A few favourites I'd suggest are Backyard Flames, I Used To, MPLS Song, Brother, At Your Funeral, Crazy Horse, Kathleen, Buffalo, Song Of My Returning..... they really have so many good songs I can't choose haha.

Maybe check out the greatest hits they've brought out recently, 'Kick Over The Traces'. That has a really good selection, they've left out the few not-so-great ones so you can't go wrong with any of them.

"song of my returning" (cover)

"train station"

"crazy horse"

I agree with the ones that have been listed, but I don't think I saw the Great Divide. This may be a song that people who've been in a long term relationship can appreciate better, but I just love it! These lyrics:

"Whatever happened to yours truly?

Now I'm so spun, so high strung

That I can't even sleep

I just lie in bed awake

Grinding down my teeth

Get back up to go back out

And walk the same old streets

Always searching, something missing

Never satisfied

Whatever happened to you?

Now you laugh at how you used to care

You laugh at how you tried

You talk about how you weren't always

Tired all the time

You laugh at how we're going nowhere

And then you ask me why

We never do anything fun anymore

Well we're not much fun anymore

Whatever happened to you and me?

Whatever happened to our community?

Do you think that

We'll go down in history?

Or will we just be forgotten?

I don't want to be forgotten

I'm so scared of being forgotten

That's my problem, I'm so scared

We used to say look both ways

Before you cross our path

Now we both turn away

And there's nothing left

To bridge the gap

Between

Whatever happened to us

Do you think that it's too late

To start over again?

You say you're tired of having to

Start over again

That's your problem, you're so tired

That's my problem, I'm so scared

That it's too late, it's too late

It's too late to start over again"

Gets me every time ... and I know so many couples who fit this picture.

Anniversary Song, and both versions of On The Ave.

Although I've grown quite fond of Achin To Be lately. :D

My absolute favorite is "On the Ave." That song has been stuck in my head for a solid two months, I swear to God. Other amazing ones are: Kathleen, 27, 2nd Street, Letter to AOF, and Buffalo.

Also, if you like what you hear it's really worth getting the CDs. The album art is done by Pinhead's lyricist/drummer Aaron, it's awesome with all kinds of funny stuff written in the booklets along with the lyrics, love it! I can't recommend them highly enough, well worth getting.
