in The Porch
Was scrolling through the site (all songs) and wondered what everyone's favourite (least fav) regular heavy heavy rotation live song is.

The following have been played live 400+ times:

1. Alive (688)
2.Better Man (456)
3. Black (512)
4. Corduroy (492)
5. Daughter (470)
6. DTE (446)
7 Evenflow (763!!)
8. given 2 Fly (407)
9.Jeremy (486)
10. porch (506)
11. RVM (408)

Personally... out of the eleven above...

I absolutely love Corduroy live.

Could live without Daughter
IF NOTHING IS EVERYTHING, I'LL HAVE IT ALL.

    Corduroy is great live, but I wish they'd play it like they did in the mid 90s. But it is still good.

    I adore black live- it's just epic.

    Porch is always great as well.

    I have seen all the songs mentioned live, but these are the ones I enjoy most out of the list on this thread.

    I wish they would slow Evenflow back down as well.

    I could go without Even Flow, Jeremy, and Daughter. The rest of those songs I don't think I'll ever get sick of hearing live.

    Fourteen shows, seen/heard Even Flow 12 times. I love the song dearly but not the sped up version they have played live for ~ 15 years. If they'd slow it down I'd put it at the top of my list of songs to see live. If there are no plans to do so I'd prefer to not see/hear it ever again.

    "Given to Fly" is so awesome live, as is "Porch." I would place "Do the Evolution," "Better Man," and "Black" on the wish-they'd-play-less list. I know I'm in the minority when it comes to "Black."

    GTF just nudges out DTE as my favorite to hear from this list.
    Love all of these songs obviously but if I had to rank them (since you asked least favorite) I think #11 on the awesome song list would currently be Jeremy. Love it -- and when I first saw them in 93 I thought it was the song of the night - but something has to finish #11.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    My personal ranking:

    11. Jeremy - Love it, but it's never matched the studio intensity live. The alternate '95 era version was beautiful, though.
    10. Even Flow - While I prefer it funkier, I really don't mind the tempo increase. Nearly every single one of these songs is slower on the record. I do love watching Mike create on stage every time out, though.
    9. DTE - Crazy energy! And of course, the "Hallelujah" part is goosebump-inducing.
    8. Corduroy - Always a fantastic way to get things moving near the start of a show.
    7. Daughter - Love the tags, especially It's Okay.
    6. Better Man - The singalong of all singalongs. It's no accident that Crowe used the MSG version the way he did in PJ20.
    5. Given to Fly - It's a great song on boots, but nothing can quite capture what it's like in person. Being in the pavilion for it at PJ20 was one of the greatest releases of energy I've ever been a part of.
    4. Rearviewmirror - Love that jam in A. Jeff's work always sticks out. And that ending. My God, that ending...
    3. Alive - Just such an incredible vibe and connection with the audience live.
    2. Porch - What a BEAST! Mike tears it up, but Jeff, Stone, and Matt really lock in to some amazing shit during the jam.
    1. Black - Still the best and my favorite PJ song, both studio and live. Not sure that'll ever change.
    I am lost, I'm no guide, but I'm by your side.
    I am right by your side.

    With you on the could stand to hear Black way less!
    Would have to go with RVM for the one I like to hear live best although Corduroy is a close second.
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    After thinking over it these are my rankings:

    11. Better Man: It used to be one of my favorites but I can't stand it anymore.
    10. Given to Fly: Love it live, but, other than Better Man, it is tricky near the bottom.
    9. Daughter: The only reason I rank it above GTF is because of the tags, especially WMA.
    8. Even Flow: Would like if they put it in the encores every once in a while.
    7. Jeremy: Only song I haven't seen live on this list. Want to see it desperately.
    6. Porch: Normally means no RVM. Great song, but would rather see RVM.
    5. Corduroy: Early show necessity.
    4. Do the Evolution: Stone singing Hallelujah and the crazy hype makes it.
    3. Black: Mike's solo and We Belong Together tag. No explanation required.
    2. Alive: Sing-along staple to every show.
    1. RVM: Mike's trippy solo and the end of the song are UNREAL!!

    if they play this version of RVM it would be my choice, but they only play it once in a great while when they are feeling particularly juiced up, so I have to go with Porch, they bring it strong every time when they play that, here are my favorite version of each, I recommend headphones as loud as you can possibly stand it :)
