    they’re both trite and pretty awful, but Mercy is less awful.

    CT is catchy as fuck to me live (studio it sucks), no idea why. I can see why its hated but i remember how much this site hated Mercy in 12' (Mercy>OOMH)

    The Mercy "jam" bores the crap out of me live. It's so repetitive. I'd love it if a) someone would actually take a solo or b) they cut it down to album length.

    Love Mercy full band, love OOMH D&T, want to leave the show when Mercy goes into OOMH full band. So I picked Mercy. CT sounds like it was written by a 15 year old, its musically uninteresting, and I don't need to hear a grown adult who has written some incredible lyrics sing "come tomorrow we'll be good to go".

    Come Tomorrow is fucking terrible. I wish the album had one less song, rather than to include that hot garbage.

    Mercy. The live outro really helps. But I came around on it when he started doing it solo in 2017

    This. I thought it was the worst thing ever on first listen...it's 100% tolerable now. I can't seem to get into Mercy at all although I did like it the first time I heard it.

    Thinking about this a bit more and I'd love to hear a music-only version of both. Can anyone with skillz make that happen?

    Enjoy both but Mercy by a mile for me.

    I don't mind the lyrics the way many here do, the melody is absolutely gorgeous, and the last 1:40 or so (the instrumental piece/outro) is the best thing this band has put on tape in the studio in the last 15 years, IMO.

    Like the Dave solo versions of late for Mercy, with the new chord structure. The albums versions of both songs, I'd give a slight edge to Mercy. But both are probably bottom 10 songs for me.

    I’m in the minority that likes Come Tomorrow. I’m guessing Brandi and Dave might perform it at Pilgrimage this weekend. I think it will only solidify my feelings.

    Re: Mercy vs Come Tomorrow

    So after being in Hartford for Farm Aid yesterday i think it preference depends on if it is full band or not. Id rather hear come tomorrow with the full band because it's quicker and sounds better full band. Whereas full band mercy is way too long and goes into a pointless boring outro jam. However with dave solo or D&T i think mercy sounds much better and is quick.

    Mercy is a buzzkill at a show, but it's a good song. Come Tomorrow is a buzzkill at a show, and it's not a good song. That cheesy synth line during the chorus is embarrassing.
