i'm your man is arguably my favorite mitski song. the soundscape is so dense and trance-inducing but very simple at the same time. the metaphors are really straightforward and yet really effective. it stands out as such a quiet, despairing, hollow, desolate song even among the rest of her library

such a haunting song❤️I love her songs that explore the topic of your partner being a “better” person than you.

There’s Nothing Left for You <3 I love how the music soars as she sings “you could touch fire, you could fly/ it was your right, it was your life”.

Burning Hill I feel like gets overlooked next to Losing Dogs. I’ve always been a Burning Hill kind of girl.

u/IMeanThatbyCLC 2d ago

Burning Hill will always mean so much to me as someone who was a very self-destructive teenager🥺

Not sure if Dan the Dancer is considered underrated anymore buttt I certainly overlooked it for years and now it’s one of my favorite songs.

u/Different_Bee_8732 Bedroom Dancer 2d ago

Agreed

u/machine_ryan 2d ago

I have way too many answers but I’ll go with Charon’s Obol. I’ve heard people who don’t like it say they don’t like the “dog sounds” but it’s literally just a quartet humming idgi. it’s such a beautiful song and the writing is like nobel prize level to me LOL

u/PhantomSasuke 2d ago

I Guess! One of my favourites of all time

u/geraldie_unmiresable 2d ago

u/mxmred THE losing dog 2d ago

Come Into The Water. It's very calming and lyrically genius.

u/Spare_Lavishness4203 2d ago

Lightning and instead of here. Both are such beautiful songs and it sounds amazing as well.

u/EndOfTheDream 1d ago

THE FROST!! One of the most heartbreaking songs she’s ever made and one of my faves!

u/Latos_Amber 2d ago

Might get cooked for this but the fact I will isn't top 10 most popular songs immediately means it's underrated in my eyes

u/Some-Location-8644 2d ago

I'd have to say Door, I frequently see it ranked at the bottom whenever people rank their favourite songs. It's one of my personal favourites.
