    If I was only allowed one song, would life even be worth living? ;)

    Think I'd had to go Ledbetter, oh but could NEVER live with only one of course. YL just keeps me so intrigued trying to work out the lyrics! ;-) I know what things online say they are but they don't sound like that to me half the time.

  • Low Light. So calm and peaceful, and I manage to find something new about it every listen.
    Do you see the way that tree bends? Does it inspire?

    I'll not lose my faith, it's an inside job today

    I was going to choose In My Tree, but I need something more uplifting, so I'm going with Unthought Known.

    I was one of the many "WTF @ No Code" people and at the time and had pretty much stopped listening to them. I was on a two hour drive home from the casino at 4am the day Yield came out and stopped in to a Meijer's to see if they had it out, as I was falling asleep at the wheel and needed something to help me with the rest of the ride. I bought it with almost no expectation and remember thinking, 'If this sucks, I'm done. I'm not buying any more of their stuff in the future."

    Well, I popped it in, and Brain of J was alright on a first listen, but Faithfull...and I mean just a couple minutes into the song...I dunno...but i just knew... that it and the rest of this unheard album were going to be special. I think i rolled down my windows on that wintery Michigan morning and screamed in delight. And it's 'been on' ever since and i always considered that that song and album saved the band for me
