I like older women - what can i say?
How about this for a shifty answer - i think if i took the best 15 songs on TOTY, that would beat Doolittle.

Posted - 10/05/2009 : 05:58:18 TOTY. Both have killer tracks, but there's twice as many on Teenager. And it sounds better. The over-compressed midrangey Doolittle seems harsh in comparison....

TAMAL |
Posted - 10/04/2009 : 21:19:32 TOTY is better than Doolittle. 22 songs and not one boring moment. Not many albums like that mes amis. It's as good as Trout Mask Replica.
I enjoy reading people fighting on the net. Pixiesmusic.com had some classic moments let me tell you... |
Nate in the PDX |
Posted - 10/04/2009 : 20:33:19 Much as I love TOTY, make mine Doolittle.
(Thank goodness we don't really have to pick one or the other, eh?) |
Daisy Girl |
Posted - 10/04/2009 : 12:55:46 Doolitle.
Hard choice, but going for the sentimental favorite. |

I've not listened to either in a long time.

floop |
Posted - 10/04/2009 : 08:11:05 this thread is like asking someone to choose their favorite child, which no parent could do, blah blah blah...
but really, if your kids were TOTY and Doolittle, i think in your heart of hearts you'd have a special place for Doolittle. sure, TOTY gets better grades, but who likes a smarty pants? maybe some parents don't like their children having a better vocabulary than them, and lecturing them on inuit cultures and Roman history. Doolittle might not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but he's got spunk. remember that time he got expelled from school for creating an obscene comic book series involving the principal? despite the embarrassment, even you had to admit it was funny |

Posted - 10/04/2009 : 08:02:06 Both are great. TOTY wins my vote though.

don't get me wrong, you put the Purple Tape up against TOTY I'd pick the Purple Tape
I guess I like underdogs and Doolittle is no underdog, it's their biggest success. |

Posted - 10/03/2009 : 04:52:01 Doolittle for me.
Those synths on TOTY are so dated now, whereas Doolittle sounds still fresh to me. |
Carolynanna |
Posted - 10/03/2009 : 04:42:52 Definitely TOTY for me.
There are some totally hilarious posts in this thread.

4 sounded low so I re-counted. It's actually 5; me, floop, pot, Skatealex and Brank Flack. 12 : 5, ha! Still a real pasting.
But wait, madtempest added a late one for Doolittle making it 12 : 6.
But wait again, I only count 11 solid votes for Teenager; fu, kathryn, moonruler, Arm Arm Arm, Thomas, martha_promise, darwin, Scarla O, Ziggy, BLT and shineoftheever (Jose could still be undecided). All the doubters who said the surge wouldn't work.
What kind of show are you running here fu?

glad you're helping me tabulate! i was going to hire arthur anderson to do the books.

Posted - 10/03/2009 : 03:04:50 ...and also Doolittle is approximately half as long as TOTY, so any vote for it has to multiplied by two, which kind of makes it about even stevens.
