Hmmm...that's a tricky question.

Do you mean-

Of all time?
Right now?

Acoustic?
Live?

Right now, my fav is "Run Thru"...that song kicks ass.  Of all time, I couldn't choose!  There's too many freakin' awesome tunes...
Runnin' from somethin' that isn't there

Hmm, isn't there already a topic about that? I posted a 20-track best-off there, check it out.

"Phone Went West" and "Nashville to Kentucky" ("take me out..." and the way Jim sing it is my favorite MMJ line).

By the way, "Phone Went West" is  probably one of my favorite live songs ever. They did it both in Chicago and in Headliner's on Saturday, not exactly the same both times but just as amazingly good. They must go on for 6-10 minutes and you still wish they'd continue for another five minutes. A great, great song by a great, great band.

I've always had a thing for "By My Car." I can't really imagine Jim kicking anyone's head in. But I totally know how he feels.
You came around when I needed you, now I'm up to my neck in you.

I love "The Way That He Sings," especially live.

By the way, are you going to see MMJ in Manchester on 22 Nov?

I have pondered this deeply, and my favorite MMJ song of all time has to be "It's About Twilight Now".

It seems like yesterday that the crowd at Headliner's had their hair sheared off by the brute force of this song...it was a show for radio broadcasters, and I think the audience expected a Jim solo acoustic show.  Instead, they got a full on, monster sized, ass whompin', molten slab of igneous rawk that pummeled the very soul of the crowd into beautiful submission.  I'll never forget the looks on the faces of the folks around me.  Absolute awe, shock...

tough call.
for me, i guess "i will be there when you die".
I get a different reaction to this song; its raw and naked and perfect.

Hard question. But i think "i will be there when you die" Or "Bermuda highway" ,at the moment.

Another vote for "I Will Be There When You Die" here. See my post about the Denver show for a neat story about Jim playing that song for me.

I also really love "Bermuda Highway" and "Strangulation"

Live, it's that "One Big Holiday"-"I Will Sing You Songs" combo and "Phone Went West" that really get me.
