Just wondering. You have to take them both.

Oh god. Oh god.

I guess you could say everyone album needs a filler song...It really depends on what surrounds the two songs...

Honestly, I think I'll take the Shotgun.

I desperately want a studio production of Shotgun, even if I have to put up with Can't Stop.

Shotgun Can't Stop.

Shotgun > probably > #27

Cornbread is not very much better than Can't Stop.

Brutal fucking poll. I went with #27 and Cornbread, but as soon as I clicked it I doubted my decision. I really don't know.

Well, we need to know what surrounds the two songs. Same songs excluding what you vote against?

Still taking Shotgun I think.

Good thing it probably won't work out like this poll makes it. Thank goodness.

I can put up with Can't Stop. If you had just put Shotgun up against #27 and Cornbread, I would still pick Shotgun. Who knows though, maybe they'll rework the lyrics to Can't Stop.:rolleyes

Shotgun/Can't Stop, fairly easily. Honestly, Can't Stop can be done right in the studio. It has that smoking room cool to it that, if it gets a lyrical revamp, can be done really well. And it doesn't really need too much more. Dave can just play bass chords, since Fonz is playing lead. Butch can hold down the back end with a Wurlitzer-esque groove. Add a horn section, a bridge, and bam: you have a passable, B- studio song.

Blah, Lewis! I thought that you thought Shotgun was overrated?! Am I mistaken, or is Cornbread that bad?

But hey, if you feel the need to give them a crutch, go for it.

Probably #27 and Cornbread, just out of my hatred for CS.

I'll deal with Can't Stop being on there due to the fact that Shotgun is just too good to pass up.

I went with Shotgun and Can't Stop....despite my hatred for Can't Stop but I could actually see the song evolving into a decent song in the studio.

Give me another example of a B- song.For me, personally? IIHIA, OOMH. I can generally enjoy both, but would never clamor for either.

And you have to know, unless I have an absolute hate for a song, my rankings don't really go lower than C. :lol So I guess my B- is another person's C-. But whatever.

Easily Shotgun and Can't Stop. #27 is lame and boring, and Cornbread just kinda sucks...

Shotgun is very overrated, but still a very good song. Can't Stop isn't great but I can tolerate it. As Brendan said, I can see this making a passable studio song.

Cornbread and #27.

Cornbread is a solid and enjoyable song, and #27 is very worthy of a spot on the album.

As much as the music is bound to sound great on Shotgun, I don't have much faith in Dave writing great lyrics for this song. When he does sit down and write them, he really needs to let go of the vocal melody/screaming that he always stuck to during the tour.

Can't Stop is a lost cause. That song is the more retarded brother of Smooth Rider.

#27 and Cornbread. I think that Shotgun could be just as awesome if it becomes a song like granny, where they work on it but decide to leave it off the album. But then again, it would be awesome if Shotgun was on the album...

Shotgun >>> Cornbread > #27 > Can't Stop

#27 is much better than Cornbread both musically and lyrically, maybe not as much fun but still.

I think that's the point. You either get 2 really good songs, or one great song and one crappy song.

haha its really not cool that one of those two scrub songs has to be there, but im a huge 27 supporter and prefer cornbread to cant stop- when dave isnt hitting falsetto at all, cant stop is one of the worst songs ever!

Unlike everyone else here, I kinda like Can't Stop but i think Shotgun, while a nice song, is the most overrated tune ever.

27 and Corn Bread got my vote, easily.

Shotgun and #27.

The other two can be left off the album if it will free up space.

I really love both Shotgun and Can't Stop. I don't see why everyone hates Can't Stop, its one of my personal favorites. The lyrics yes are a bit corny, but it adds to the cheesy romance format that the song has. Shotgun personally I hated when I first heard it. Then after five or six listens, it has become one of my favorites. #27 would also be awesome, that song is fricken sweet. I'm not totally sure about Cornbread though, I've only heard the Radio City version so maybe its better full band, or live. Whatever they put on the album I think it'll be awesome!
DMB0715

not that i want to agree, but look at the difference between lillywhite session version of raven and the busted stuff version...


shotgun is awesome, can't stop is ok... i think no matter what their album will have cornbread & #27 on it. they love those songs

Can't Stop really isn't that good. It bores me.
Cornbread is fun to listen to and Rabbit, the Piedmont version with the band is better that Radio City.
#27 is a pretty cool song and shotgun is shotgun

but i went with cornbread with #27
i'd rather have 2 good songs than a overrated good song and a crappy one

Ok the combo of Cornbread and #27 is better. Even though they are great enough already to maybe not need studio versions. Although I'd love a #27.

Shotgun is going to be amazing on an album.

I really like Can't Stop...but it doesn't need a studio version. That's what Smooth Rider is for

i think #27 (unless it gets a jam) is just as bad as can't stop. So i vote for shotgun, etc. Though I think Cornbread could be badass in the stud.

Tough poll --- I picked #27/Cornbread because I think they reveal DMB's future over the next few years. Shotgun is still my favorite song of the poll choices, however. I'd rather enjoy the versions we currently have of Shotty rather than take a gamble on an album containing the likes of Can't Stop :BANG

Can't Stop could be good if Dave expanded the lyrics.
I think your right and if I remember correctly he didnt have much of a role in the song guitar wise, so its quite possible that it could evolve into a good song...atleast decent.

Jon, this is a great poll topic. You have shotgun...a great great song and then can't stop which is more of a filler/segue ish song. but on the other hand you have two solid songs in #27 and cornbread.
I chose shotgun and can't stop just because I love shotgun that much.
