1. A Swallow On My Neck - 7 (like the loose riffy vibe, but the melody is slightly lacking)
2. All The Lazy Dykes - 10 (reminds me of I know it's over)
3. Alma Matters - 8 (used to love this more but got bored....)
4. Ambitious Outsiders - 4 (hate the production, doesn't connect, would always skip)
5. America Is Not The World - 9 (never understood the hate for this one)
6. Because Of My Poor Education - 5 (and lack of enthusisasm, just doesn't do anything for me)
7. Best Friend On The Payroll - 6.5 (something goes out of tune on this one)
8. Billy Budd - 10 (forever - remember how exciting it was to hear for the first time?)
9. Black-Eyed Susan - 8.5 (their day in the life, should have been a 10 but the middle bit doesn't do what i wished it would)
10. Boxers - 8.5 (gorgeous melancholy, top of the middle)
11. Certain People I Know - 10 (if only there'd been sunshine in that video. love this so much)
12. Dagenham Dave - 7.5 (a minute too long, but it's still ace)
13. Dear God Please Help Me - 8 (not as brilliant as it should be)
14. Do Your Best And Don't Worry - 8.5 (started to love this again after hearing it at the dublin castle with Johnny on bass the other day)
15. Don't Make Fun Of Daddy's Voice - 5 (the verse is a triumph, the chorus disappoints)
16. Fantastic Bird - 10 (why so lowwwww, this is brilliant)
17. First Of The Gang To Die - 10 (of course)
18. Friday Mourning - 10 (except for the lame pun of the title, this song is all time top ten for me)
19. Ganglord - 8 (reminds me of U2 so Ive had to deduct a couple of points)
20. Glamorous Glue - 9 (great hair, great guitars)
21. Good Looking Man About Town 6 (always preferred human being)
22. Have-A-Go Merchant - 7.5 (love it but was bit surprised when Alain played this last year, rather than some of the other crackers. this always feels half finished)
23. He Cried - 5 (a pretty unmemorable title for an unmemorable melody)
24. Heir Apparent - 6 (a bit like have a go merchant in it's interesting vbie but feeling slightly unfinished)
25. Hold On To Your Friends - 7 (come back to camden is better)
26. How Can Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel? - 9 (love love love how this one ends)

On average slightly higher than Boorer’s?
Well no, not really at this stage, quite the opposite (slightly lower) but it's an incomplete picture.
Boz's combined final top 5 looked like this:

Yes Boz has had more highs at this point, but also some below 5,5.

So Alain’s lowest is much higher than Boz’s, but then his highs are lower.

Yes, you're correct re; the 'lowest', at this stage. Boz's final lowest 5 looked like this:
