Given to Fly is awesome today
Im going to have to take my CD player

come crashing in
I cant wait
"Justice cannot be for one side alone but must be for both" Eleanor Roosevelt
There are so many favorites but heres some of mine to name a few: Don't Be Shy, Yellowledbetter, Present Tense, Long Road and Better Man. Of course I love all of PJ's songs, so these are just a few of my faves.
If being sane is thinking there's something wrong with being different....I'd rather be completely fucking mental.

Better man
RVM
Dissident (heaps of people don't give this song enough credit)

Etc, etc, etc, etc

I could go on and on................
Picking a favorite PJ song would be like picking which one of my children I like best. I won't have any children until July, but here are some that would top my list in no particular order.
Release, Garden, Immortality, Present Tense, In Hiding, Blood, grievance, Hard to Imagine, Low Light, I could go on and on and on and on and on...................
So that is how I learned the lesson that everyone is alone. And your eyes must do some raining if you are ever going to grow. But when crying don't help and you can't compose yourself. It is best to compose a poem, an honest longing or simple song of hope.
That is why I'm singing

5. Release

Prob left some out.
Short Answer: Dumb Question, you'll get heaps of long rambling boring lists that we love writing so they keep going and going and going....
‘‘If somebody said to me, in twelve years you’ll be in a band with your brother and two carrot munching geezers who don’t like football I would have said fuck off, I’m not joining the Bee Gees.’’
Right now, "Alive", "Black", "Rearviewmirror", "MFC", "Immortality", "Given To Fly", "Of The Girl", "Footsteps", "You Are", and "4/20/02" are my favorites.
I also find it interesting that some say that "Rearviewmirror" is a break-up song. I always thought it was about a rape victim trying to move on after the incident.
