Gotta be "Pirate looks at 40" for me, I saw him do it live in KW when A1A first came out winter of '74-'75, never fails to bring a tear to my eye to this day.

I know I said "Far Side of the World", but there ARE so many.
My favorite SYKBH is "Changes In Latitudes/Attitudes"
My favorite cover song is "Brown Eyed Girl" peace to you, Bonnie, wherever you are
My favorite Ballad is "A Pirate Looks At 40"
My favorite "upbeat" song is "We Are the People Our Parents Warned Us About."

JUST SO DARN MANY.
and, oh yes, let's not forget OPH.

Having heard the song a bazillion times on CD and radio, it's still just really cool to reflect on the fact that yuo're hearing it live from the guy who wrote it.

This is a really tough one, but I've got to agree with you Duff! I mean, where else can you see 40 or 50 thousand people suddenly making fins above their head in unison! :D

Hard for me to pick out any one particular song....I love hearing new songs that I've never heard live before though. Hearing Spicoli's theme and IMAINFY at the Vegas show this fall was a real treat!

I could come up with a different favorite almost daily, so todays vote for favorite live song is USS Zydecoldsmobile accompanied by the great Zachary Richard.
I belong in the past, I was not meant to last, and I hope I get there one day!
