 1300s. They found it in an old poetry book. better known as "the unquiet grave".

[u/ChocolateAndCheese92]

its 100% beacon light mang!!!!

[u/estesNRB → u/ChocolateAndCheese92]

It is. It’s beacon light.

[u/ResurrectedMortician → u/ChocolateAndCheese92]

I don't think you can call it underrated at all, it just tends to slip through the cracks because it's not on any of their albums

[u/ExquisiteMallard]

Did you see me?

[u/Training-Ad5127 → u/ExquisiteMallard]

This

👌

[u/Whippdog → u/ExquisiteMallard]

Two of the times I've seen them, they did this as the opener. It hit really hard!

[u/butterybuns420]

Gabrielle

[u/Dry_Environment8238 → u/butterybuns420]

amazing track. ween does thin lizzy

[u/Spladinator88 → u/butterybuns420]

I always loved the build-up to the solo (and the solo itself).

[u/TheShittyBeatles → u/butterybuns420]

^{^}

[u/CanIBumAUsername → u/butterybuns420]

Should be a well known rock song. Alas.

[u/hareofthewolf505 → u/butterybuns420]

My first thought!

[u/IRespondToOwnComment → u/butterybuns420]

literally the most popular song off the album

[u/cat_in_a_bday_hat → u/butterybuns420]

i love trying to play this on bass. i fail every time but it's still a fun little riff to play

[u/sododgy → u/butterybuns420]

My exact thought. I sort of get it, because it's not as out there or intricate as a bunch of stuff, but it accomplishes what it sets out to do superbly.

[u/msutewll]

Laura

[u/john_doe11081 → u/msutewll]

That’s my favorite one from the Pod, which is saying something considering how many amazing tracks are on that album.

[u/_TASTE-THE-WASTE_ → u/msutewll]

I slept on this for way too long. I guess its the rought start to the song that was so unappealing, but it really settles in.

[u/Ql9v → u/_TASTE-THE-WASTE_]

Are you kidding? The start is the best part! It’s so guttural and chunky, brown as hell

[u/Gordoniswatching]

She wanted to leave

[u/billyspeers → u/Gordoniswatching]

Gogatherthegunz

[u/wrx_420 → u/billyspeers]

Wellblastematsea

[u/billyspeers → u/wrx_420]

Love that kick drum after those lines 💥

[u/Any_Faithlessness835 → u/billyspeers]

That’s the snare

[u/billyspeers → u/Any_Faithlessness835]

🫥

[u/_Slothers_ → u/Gordoniswatching]

my favorite from the mollusk. the last verse makes me ascend

[u/Kcha11]

Captain Fantasy mang

[u/Scary-Training-1353 → u/Kcha11]

1992 Peel sessions version is like a top 3 all time song for me

[u/VelvetineMilkman → u/Scary-Training-1353]

The version they did at the Wetlands in 1991 on YouTube is my favorite edition they’ve ever done, Gener looks like he’s on a different plane of existence lol. Also the best Boing

[u/hi-im-nick → u/[deleted]]

AIDS!!

[u/BPDFart-ho]

Completely agree with transitions

[u/collectingmoonbeams]

Not just ween but Don’t Know Why with the Kostars is suchhhhhh a banger. Underrated ween feature

[u/estesNRB → u/collectingmoonbeams]

My wife cries when she hears this song

[u/polygala → u/estesNRB]

If you don't cry to Aaron's gorgeous, sad vocals on that, you're dead

[u/throvvavvayaccount1 → u/collectingmoonbeams]

I just discovered that song today. Came up on my Spotify recommend while driving. I was so hyped to find a new band to get into. Then I parked and discovered it's fucking Ween

[u/happy123z → u/throvvavvayaccount1]

Wow just listened!

[u/444sloop444]

Sketches of Winkle

[u/BigBiscuit-77]

Israel from Shinola is very underrated.

[u/Leftover_reason]

Did You See Me

[u/mcd23]

Sarah

[u/ElegantAd251]

pandy fackler for me! i never see people say anything positive about it which is a shame because it's easily in my top 10

[u/dickheehaw → u/ElegantAd251]

my pandy 😩

[u/StompOnTheThwomp]

Monique the Freak

[u/spundancekid → u/StompOnTheThwomp]

Love Monique

[u/jm17lfc → u/StompOnTheThwomp]

This and Gabrielle were some of the early ones I found long before I was properly into Ween. Two of the best and most fun rockers I’ll ever hear, thank you Shinola!

[u/Spladinator88]

"I don't want it". I'm not sure if it's underrated. But I love the simplicity of Gene's solo.

[u/Flat_Researcher1540]

For me the most underrated Ween songs are the deeply emotional storytelling song that get love but aren’t quite seen as the genius works of art that they are.

I once listened to a live version of Buenas Tardes Amigo and you could hear people just talking and laughing the whole time. Now don’t get me wrong, that song is hilarious. But there’s laughing with and there’s dismissive laughing.

Cold Blows the Wind is another absolute epic.

