Ok I am new to this band known as "MMJ. I have a cousin who said no more than check them out. I am from utah and she told me to attend their show when they come in November. My question to all of you is: I want a list of the top ten songs by these guys(in your personal opinion), songs that will leave me coming back for more. I know this is kind of a hassle, and i know some of you will be pissed off, but you true fans help me out i heard some stuff on my space and i liked it. Thanks again for the help. GO GUSTER!

Steam Engine (live from Bonnaroo)
Steam Engine (just Jim solo - see Streams section)

Aah, don't I just love making top 1o lists... :)
1. I will be there when you die
2. O is the one that is real
3. Phone went west
4. If all else fails
5. Isobella and the white umbrella
6. The bear
7. Steam engine
8. Heartbreakin' Man
9. Xmas Curtain
10. Cobra
I've stuck with songs from the 1st 3 CDs only so you don't have to look to hard for EPs etc or spend too much cash.
One Big Holiday
Steam Engine
Golden
Easy Morning Rebel
Heart Breakin Man
Lowdown
The Way That He Sings
Bermuda Highway
Hopefully
Phone Went West
In no particular order:
War Begun
Heartbreakin Man
The Bear
Come Closer
Can You See the Hard Helmet on My Head?
Just One Thing
One Big Holiday
Lay Low
I Think I'm Going to Hell
Evelyn is Not Real
I Will Be There When You Die
That's 11, but oh well. I think that 'War Begun' and 'Evelyn is Not Real' can only be truly appreciated through a live performance / recording, but no one in particular.
