5 o'clock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (oh yeah........it most certainly is SOMEWHERE!)

This was the toughest one yet, for me.

I don't think Piece of Work comes off that well in concert, so went with 5:00.

POW is a favorite cause it's one BN'ers DD to me every time!! But 5:00 makes me happy to hear every time!

5:00 definitely gets more airplay with me than POW.

5:00 Somewhere just has such huge appeal and gets my vote, but this was a tough one because I like Will K so much and this song rocks at the shows. And it's rockin right now on RM. I really like MAC's vocals on it too and the girls'

Just don't like POW so this is an easy one for me.

Are we going for the Jackson/Buffett version or the Mac/Buffett version?

If the Jackson/Buffett version is what we are voting on there is not much

Jimmy there to really be part of this because it really becomes a AJ song

instead of a JB song.

Refs we need a consultation on this one.

Well since the vast majority of the 115 performances are Jimmy/Mac versions and live Jimmy/Alan versions are rare, I'd say that most of your decision should come from the Jimmy/Mac versions. BTW IMHO, I like the Mac/Jimmy version soooo much better than the Alan/Jimmy version.

I voted for It's Five O'Clock. It's not that I don't like POW, because I do like the song. I just think Jimmy played it to death two years ago as an opener. It is a good opener in my opinion, it just shouldn't be used for every show.

Exactly how I expected this to go

Piece Of Work!

How I look at myself every morning!

But for the first (and only) time I ever saw Will Kimbough he opened with Piece Of Work... Rock on! Will You da man!

Wow, this is a close call. I like both but 5oclock should prevail.

I've never ever liked Piece of Work no matter who does it so this was easy! 5:00

This is the first one I've had a problem with. I see 5 o'clock as an Alan Jackson song since it appeared on one of his albums (CD's), and I think I remember Jimmy saying in an interview that he sings for like 20 seconds during the song. I like the song and how Jimmy and Mac do it in concert but I have to go with POW on this one.

I was having a hard time until I remembered that I like Alan Jackson more than I like Toby Keith

This is a real tough choice for me. I really like Piece of Work, but 5 O'Clock Somewhere typifies the Buffett mythology.

Based on that, I have to 5 O'Clock somewhere. Plus, I can't help but scream along with:

Pooouuuuur me something tall and strong
Make it a hurricane before I go insane
It's only half past 12, but I don't care
It's 5 O'Clock somewhere

Great workday anthem.

5 O'Clock!!!

This may be a new "classic" if a SYKbH II was ever to be released.

Both outstanding songs, but Somewhere is so much better.

Hmm... I'm not really a big fan of either. Maybe I'll abstain.

I can't vote more than once?????? I'm from Chicago, Even dead people vote in Chicago.
