    How do you know that song isn't where I got my handle from?

    Cuz I've got a steel trap memory. It's from one of those douchey bro, car racing movies.

    Rolling Stones - Stinky Fingers
    My power rankings of this round....

    1- Sticky Fingers
    2- Pet Sounds
    3- Nashville Skyline
    4- Wish You Were Here

    I love the top end songs of Pet Sounds so much and it was probably more influential than any record on this list. But Sticky Finger is epic from front to the back and has 2 of my top 10 songs of all time- i.e., Dead Flowers and Can't You Hear Me Knocking.

    Made the decision to count MMT as a Beatle's album even though it was really just an EP in the UK + stray singles from 1967. It was a proper LP in the US and was all new material for that year.

    Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
    So, so you think you can tell
    Heaven from hell
    Blue skies from pain
    Can you tell a green field
    From a cold steel rail?
    A smile from a veil?
    Do you think you can tell?
    Did they get you to trade
    Your heroes for ghosts?
    Hot ashes for trees?
    Hot air for a cool breeze?
    Cold comfort for change?
    Did you exchange
    A walk on part in the war
    For a lead role in a cage?
    How I wish, how I wish you were here
    We're just two lost souls
    Swimming in a fish bowl
    Year after year
    Running over the same old ground
    And how we found
    The same old fears
    Wish you were here



    'Nuff said.

    Well when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair
    Talkin' to some rich folk that you know
    Well I hope you won't see me in my ragged company
    Well, you know I could never be alone
    Take me down little Susie, take me down
    I know you think you're the queen of the underground
    And you can send me dead flowers every morning
    Send me dead flowers by the mail
    Send me dead flowers to my wedding
    And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
    Well when you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac
    Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
    Ah, I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
    And another girl to take my pain away
    Take me down little Susie, take me down
    I know you think you're the queen of the underground
    And you…

    Beatles - Magical Mystery Tour
    Between wish you were here, pet sounds, and magical mystery tour. I guess you know what you're doing if you make it to this many albums.

    Tough between Pet Sounds and Floyd. PS is more influential, but WYWH is my sentimental favorite Floyd album
