It seems that Landslide is Stevie's refelective remember song.... However,
in the same vain of "type" of song -- what about "Save Me A Place" for Lindsey?
I see sooo much on YouTube with indie bands doing this song.... Seems like SMAP tends to relate.... But has never pushed thru to the mainstream....
So question being.... What song would you propose to be THE Lindsey song competing with/complemeting to Landslide?
And I thank you in advance for my babbling I'm just in the mood.......
I'm sorry, but GYOW is the classic Lindsey song to me. Others may not agree, and it is not MY favorite song, but it is the single-most recognizable of all his songs, aside from the intro of NGBA or the chorus from "Holiday Road." I believe the guitar work on ISA and "Big Love" live have become classic staples, but GYOW is a rock anthem.

I'm not sure I understand how it is hard to sing-along to, but everyone is different. To be honest, when I think of contemplative/reflective song I go in the route of ISA. Personally, for me, it is far morese than "Bog Love." And ISA is a stunning work of art. I consider it epic.

It's so interesting to pose a question like this and I appreciate it so. It makes one think: what is THE Lindsey song, as opposed to what is my personal favorite song of his.
