5 favorite MMJ songs???

[watchtower41]

Ok, I know this will be extremely difficult for some of you, as your "list" probably constantly changes all the time, as does mine.....
Got this idea to make a post for this over here on this board, there is a great discussion about the same topic (but with only top 3 songs) on the Wilco board that I frequent, and was plesantly surprised by the wide range of responses...I can only imagine on here.


Here is mine, as of right now at least

The Way That He Sings
One Big Holiday (one of the best live rock anthems for any band)
Dondante (love the dark sax solo at the end)
Nashville to Kentucky
Weeks Go By Like Days

[loper]

The Bear
Steam Engine
Don Dante
Sun Rides/I Will Be There When You Die
Xmas Curtain

[The DARK]

The simplest ideas make the best threads.  8-)

Steam Engine (Okonokos)
Dondante (Okonokos)
Cobra
Wordless Chorus
Off the Record

HONORABLE MENTIONS

Dancefloors
Strangulation
War Begun
One Big Holiday

[brkndwnbus]

where to begin
strangulation
sooner
one big holiday (Okonokos version)
lay low


my other top 5 faves!

the way that he sings
lowdown
I will be there when you die
by my car
isobella with the white umbrella

[chunt983]

Nashville kentucky (favorite song of all time by any band)
The bear
Golden
Death is the easy way
mahgeetah (the first song I heard when I bought my first MMJ album, blew me away)

those are my top 5, very difficult to get it down to five. Then again, you could have said "top 30 favorite MMJ songs" and I still would have had a hard time narrowing it down.

[ManNamedTruth]

Lay Low (my absolute fave)
Mahgeetah
One Big Holiday
Lowdown
Anytime

[Tree]

Tough one. This could change every week every day. But I´ll try it:

They Ran
By My Car
Golden
One Big Holiday
Strangulation

[The Big Come Up]

Lay Low
Heartbreakin Man
Just Because I Do
Off The Record
Magheetah

(I Will Be There when You Die, Anytime, I Will Sing You Songs, Xmas curtain, Dancefloors round out my top 10)

[jordan]

Just One Thing
Nashville To Kentucky
I Think I'm Going To Hell
Phone Went West
One In The Same

[ziggypayne]

One Big Holiday
Cobra
O Is The One That Is Real
Run Thru
Off The Record

Others in the top 10:  Don Dante, Anytime, Phone Went West, Gideon, It's About Twilight Now

[saki]

This is very difficult...

the bear
lowdown
mahgeetah

steam engine

honourable mentions:
golden, old sept. blues, if it smashes down, wordless chorus, where to begin

[Jernigan]

This is like asking me which of of my three children do I like the most.....

In no particular order:

Steam Engine
Come Closer
Lay Low
Strangulation
If it smashes down

Yeah, you know what.....I really can't say those are my top five....it's too hard.

Top five for the day?

I could live with that.....
