ObviousFool TTE is totally bunk, but undeserving of the title "worst song" simply because the jam out of it at the end has musical integrity, far more than Jennifer Dances or Sparkle...and @jmvig, do you seriously think that Sparkle is better than Weigh? I don't think anyone in the band would back you up there, I think Sparkle is a cheap thrill, it's radio friendly, nice and short, but completely lacking in compositional creativity.

I was really disappointed to see Foam on the list, it's far from their "worst" work, and Dinner and a Movie, while also something of a novelty, has it's time and place.

As far as the boys being offended that we didn't like TTE or Trey being proud of it, I've heard that while recording the album, Lillywhite said something along the lines of "you guys are missing that extended jam on the album" which I guess he thought had become a crucial element of a Phish album. Anyway, they wrote TTE as a result and like I said, the jam is fine but the song itself is BS.
