    Re: Rank the Big Whiskey Songs

    First post, long time lurker, here goes!

    1. Squirm
    2. Lying In The Hands Of God
    3. Baby Blue
    (#27)
    4. Grux/Shake Me Like A Monkey
    5. Seven
    (Write A Song)
    6. Spaceman
    (Beach Ball)
    7. You and Me
    8. Funny The Way It Is
    9. Dive In
    10. Why I Am
    (Little Red Bird)
    11. Time Bomb
    12. Alligator Pie

    There we go. If you consider the bonus songs into the mix, the parenthesis designate where I'd probably put the bonus stuff.

    On initial listening I didn't care for Shake Me, Dive In, You and Me, or Alligator Pie that much, whereas I loved Squirm, Spaceman, Baby Blue and Time Bomb. Dive In has slowly climbed its way up my list and Shake Me Like A Monkey and You and Me I've really begun to enjoy thoroughly. Time Bomb I've really begun to dislike, mainly due to Dave's "Jesus" screaming.

    Alligator Pie is the only song that I don't truly care for, but I've been listening to it a lot and I think I may start to enjoy it more.

    Overall, a great album. No song is really disappointing. I know lots of people may say Big Whiskey isn't Big 3 material but I think Squirm, Seven, Shake Me, LITHOG, and Baby Blue all have potential to be fairly memorable and/or wanted songs in DMB's catalog.

    Re: Rank the Big Whiskey Songs

    in no way reflective of my opinion of the songs, i'm just offering up what Zune users are downloading...

    Funny is #19 overall
    Shake Me #22
    Lying #26
    Why I Am #27
    You & Me #28
    Dive In #29
    Spaceman #30
    Alligator Pie #31
    Baby Blue #32
    Seven #33
    Grux #34
    Time Bomb #35
    and Squirm #36

    the top 15 slots are all helb by Black Eyed Peas, who also hold number 1 in album downloads. Big Whiskey is still #2

    oh, and just to stay on topic:
    1. Alligator Pie
    2. Lying
    3. Seven
    4. Baby Blue
    5. You & Me
    6. Dive In
    7. Grux>Shake Me

    Re: Rank the Big Whiskey Songs

    It was really hard to rank these songs, because there is not one song on this album that I don't like.

    Grux - Just because of the meaning of the songs
    Why I am
    Shake Me Like a Monkey
    Lying In The Hands of God
    Baby Blue
    You and Me
    Spaceman
    Funny The Way It Is
    Dive In
    Time Bomb
    Alligator Pie
    Squirm
    Seven

    Re: Rank the Big Whiskey Songs

    i just sat here for 20 minutes at work and tried to do this, but i honestly cant. including the bonus disc, there's not a single song i would want to be ranked "last". i could just put it on iPod shuffle and be okay with order.

    For people who don't care for Alligator Pie that much, keep listening to it. You're bound to enjoy it...it's such a great tune

    I understand it's a song about Roi and it's beautiful and whatnot but I think it should have been on Dave's next solo album or something. It's a DMB record, not a Dave Matthews record. Give me more tunes with the whole band.

    All good songs, but "You and Me' and "Baby Blue" don't really fit the album as well as the others. I guess they're just soft closers.

    Re: Rank the Big Whiskey Songs

    It's crazy how different people rank these songs. Well here goes:

    MY LIST:

    01. Hands of God
    02. Seven
    03. Skworm

    First three tracks are up with my all time favorites in DMB's catalog. (For example, Bartender, #41, Dreaming Tree, Seek Up, Spoon, The Stone, etc.)

    04. Alligator Pie
    05. Baby Blue
    07. Time Bomb
    08. Grux>SMLAM

    These four are what I would still consider exceptional songs. They don't quite floor me but I do love them. (On par with songs like The Last Stop, Lie In Our Graves, What You Are, etc.)

    09. Why I Am
    10. Dive In
    11. Funny
    12. Spaceman
    13. You & Me

    The final five here I still really enjoy. Still though not earth shattering. (Would be grouped with songs like Crash Into Me, The Space Between, Stay, Busted Stuff, etc.)
