Default Crush -Vs- Bounce

In the vein of other similarly posted thread I thought this might be an interesting one. I recently came to the conclusion that as overall albums I like Bounce more than Crush but let's see how they shape up pitted against each other:

1. It's My Life
2. Everyday
3. The Distance
4. Two Story Town
5. Next 100 Years
6. Just Older
7. Hook Me Up
8. Right Side Of Wrong
9. Captain Crash & The Beauty Queen From Mars
10. You Had Me From Hello
11. Bounce
12. One Wild Night

Results:

Crush 7
Bounce 5

I think Crush's victories are far narrower than Bounce's however.

Crush is a quality album full of good songs, but it did sound a bit like a JBJ solo album.

Bounce suffered from a terrible mid section and had one to many pissy ballads.
But it did have gems like, Everyday, Hook me up, Undivided, Bounce. It just lacks a solid backbone.

Crush wins.

I like Bounce better than Crush, but the track order really hurts Bounce in this case. Here we go:

1. Tie
2. Everyday
3. Thank You For Loving Me
4. Two Story Town
5. Misunderstood
6. Just Older
7. Hook Me Up
8. Right Side Of Wrong
9. Captain Crash
10.Tie
11.Bounce
12.One Wild Night
