    Some are seriously questionable. ABI, Squirm and WAYG under EWU.... Plus, True Reflections isn't DMB

    Well there's certainly a lot of headscratchers in there, but the that fact that jimi thing is #139 is absurd.

    YMDT is way too low. Cigarette lit is way too high

    Sleep to Dream her that high? Higher than Last Stop?

    Ants Marching below FTWII?!!

    Get real.

    Summation: Your list sucks.

    Break Free is too high and Jimi Thing at 139 is a joke.

    Angel above Good Good Time and Idea of You...... isn't this a criminal offense in some states?

    To the OP - you should expect to get shot down with all of your personal preferences in public view like this

    It's hard to rank dmb songs especially the really good ones and the really bad ones but definitely some questionable decisions in this ranking

    Dodo at #41 - this should be in the top 20
    Captain at #67 - this should be in the top 10

    Jimi Thing at #139? We may be tired of it live, but it’s a classic DMB song. I’m not sure why it’s so low.

    Crash at #101, also seems very low for this one.

    Granny at #87 - should also be in the top 20.

    Jane at #74 - should also be in the top 20.

    'should be'

    We can express our surprise at the rankings, but not dictate our tastes to others. For sure some of those are crazy to see, but Granny wouldn't make my top 20, I can see why people aren't into Dodo - it was bottom half for me till recently. And Captain ain't anywhere near my top 10.

    I'm surprised, and maybe he genuinely needs to reconsider some, but as someone pointed out it's subjective.

    I was intrigued until you had Sleep To Dream Her before both The Last Stop and Say Goodbye. And A Dream So Real before Ants Marching, Shotgun, Drive In..., Rhyme & Reason... And then you had Plastic Girl ahead of... well... anything else. To each his own, but this is not the way my list would go. Grey Street before Pig? And Spoon? Buddy... nooooooo.

    OP Must be referring to "like a hurricane" which is a Neal young song that Dave covered once or twice by the way.

    :edit

    I guess Dave did write something called hurricane but it was at a private party or something. Whatever it shouldn't be ranked that high anyway.
