There are two standards we could use:

1. Go by the recording of the song on the album at issue.

2. Go by the song on the album we like best even if the version we like best is not the studio recording but rather a live version or other alternate version of some sort.

For example, as my favorite from Under The Skin I would definitely choose "Shut Us Down" – if I go by the solo acoustic live version of the song. If I go by the studio version, I might pick a different song such as "Show Me How."

Same goes for "Big Love" on Tango In The Night (yes I will include Fleetwood Mac albums, with only the songs Lindsey sings eligible).

So please vote: #1 above or $2 above as the standard.

Then I'll post a separate thread.

Thanks.
why not post both threads? like you say, it may be very different songs, depending on whether live versions of album.

also, i think you should count itunes or amazon exclusives in album too, such as Seeds We Sow electric, or Sleeping Around the Corner itunes exclusive from 2011.
