Only Zip City would vote against Santa Fe with all those other tracks out there!! You should get banned again for that!

[Gator McKlusky]

Santa Fe is the best song on the record! Zip! Really?

clams
you kinda suck.
santa fe is my favorite. what the hell does 'best' mean anyway?
but
if santa fe was released as a single, a 45 ( as we called it back in the day...), without the entire album...
we would grow tired of it. it might be less memorable or moving.
albums tell stories.
they are like jd salingers nine short stories.
they are a collection of pieces making a whole.
albums are like families. each member brings something to the table.
i would never rank my family.
my daughter is the best athlete and most kind
my son is the most passionate and creative
my husband is the hardest working
my dog is the coolest on the planet
i am the biggest pain in the ass
etc.

i know you are just having fun. you create excellent topics. i dig it.
but i won't play. boo.

i enjoy the math element though, but only when i am drunkish.
in the morning, the math hurts my head.

carry on! it's all good

Shut your mouth and get your ass on the plane, Joelle. Just pick a friggin' song!

[Zip City]

I'm not voting against Santa Fe because it's the "worst" song on the record, I'm just trying to even the playing field a bit so it doesn't run away with the lead.

That said, it's in the bottom 1/2 of the songs on the record (for me).

[Clams]

To encourage Joelle's participation, I have changed the name of the thread from Best Song to Favorite Song.
