    There are SO MANY to choose from, and so many are awesome. "Leaving Here" is one of my absolute tops. The "It's Ok" tag is great, and I could hear Baba at every show and never ever get tired of it. The Vh1 Who Rock Honors "Love Reign O'er Me" blows my mind, and "Masters of War" (especially that first one from the Dylan concert) is just ridiculous. Ed did an awesome a cappella snippet of "I've Just Seen a Face" (I think in 95) that, happily, gets stuck in my head whenever I hear it. Ed covering "Open All Night" is also greatness. And I don't know if it counts as a real cover, but "Modern Girl" is another favorite; I sing that to my toddler when she's having a hard time and it calms her down...you can just sing it again and again and again.

    I personally enjoyed the PJ version of "25 minutes to go" from the Benaroya Hall show, also enjoy "I've got a feeling" and the "Dock of the bay" cover. "Patriot" is a good one also

    after i saw it again at Amsterdam 2.....

    this song,has a unique power in it..really can change the whole show,how u feel ,..
    has a unique power of sadness that leaves you alone and happy....the same time...

    My favorites:

    Waiting on a Friend
    It's OK
    Sonic Reducer
    Let My Love Open the Door
    Crazy Mary

    Ones I didn't care for:

    Everyday People
    Kick out the Jams (Especially when it ends the show...I dont get the same feeling I get from RITFW, YL, or Indifference)
    Mother (cool to hear something different, but not a good fit for Ed's voice IMO)
    New World (just not a song I like)
    There's Pearl Jam, The Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Robert Johnson......and then everybody else.

    Personally, I don't think PJs cover of Mother is better then Pink Floyd; however, I think it was a really simple song for them to play.
    Anyway, I really like Bob Dylan's Master's of Wa. When they sang it during the turbulance from the invasion of Iraq, it was simply awesome.

    I just heard "Can't Help Falling in Love" from Vegas 2000. It was absolutely breathtaking! :D

    I have that boot and your statement is 100% true.

    Have they ever done Crowded House's "Fall at Your Feet?" I'd love to hear Ed's rendition of that song!
