The forgotten song

I am not a person for requests. Shit, I am not even tacking along the American tour. (And they dont want to tour Europe it seems), but one song that is really underwhelmed and should be played more often is...

Other Side

Whats your song?

    A man can dream, right?
    "But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed by faceless men, well, fuckers, he still stands!"
    "No matter how cold the winter, there's a spring time ahead..."
    "'You're still alive,' she said.  Oh, and do I deserve to be?  Is that the question?  And if so...if so...who answers?...who answers?" 
    "I believe, and I believe 'cuz I can see our future days. Days of you and me."

    Love "Other Side".

    My dream is to see "Dead Man" performed as a duet by Ed and Jeff (as was done in 1998 at the Dead Man Walking Concert), but I know that will never happen.
    Otherwise, my PJ song "requests" aren't enormously rare or unusual. I don't mind the hits or common songs; I just appreciate hearing certain songs at certain points in my life when they are significant to me.
    "Somewhere in between / There and here / I got lost / I got scared..."

    Probably has something to do with the fact it was co-written by Dave Abbruzzese who played guitar on it. Would YOU like playing a song that was written by a guy who hasn't been in your band for over 20 years? It was supposed to be on Lost Dogs but ultimately left off. I don't know if there's a weird publishing royalty issue, or if it's just they're trying to distance themselves from it. Great song though.

    Would be moment by moment...I know there was a time when they played it constantly, but Red Mosquito is one of those for me. WMA. Brain of J.

    Would be easy to pick ones they have played less than 10 times but I think those above fit the bill for me as not being played as often in the last few years.

    Yes, Satans Bed... Tremor Christ. These songs are gold...

    I thought the rivalry kind of stopped with Dave. It would be a nice surprise though to open with Angel. The lyrics are superb. (Hymns of prayers...)
