I do enjoy 20 but 1) I don't consider it a B side since it's on an album and 2) I think Life and Soul has a more intriguing melody so my vote is
Life and Soul of the Party. |

20 is on an album? Never heard that before - care to explain? |

The Man Who
At the end of "Slide Show" (at least on the US version)
Edit: I just asked Nikki who has The Man Who and she doesn't have 20 on her album. My mind is totally tripped out. I swear it's on there. I am listening to right now. It's right after "Blue Flashing Light." And then there is "Only Molly Knows" after "20."
Edit to my Edit: I think Nikki must have the UK version because I was looking on travisography and "Only Molly Knows" is listed as on the US version. But oddly 20 isn't. |

Whoa...did you get some sort of super album?? Just BFL hidden for me.
Edit: Maybe I have the UK version as well. |

Life and Soul of the Party.
"20" is so over-rated among Travis fans it's not even funny. Not a bad song, but I feel like half the time people would be willing to trade the entire Travis catalog just for that track!
"20" is a b-side. Bonus tracks don't count as a-sides. If that were the case, "You Don't Know What I'm Like", "Ring Out The Bell," "Beautiful," "Definition Of Wrong,", "12th Memory," "Be My Baby," and both WTRY remixes would all be "album tracks." And that's just silly. :) |

I've noticed it's always one of the top played songs on your site. Lyrically it's quite moving and it's a nice song but yeah, it's not one of my top songs.
I guess I could go along with them being bonus tracks. But if they're on the album I don't consider them B sides. Why then is "Blue Flashing Light" an album track? |

I'm glad someone else thinks that, although 20 is good, I'm not sure it's the best b-side, certainly not by the margin you might think on here!
Do you get uber-albums in the US or something? They would be very b-sideish if you just counted the UK.
Oh, and my vote goes to:
Life and Soul of the Party
I love the line "Am I singing a song about me?". A case study in writing about yourself in the third person :) |

Life And Soul Of The Party...
is brilliant. Would have been a big hit if released as a single back in the good old days. (I know it wasn't written then, but if it was...) It's that good.
20 is also a great track. I disagreed with most of the rounds but i have to say, 2 great tracks made the final. |