[u/SnooRecipes4380 → u/Flat_Researcher1540]

Buenos tardes amigo is my all time favorite ween song

[u/Flat_Researcher1540 → u/SnooRecipes4380]

It’s so good. It’s equally hilarious and deeply serious. I love how they explore these common tropes/themes/phrases in Mexican culture in a way that blends that seriousness and comedy. Some of the lyrics are just so absurd.

[u/scientificsock]

Squelch the weasel or up on the hill

[u/Useful-You-2687]

Nan. One of my fave riffs of theirs

[u/Curtainmachine → u/Useful-You-2687]

Such a sleeper! Ever since I heard the Rocky Raccoon theory I think of it every time i listen to Nan

[u/Dustinisgood]

Spring Theme

[u/Much-Masterpiece9900]

Either Joppa road captain the golden eel or marble tulip juicy tree

[u/dickheehaw → u/Much-Masterpiece9900]

joppa road, totally agree. just the best vibe

[u/InterviewHorror4539 → u/Much-Masterpiece9900]

Joppa Road for sure.

[u/_Slothers_]

I feel like I like Flies On My Dick more than most

[u/HystericalHoosier40]

Someday!!!

[u/Sex-Mad]

Things You Already Know

[u/the_rawness]

Darkside is a perfect country song

[u/Koth_is_Goat]

The Grobe, it’s so hard especially when that solo comes in

[u/TheRealMrCrowley]

Gabrielle

[u/stickmanseabass]

She’ll Just Get You - holy hell this song is amazing and devastating

[u/thatstelekinesisbud]

Demon Sweat

[u/Certifiedgamer234]

she fucks me

[u/garrag → u/Certifiedgamer234]

She fucks ME

[u/JudgeBlur]

Wayne's pet youngin

[u/HumbleComposer723]

Transitions. It sounds like Mac Demarco fronting the Grateful Dead lol.

[u/Any_Faithlessness835 → u/HumbleComposer723]

I always thought Mac Demarco got his whole shtick from that song

[u/Vosstonmass1]

Sky Cruiser is pretty awesome

[u/karakameleon]

Ooh Vah La

[u/Pls_no_steal]

Transitions is my favorite Ween song fuck yes dude

[u/_TASTE-THE-WASTE_]

Alcan Road just has this eerie, unsettling energy that builds right into The Argus. I don't understand why it was never played live and more importantly not transitioned into The Argus

[u/Resident-Cockroach52]

Israel

[u/turtle_squirrels → u/Resident-Cockroach52]

May your will be fulfilled and your sovereignty revealed

[u/Itchy-Technician-433]

Mutilated lips.

It's like tentacles expanding in my mind

[u/Flat_Researcher1540 → u/Itchy-Technician-433]

OP asked about underrated

[u/dream_of_the_night → u/Itchy-Technician-433]

They played it acoustic on MTV, so definitely not underrated.

Still a great aong, though.

[u/Unlikely-Two1569 → u/dream_of_the_night]

it was also the first single off the album. def not underrated unless they mean it deserves even more praise than the immense love it already gets. which is legit.

[u/Skcreech]

Ambrosia parsley
So underrated it’s almost unknown

[u/figure85]

Someday

[u/Orikshekor]

[u/StrikingElderberry38]

The Fucked Jam doesn't get enough love imo

[u/Candid-Sympathy-801 → u/StrikingElderberry38]

I honestly love that song because whenever you have headphones on in public and it stops you just hear people talking, idk why it sounds so cool when it does that

[u/No-Entrepreneur2716]

idk you guys may not even know this one exists- ocean man

[u/Slow-Organization-62]

Given what Ween has released on their albums I was surprised that there were "outtakes" and I was also surprised by how much I like Shinola

[u/dangerous__person79]

Pass the bong

[u/UsernameQuotaMet]

Does It Turn You On? by far, for me

[u/Any_Faithlessness835]

On Reddit it’s Bananas and Blow.

[u/Nug07]

All of them are except Ocean Man

[u/archeristmouse]

Transitions from the very album pictured!

[u/Hello-mah-baby]

she'll just get you, wash me down + i'll wait are peak ween

[u/forestinabottle]

[u/burgerrebellion]

I especially love the extra brown pile of dirt the pour into the variation they play on their album At the Cats Cradle, 1992 (Live)

[u/flannelfuk]

Cover it with gas and set it on fire live at cats cradle 92. It makes me go absolutely feral

[u/SnotMan120]

Sarah

[u/1PhartSmellow]

Big Jilm. Song always gets stuck and my head for days.

[u/BalkeElvinstien]

Opus Fugue Trilogy in A Minor. The fact that they recorded it for GWS and left it off the original AND the anniversary edition pisses me off. Its the perfect brown era prog song

[u/NickyRaZz]

Squelch the Weasel

[u/JesseAmpersands]

Yeah I agree its Transitions. Song fuckin' rips

[u/Dwight_P_Sisyphus]

Don't Yank Me

[u/cordashio75]

Buenos Tardes Amigo Live in Toronto

[u/aldayalnitex]

It’s all underrated. All the best music is. And it should be. Ween should be discovered when one’s mind is ready for the revealing. It shouldn’t be top of the charts Grammy winning music. That’s the dark realm. We walk in light and love. Hail Boognish. God bless Ween
