    Definitely LBC in my opinion. I love the whole album. Some of the songs like 1/2 Full grew on me after a few listens. i sure wish Down had made it though.

    I've gotta go with Save You for the time being. Great anger in this song. It's cool to hear a song about caring for someone and goes beyond mush.

    This song fires me up.

    I'd have to say Save You or All or None.
    I shouldn't have to fight a battle I'll never win, just to lose those I've never had.
  • This is soooo unfair to have to only choose one song but so be it:

    CAN'T KEEP it's so beautiful and it gets me going!


    close contenders:

    Save You
    Get Right
    You Are

    Ghost
    All or None

    Clearly, Riot Act is a much better album.
    There are some unique, revolutionary sounds in Rito Act-some of the best writing they put together as well. All around a very nice piece.
    Binaural a must have access to CD at any given time in the car,..i just get these urges to hear like insigninigance, or nothing as it seems..
    Overall it just dosnent compare to Riot Act, in my humble opinion.

    I'm gonna go for Green Disease. It makes me want to airdrum all over the place.
    I like driving backwards in the fog, 'cause it doesn't remind of anything...

    SAVE YOU!!! by far...rockin' tune and emotional lyrics, can't get aby better than that..my friend and I have a dilema about the meaning..she thinks eddy's singing to a drug-addict friend but I think it's for a girl, wife..in short femmale...do you have any insight on that question?
