I just love the drive behind the songs on this album. This isn't even one of the best tracks, but it still comes on strong.

Re: Biggest Fan Songs - September 2021
998. Rush – Fly by Night - (6) decent song by a band I don't generally like. The album was on the Biggest Fan album thread, maybe I'm getting used to them !
997. Garbage – As Heaven Is Wide (10) Just listened to this song this weekend. I just love Shirley Manson's voice in this (she goes really low !), the bass and rhythm are fantastic. Lyrically, creepy as hell (if flesh could crawl, my skin would fall from off my bones...) and Butch Vig's production is beyond this world. The break at 4:00 is simply heavenly. Perfect song.
996. Madonna – One More Chance: (2) What a letdown after Garbage creepy masterwork.
995. Elvis Costello & the Attractions – Good Year for the Roses: (6)

Almost conventional hard rock, considering these guys standards, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. The song simply rocks.

Based on the title I would have loved for this to be the last pick, but I don’t dare to overrule the Random Gods. It has been a journey after all these years, though, hasn’t it?

Schmaltz in its purest form and not in a good way. It tries way too hard to be grand and emotional, without adding anything to set it apart.

Re: Biggest Fan Songs - September 2021
It’s been over two and a half years since Muddy Waters brought us Good News and Biggest Fan started. We now finally have reached the last song, at least until Holden finishes the new song list and we reboot this thing. The first edition will end with a wistful question: will this be the end of the good times? We’ll see. We do at least finish with an acclaimed song, as this one ranks at #6570 on our main website. It is also the fifth appearance by The Kinks.
1000. The Kinks – Where Have All the Good Times Gone
Year: 1965
Album: The Kink Kontroversy
Biggest Fan: Brad (#658)
Don’t forget you can always vote for earlier songs or change your vote!
The final results will probably be presented in the weekend of the 16th and the 17th of October (a week and half from now). If you have to catch up, now is the time!

This is quite an improvement over some juvenilia I heard yesterday by the Kinks (or, "The Ravens"), "I Believed You."

So the first edition of Biggest Fan doesn't go out with a bang, but also not with a wimper. At least it is a good song, with some fine riffage from Davies.

Much more speed than the following two songs!
999. Journey – After All These Years - 3
It's a bit much
1000. The Kinks – Where Have All the Good Times Gone - 5
These guys never quite do it for me after the first album, but no judgement or Kinks-shaming for those who enjoy them.
I reckon any of these three could have been a good final track, sentiment-wise. It's been an excellent journey, Rob, thanks for running this! Looking forward to season 2.

Re: Biggest Fan Songs - September 2021
This last batch of songs sums up what Biggest Fan is all about. What exactly that is, I'm not sure but I've liked almost every inch of the journey, if not the Journey:
Chicago - Hard Habit to Break 2
Deacon Blue - Shifting Sand 4
