Ten favourite Michael Green songs
 

Inspired by recent threads, I'll give it a try.
Independent of performance, production etc, these are my favourite M.G. compositions (in no particular order):

Loser Two Times
Time For Me To Go
Woman Don't
Bullet In The Sky
Cryin' Won't Bring You Back
Big Boy Now
It's Gonna Be Me
Last Train To San Antone
Shining Star
Carry My Love

Yeah, I know.. :laugh: Peter can turn anything into gold.

Wow this one might require a bit of thought, I'll have to go back and check all the songs that Mike Green wrote and get back to you!

I don't know about top ten, but I think the best song Michael ever wrote is Baby, When The Sun Goes Down. The words are great, so is the tune, and it's not until the last verse that you realise you're listening to the suicide note of a man soon to hang himself. I find it a very moving song, delivered as it is with Peter's soulful voice.

Is he killing himself though? Or is he being hung for murder?

I suspect the latter:
"Had your life in my hands
And baby when the sun goes down
please understand
That it was love and jealous rage
Baby when the sun goes down
I'll have to pay"

The last word (pay) implies being punished (hung)

Interesting - I guess I've never paid much attention to the lyrics, but it seems it turns out to be a kind of murder ballad! :laugh:

Peter is doing a great job both on vocal and guitar.
