BULLET TRAIN TO OSAKA!!! I absolutely love that song, more people need to hear that song it's so cool! I think its a bit under-rated, probably the best instrumental they did

Perfect? Hmmm very good song so hard to say ... maybe a little over-rated? I love it but i can't say its under-rated.

Cupid De Locke?

Re:Overrated/Underrated 2 Months, 1 Week ago  
overrated. love the song and it could have made a good single but i was hoping they would push starz, neverlost, or come on lets go to the radio as the third/fourth single, depending on what you think of doomsday clock.

Okay, This Time.

This Time - TRAGICALLY underrated. I mean, how could you not cry listening to it right after the Pumpkins broke up? So gorgeous.

OK, I'm going to bite the bullet and throw a sacred SP track to the wolves:

Mayonaise.

You do realize if you say "overrated," I will (virtually) punch you. I mean, this song literally saved my life.

Mayonaise is one song that I could never hate even if it was overrated. I really don't think it's either underrated or overrated. It's perfect the way it is. One of the best on Siamese Dream.

Lets see...we'll do another well known one...

ZERO

Re:Overrated/Underrated 2 Months, 1 Week ago  
Landsides a great song but I have to say that it's overated. There were a bunch of other tracks on Pisces that could have been really good radio hits.

Also, I think Mayonaise is very underated. I can't believe that that song isn't as famous as Today for example.

How about Tales of a Scorched Earth

I agree with bullet on Zero. You can't really say its either- its Zero, one of the greatest songs ever. I listen to it all the time.

Tales of the Scorched Earth is underrated. I love that song. I just think it gets skipped over because the other heavier tracks off of MCIS are actually played at concerts and have gotten more exposure. This one has just kind of been shoved to the side by Zero, BWBW, XYU, F#ck You, etc.

Dross does nothing for me personally. It's not bad, but it's too uneventful. Boring, IMO. So, I'd say overrated (not that it's that well known anyway).

Re:Overrated/Underrated 2 Months, 1 Week ago  
Cupid de Locke: FAR too underrated. One of my favourite SP songs of all time.
Bring the Light: Can't decide on this one... bit of both really
This Time: Have to agree with Trillian on this one. It would sound even better if it was the third track on MACHINA, after Lucky 13 and SIYL
Mayonaise: Criminally underrated... apparently this has had it's share of radioplay in it's time, but why not more?
Zero: I like it and all... but it's a bit overrated. Definitely one of the better overrated songs though.
Landslide: How can this be overrated, it's the BEST cover Pumpkins (well, Billy, really) have done! It couldn't be rated highly enough IMO.
Tales of a Scorched Earth: Wayyyy underrated. This song is so frantic, so energetic, so many emotions squeezed into a little tight ball, then exploded onto the world. It's brilliant.
Dross: Not one of my favourites, but still underrated I think.

OKAY. Next song...

The one I'm listening to now, Rhinoceros.

Rhinoceros is a really good song but may be a little over-rated yet with so many awesome riffs jammed into one great song i can't say its really that over-rated at all ...

How about that this oldie ... She

She is definitely underrated. I love the finger-picking goodness, and how desperately James tries to sound spooky in his backing vocals on live versions.
