    Jeremy is almost criminally underrated at this point. It's an incredible song that still pops the live crowd to this day.
    Agree.  I enjoy jeremy a heck of a lot more than state of love and trust.
    Agreed, I can't believe SOLAT has so few votes!

    I love SOLAT. Both the studio version and at every show where I've heard it live it always rocks. But, in a competition like this, it's going to be beaten out by the heavy hitters.

    It's actually a low point of most shows for me, it's muddy and the entire band phones it in, there's never an abundance of passion, I feel like they use it and SBC to get a breather without slowing the pace.
    Dissident isn't perfect, but the guitar riff is a Jimmie Page style instant classic.  It may still be a first round elimination, but SOLAT doesn't have anything about it that stands out and should be in Jeremy's place if not for fatigue.

    In a 3 hour show there's going to have to be some lulls in the passion they play with, and I like that some of those less passionate songs are heavier, it makes room for the lighter stuff to be full-hearted.

    I love SOLAT as well.  Especially the older live versions.  It has become more tame in recent years but still a great tune.

    I think part of my SOLAT love stems from the great memories I have of Singles and its soundtrack. Nostalgia is strong with this one.

    Possibly, I enjoy Once. I think Smile would be better/best
