    This song is not even in my top 5 for that record.
    Not even my favorite slow jam on that record

    It is a fucking awesome song - on an incredibly awesome album.
    You are dead to me.  ;)

    Agreed. Always been top 5 for me but over the past few years has consolidated as their best. There’s many reasons why I love it but both studio and live are just out of this world. Melbourne 98 is one of the best if you’ve never heard it. 
    Melbourne #1 '98
    Melbourne #2 '03
    Melbourne #3 '03
    Melbourne #1 '06

    Absolutely amazing song that brings me in to the zone when I listen to it. I just checked my play counts and Benaroya Hall is hands down the leader for my go to version. I do love the Melbourne '98 one though. I could probably play I Got ID, Not For You and Immortality on repeat forever from that era.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Seattle II was awesome. I remember I was itching to get beer. Just before they started playing it... I was teetering on making the trek. Of course, I waited. I left right after (the perfect time to go given I'd need 4 songs to get back- I'm Open, Unthought Known, Can't Deny Me).

    The stars were aligned for me that great night.

    Admittedly, I much prefer the live versions to the fade out at the end of the studio version.

    ...and of course the often-added intro.
