my top 40 starkid songs

These are all just my personal opinions. Feel free to discuss in the comments but remember to be civil!
And this should go without saying but: that doesn’t just mean ‘don’t cuss each other out’ it also means ‘don’t say a bunch of negative things about others opinions’. It is possible to disagree with someone without thinking they’re wrong.
Lastly, the lack of Starkid songs/shows with Brian Rosenthal and AJ Holmes in them is a sin. I've never read the bible but I'm pretty sure it's in there somewhere.
Oh, and for reference, there are according to my list currently 161 Starkid songs.
If you would like to help fill out a form for a future video of mine then the links to the ones currently open are at: lyle.carrd.co/

[@smathened]

Even though I disagree with a lot of these spots I do appreciate the fact you are appreciating songs that usually aren’t recognized. Caulk your Wagon, Robin Sucks, and Hideous Creatures are usually at the bottom of rankings in their respective musicals! Also, I love the fact To Be A Man and Our Doors are Open are so high up! The only choice you made that was a sin was leaving The Way I Do off this list! Edit: spelling error
