How did Quartet get this far?  It's so light and twee.  And yet Order of the Universe and Brother of Mine are out? I get it, "tastes", but man, I don't get this one.  Quartet AGAIN.

For me, Quartet gets a boost simply because of the cassette single version of the "I'm Alive" section of the song:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mnly2nTBsj8 (apologies for what might rival Time Stand Still as worst music video of all time).  This was used as the first dance at my wife's and my wedding back in 1996.  The album version of this is about 1/3 as long and pretty nondescript.

That said, Quartet, Order, Themes and Brother are pretty well interchangeable in the 2-5 spots.  I'd jump Let's Pretend and The Meeting ahead of Fists of Fire, and the aggregate otherwise reflects my ranking.
