Duh, my favorite is Une année sans lumière, the fragile duet is quite enjoyable... even though the singer is not really fluent in french, it's nice to see him try (for an american, it's not too bad!)
It's a tough call, because I really REALLY dig Tunnels as well..
It's Rebellion - it's been Rebellion from the first time I listened to the album... but Tunnels and Old Flame are pretty close too 
(As you can see Nic I finally got around to buying that ep ;) )
I've only heard two songs so far but out of those two, I prefer Power Out; the word "epic" comes to mind. The video's pretty mad too - all those little imps trying to steal the electricity for themselves (or whatever it is they're up to).
I've also got a new song called 'Intervention' on CD, from some radio show gig. There they also played their version of 'Born On A Train'. Both great tunes. Fantastic band! 
Definitely, it's gotta be Rebellion for me. Extremely catchy. The ending where the strings fade in over the lyrics caps off the song perfectly!

'Born On A Train' is a Magnetic Fields song originally, I forgot to mention that.
Oh...and I voted for 'In The Backseat', the album closer. What a song that is! Too bad 'Intervention' isn't on the list. It contains this line in the chorus:
Working for the church while your family dies Little baby sister gonna loose her mind
Rebellion is actually #15 on MuchMusic's (Canada) chart right now! I had no idea. (I never watch MM anymore - I thought I was waaaay out of their demographic.) 
I just bought the remastered EP, so maybe it'll change.
I actually heard Rebellion on the radio yesterday !!

After many more listens, it's still Tunnels.
ive only downloaded rebellion,really like it though.released as a single on monday and i can see it being top 10..is the track pretty typical of the stuff on the album?
