What MMJ song does it for you?

[LET_THE_FETUS_ROCK]

  Steam engine (Bonnaroo '04)
  Way that he sings (Bonnaroo '04)
   If it smashes down   (the banjo and creaking chair-                                            HE is a ghost)
   Lay low
   Strangulation
   Run Thru
   Tyrone
    I think I'm going to hell
    I will sing songs


God! I love these guys.

Steam Engine (Acoustic) - absolutely amazing and beautiful

[Easy Morning Rebel]

When Jim did Master Plan acoustic on that Rolling Stone thingy I really got chills..

[MMJ_fanatic]

'Nuff said, good God amen y'all!

what rolling stone thingy?

[jrat]

being completely new as of 11 hours ago, im blown away by every song. but the ones that made me go buy the cds right before the store closed were:

"dondante", from the washington show in"streaming" section of the site. i live for long jams and sweet sweet raoring guitar. this had me hooked right away

also,"wordless chorus" and "it beats 4U", back to back. wish id been so high when i first heard them.

and "i will sing you songs".

im a huge neil young, pink floyd, pearl jam and radiohead fan, and this will fit nicely in to my collection. in fact, it will be first in my CD case for along time.i hope they come anywhere near ottawa ASAP.

i don't exactly know what it was, but i think it was during the release of ISM when jim was playing a couple of songs at some thing that rolling stone held in. fill me in where i'm wrong anyone?!

Go to the following link and enjoy.  The day I discovered this, I got nothing done.  The AOL sessions and the Rolling Stone stuff is downright ridiculous.  For me, JJ's steam engine on RS is the greatest acoustic performance I have ever seen.  The "way he sings" the subtle parts and the different changes, I uh I ,  oh hell just go watch and enjoy.

ah, you're outta luck dude, it's cover of a dylan song that they only did this summer.

that said...




Ohhhhhh shit ruuuuuuuuuunnnn!!!!!!


holy crap, this song is frickin amazing...i'm just now downloading the official bonnaroo set and enjoying/listening for myself screaming like a dumbass. It was a great set, though Jim's voice sounded really raw :) frickin awesome for a first show though.

[ali]

it changes on a daily basis.... current favs are

golden - this is such a warm summery song, it always makes me feel good

knot comes loose - ahhh

wordless chorus - jim's vocals at the end of the song ran a chill down my spine the first time i heard it. still does. there are only a few songs that have done that - jeff buckley's corpus christi carol, the first time i heard sigur ros... & now mmj!

[tomEisenbraun]

ha, that's right. it's summer for you guys down there, isn't it?

[ali]

summer in a BIG way. last week the temp was over 35 most days, saturday & sunday were both about 43 degrees. i think that's about 110F? stinking hot

[Dee.]

That always blows my mind.  You are on a whole other wavelength of summer vibin'.  Today's forecast for me, a crisp 37F - 3C!  

As for my favorite songs, I don't even know where to begin.  Oh, look at that - Where to Begin.  No, really, I find myself agreeing with everything you guys are saying.

This changes weekly

1--Lay Low
2--Golden
3--Steam Engine
4--What a wonderful man

[Amunet]

For special reasons, Tonight I Want To Celebrate with You is the song that brings the best memory.

But, my favorite take-me-to-another-universe song, live only, is One Big Holiday! As strange as it sounds, it makes me feel like i just jumped off the top of a 1000-story building to commit suicide but I'm not gonna die.  (how do you think Jim would take it if I told him that?  ;) )

And then my new fav is Knot Comes Loose.... wheew!! Gives me chills. Actually, think I'll turn that on right now. :)

[icemanhh]

1.Golden.
2.At Dawn. When jim just singing it takes me somewhere  
   else, to a world of wonder.
3.Old september Blues.
4.Bermuda Highway.
5.Nashville to kentucky.
6.Anytime (WHAT A SONG!)

[thebigbang]

So many MMJ songs do it, but
for best sheer spine tingling MMJ moment I proffer . . .

Trapped in gasoline . . .

A lizard on a string . . .

Nobody ever screams .AANNNYYMOOOOOOORE . . .

it's called the Dark.

And if you ever got to hear the band launch into that tune live, well, you what I'm talkin' about.

Man, just stokes me thinking about that intro.
