Idea #21
Jesus in New Orleans
Remind Us
Ohio

BPD
Anything at All
Professional Daydreamer
Lifelong Fling
Long Lost Brother
Cruel & Pretty
Nobody Number One
Bothered
Idea #21

Professional Daydreamer is a heartbreaker.
Nobody Number One
Ohio

But they are all sooooooo good!

My favorites have changed quite a bit from month to month, but currently:

Anything at All
Professional Daydreamer
Changes Come
She
Cruel and Pretty
How Long Have You Been Stoned
Fool (not their most original song, but when Karin lets loose with that vibrato...)
Hometown Boy

Hometown Boy
BPD
She
How Long Have You Been Stoned?

Anything at All
She

Nobody Number One
Bothered
Changes Come
Lifelong Fling
Cruel and Pretty
Professional Daydreamer
How Long Have You Been Stoned

... in roughly that order. Other tracks keep making daylong appearances in the jukebox of my mind.

I have to add Show Me and How Long Have You Been Stoned to my list.

Even though Show Me is a bit on the pop side (which I don't mind really) I just find myself smiling and loving several of the lines in the lyrics. HLHYBS I have found the lyrics to get deeper the more I listen to it.

I was ovejoyed when they re-did "Bothered"!!! Second would have to be "Cruel and Pretty" and third would be "How Long...".

My current favorites are:
Suitcase
Changes Come
Professional Daydreamer
Long Lost Brother
What I'll Remember Most
Remind Us
Bothered

"Jesus in New Orleans", "Anything At All" and "B.P.D."

Grrrr ... it might be easier for you to ask me what songs aren't my favorite. There are fewer of those.

cruel and pretty

honorable mentions:
remind us
ohio
professional daydreamer

definitely Jesus in New Orleans

hey, you're new.

welcome to the orchard.

why don't you hop over to the member bios section and post a lil' something about yourself!!

nice pic... what's for dinner?

-kylie

i don't like to be forced to choose, as usual
but i have tried to come back to this one several times
so many appeal on different days

i really like idea #21 (Not Too Late) because the world is not as it will be
Ohio has that sense of home i value
show me, lifelong fling , nobody number one just because

but that was just listening through again tonight

every single one of them!!!

I heard "She" when Karin and Linford stopped through Indianapolis before the release of 'Ohio' - It was a fave back then, and is a fave now. I'm really enthralled with Nobody #1 - the lyrics are hitting home right now. Idea #21 is such an uplifting tune, and I think it is one of their most adventurous and original pieces. I felt like I had traveled back to my hometown of Columbus, GA, and was sitting in the pews of my old Baptist chruch....

Ya, I agree with all of your song choices here, but i just LOVE Idea #21

Ohio
Lifelong Fling
How Long...
Long Lost Brother

Although I think this list changes everytime I listen to the CDs

Nobody Number One

you must know, it made some people cry around me, when i pushed them to listen this song, that's a special reason to choose that song as personal Number One.

I love this band, have forever. I *love* this CD, every song, except one.

"When you say love."

But MAN, I'm trying to get it. I really am.

I was the same way, Troy. That was the only song I wasn't feeling. It was too much organ/wurlitzer, whatever. What I did w/ OHIO was end up burning a copy for my truck leaving off some tunes so I could listen to it on one cd minus 3-4 songs. After a while I started wanting to hear the ones I left off and re-made another truck copy and swapped out songs. *Voila* I like WYSL now, a lot. I will admit to still being very, very curious how that song sounds without all the keyboard stylings. Maybe even hear it slowed down, just once...

It was interesting for me too cause I realized that WYSL reminds me a lot of Hej (i do), and I took a while to warm up to that song too. Just things that make me go hmmm. That's all.

Hmmm. Well, Michelle, considering my *mad* respect for you and your taste, I have yet to close my mind to it. When I drive up, I'll try again to get to know it better.

If I don't like it, though, by the time I get there then I'm gonna inform Karin and Linford that it's comin off the disk.

oh - i'm sure they'll appreciate that, troy.

ya'll are crazy. i think that song is genius!

I'm sure it IS genius, Kylie, but that doesn't mean I get it. I just ain't that smart meeeself ya see.

Ohio
Fool
Jesus in New Orleans

The order changes (usually as the CD goes by), but the songs are generally the same. "Stoned" makes an occasional top 3 appearance, depending on...well, my answer to the question at the time.

I haven't really had time to listen to it enogh yet (lot of information on two CD:s) But Stoned definately pops out...

Not to happy about the "hidden" track though. What's that, a joke, an experiment or a new direction?

Patrik

All of it except:

Remind Us
How Long Have You Been Stoned
Show Me

B.P.D.
Ohio
Lifelong Fling
Long Lost Brother
Nobody Number One
Hometown Boy Bothered
How Long Have You Been Stoned
Show Me

~Tiff

Wow... so many to choose from. But I have to say these are my favorites...

She (most definitely the best)
Suitcase
Nobody Number One
How Long Have You Been Stoned
Cruel and Pretty
Changes Come

*Bothered*

Close second place:
Suitcase
Professional Daydreamer

But to just say how incredible this album is, the only song I sometimes - and just sometimes - skip out of all 21 is:
Changes Come

She and Suitcase consistantly are my favorites with others coming in and out depending on my mood.

i can't stop listening to cruel and pretty....i listened to this one song the whole 6 hours on the drive from ann arbor to milwaukee last weekend!! makes me sad that i didn't pay more attention to it when they were playing it on tour this past year...

-Jesus in New Orleans

Then, this string of songs does something culminating to my emotions...
-Suitcase
-Anything At All
-Professional Daydreamer
-Lifelong Fling

-Cruel and Pretty. I've come to love the lazy swing of this one.

I know this hasn't been posted on in a while, but I ran across it and no one said Fool???

I LOVE that song.

Good point Rach.

Here are the most played songs on this double disc for me (this is just my "on computer" play count of course, but you get the idea)...

Ohio - 66
Suitcase - 39
Changes Come - 37
Remind Us - 36
How Long Have You Been Stoned - 29

Least played?

Hometown Boy - 5
Fool - 8
When You Say Love - 8
Idea #21 (Not Too Late) - 9

I loves me some Ohio...

Ohio is a great record, fo sheezy. Not that the others aren't awesome too though.

it's one of my favorites, not just on "ohio" it's one of my "favorites."

This is one of my favorite OtR songs. Have they ever played this one live? I dont recall seeing it on any of the archived setlists. It sounds like the mix might be hard to achieve live...

Shang.

i know they did it in 2004 at the kerry benefit (10.21.04) @ the southgate house and @ the CST shows right after, these shows were just before the presidential election and that song is very politically charged. it's a great song.

OK. So not out of the question. Some songs just dont translate live in the absence of layers/musicians. I can imagine juicy has to achieve a delicate mix on this one.

Thanks Bill.
