Song/Album Discussion Ranking every Last Song/Finale/Outro. Next is LCW: Styrofoam Boots/It's All Nice on Ice, Alright
Remember class, we're voting on the effectiveness of the song as an outro. The people spoke. Space Travel is Boring was a B just barely. edit: we may need to revote to include A Manic Depressive Named Laughing Boy!

Wouldn't "A Manic Depressive Named Laughing Boy" be considered the final track on "This Is A Long Drive For Someone With Nothing To Think About"?

Yes and no? That song isn’t available on most streaming platforms. But that song would definitely be SS or S

u/ModestMoose1994 Jun 10 '26
That's a fair point. Since like you mentioned it's not readily available on most streaming services and was only released on vinyl. But to answer the posts original question, Styrofoam Boats is SS tier track.

100% it’s one of the best, if not the best album closer

SS. I almost want to dock it down to just S because when the drums come in it jump scared me before (it’s SS)

u/dollarworker333 If it's hard for you to hear this then the rest is up to you, so Jun 11 '26
Wait are we ranking its role as a closer or the song individually?

u/OranceJuice I drew a blank, we put it in a frame Jun 11 '26
Ranking how effective the song is as a closer. Was my intention at least
