Tell me your favorite!!!
Tell me why!!!

Stranded on the Sandbar. I love the "I used to go crazy for days at a time" line

This was hard because so many of the songs are different. I picked Fins because of the memory of hearing it out live, and the way the "Jaws" theme starts, and 25,000 people get their hands up, and we start going to the left......and to the right.....left...right...left..right..left.right.leftrightleftrightleftright and he calls out what town he's in and the drums kick in and it's just*BOOM*

Another toughie. I had to use a NINE-sided coin to determine what my second favorite is on this one, as it's ALSO a perfect album, but any sailor who actually LISTENS to the words of "Treat Her Like A Lady" cannot help but absoultely LOVE this gem of a song.
I did and I do.

when i cant sleep i put on ballads....survive is one that i have a extra special soft spot for...

Survive - it just makes me feel good, but Boat Drinks and Volcano are still fun!!

I picked Dreamsicle when I meant Survive, but I'll vote only once. Survive because when I am feeling down, I just repeat to myself, Survive (survive), stay alive. Yes I know it's about a woman, but I'm allowed to use the words out of context.

Love, Love, Love Survive..my favorite song!

Treat Her Like A Lady - Great song with lots of meaning.

Chanson Pour Les Petit Enfants
just a song I love to hear..

Boat Drinks.....because I live in a wintery place and I KNOW that cabin fever feeling only too well......and because this song captures the FUN of Buffett music so well!

and Hockey games..

Sending The Old Man Home always makes me think of MY DAD and the Old Officer's Club where I volunteer and some great parties we had there.

There's a lot of great songs on here but Treat Her Like A Lady, blows away every other song.

I remember the first time I heard it. It was off the box set, about the only CD's we had at the time, and it just grabbed me and made me even more of a fan of Buffett.

Stranded on a Sandbar....

because I have that T-Shirt

Dreamsicle. One of first Buffett concerts I ever went to he ended by coming out alone and singing this song and it was brilliant.

Ironically I find "Treat Her Like a Lady" far down the list, but thats why Jimmy Buffett appeals to so many!!!
