Your White Whale Song?

    I've missed Of the Earth by one show probably 3-4 times now, and even had it crossed off the list before.  So I guess that would qualify under the "white whale" definition. 

    Other Side has been crossed off twice now at shows I've attended.  Damn Just Breathe and phony proposals. 

    Those are my two.  I have heard Fatal once and would definitely rather hear that one again before these two.

  • the only white whale "definition" is a song you'd love to hear live that you haven't.

    Nothing As It Seems. Good lord I hope I get it soon. 
    dude..u will love it..the song is from another planet
    I agree, D! I honestly think it's the most underrated song in the catalog. It always brings it on the record and in live settings.

    I had 3 white whales.   Sonic Reducer, Oceans and Breath.   In 2013 I got the latter 2.   I got my #1 white whale (Sonic Reducer) at Wrigley.

    I'm in this weird spot where I'm not sure I have one.  I have a few that would be nice.    Not heard the three songs above (especially sonic reducer) only made me want to hear it more.  So it's hard to replace a 20 year white whale like that.  My would be nice list:

    1) All Those Yesterdays
    2) Who You Are
    3) Love Reign O'er Me

    I could see All Those Yesterdays becoming my white whale.   It's the only full song I haven't heard live from Yield and it's my favourite album (I can live with out hearing the red dot song live.. .lol).    Similar with Who You Are.   I heard around the bend at a solo show, but I've never heard Who You Are ever at PJ or Eddie solo.    Love Reign O'er Me has now become on of my favourite Christmas Singles.  I'd love to get those 3.  I feel it's the last 3 songs from the first 5 albums, that I've never crossed paths with.

    I wish i was the souvenir you kept your house key on..
  • I'm not sure I've even got one anymore, but if I do, it's probably "Leash" - a song I hate, but it's the only one I'm missing from Vs.

    Otherwise, it was "Tremor Christ" and "Footsteps" for the longest time. Then I went to Spokane and got both of 'em.
