Amazing song. One of their best that unfortunately doesn't get played live enough.

Long Road probably, there's a few but that one always springs to mind on an overall. Live experience, Release. Jumping 10 feet high out of my mind on an absolute buzz sort of way, probably Corduroy or maybe Do the Evolution! Lyrics, Present Tense.
Release. My best friend's dad (a great father figure in my life, baseball/football/basketball coach and great family friend) unfortunately lost his battle with depression a few years ago and Release always makes me think of my friend and him. Getting it in Wrigley was really special.
Idk it sounds dumb but the song Long Road seriously got me through some rough times dealing with depression last year, both playing it and listening to it. That song is very special to me as well.

Release and Nothingman. To go to my first show in 2013 at Wrigley and that's how it starts, I was a mess. Follow that up with Present Tense, anyway, one hell of way for me to start my PJ live experience.

Man of the Hour. can't hear that song without thinking of my dad who passed away when i was 20. you know how you are at 20...kind of how the song fits the movie. hits me every time i hear it.
In My Tree Live, or studio version, this is hands down my favorite PJ tune. I related to the lyrics the first time I heard the song, and still do 20+ years later. (it was an added bonus to hear this played on my birthday in Philly last April....... it was pretty much the best birthday present the band could have given me, and they don't even know it)
Long Road is a close second as far as having an impact............. I was borderline bawling as they played this at Fenway 1.
Release (seeing that as an opener at Wrigley I damn near had me in tears, especially after Eddie's intro to it) Rearviewmirror (always hits home, I was picked on and put down most of my life and it generally gets me choked up, I had some watery eyes at Wrigley II)
These beautiful love songs: Low Light, Thin Air, Amongst the Waves, You Are. Given to Fly as it is so triumphant. Also Strangest Tribe - that really strikes a chord with me.
