    I won't make the poll for this (maybe one already exists) but which one wins:
    Help, Help or Bu$hleaguer?

    Listen to the Adelaide boot from 2003 and you'll know why it has to be yes!!! An underrated gem!

    It's pretty crazy that this has been placed once since the Riot Act tour and that was PJ20

    i agree fully that they should play songs. Lots of songs. In lots of locations. Specific songs are not necessary. just.... songs. maybe some new songs? lots of older songs. and then, later, some more songs.

    I wish they would play more off Binaural and Riot Act.

    It's the "tell me lies" pre-chorus bits that I always disliked. I always figure this is gonna come next (it's supposed to start at 2m but I don't think it's working right):

    Absolutely; such a brilliant, quirky song. Akin to Low Light, in many ways.

    One of the most forgettable of the band's entire catalog. Liked it when it came out, but the song is not good. I'd probably go to take a leak if they busted this one out.

    I respectfully disagree my friend. Love this song. I hope they bust it out, polish it up a bit and bring it along this tour! Love the lyrics, the quirky grooviness and it has some mccready face melting moments. What more could we ask for?

    The version from Adelaide 2003 is so good. And the whole band seems to be really into it. I would love to hear this song live.

    Great song and seems to fit.

    Sure...play it at one of the Wrigley shows. I envision standing in line for a beer or taking a leak and hearing it in the background...

    There are songs I try to get into that just don't do it for me. I try new versions of them live but they don't move me...

    At least I'm trying.

    no, i think this might be the worst song, in my opinion, on any PJ album. never liked it at all. way below PJ standards for me.

    the worst song award goes to "you are" although help help is probably in the top five.

    I find Get Right and Evacuation to be far more forgettable. This one, particularly the last minute of it, rocks. Fo sho.
