I rated Miss G a zero and knocked the Synchronicity songs down a notch from your voting. Is it a fantastic album certainly, but I find their shift into the more commercial pop sound took away from the musicianship to a certain degree. I really love all three albums though and all the remaining songs you gave a three were certainly worthy of that. Every Breath You Take and Wrapped Around were so wonderfully written and really strike a chord with just about anyone due to the amazing lyrical content. I'd still pull out Outlandos, I find it more fun in relation to the more serious tone of Synchronicity.
