I really have grown to love each and every one of these songs over the years. Tusk is a master work. The only reason I had to chose What Makes You Think You're The One is it's jarring sequencing following Sara. I've always felt it's overly obnoxious to snap the listener sharply back awake after the dreamy Sara with that snarky drum intro. I fully realize that's the point, but it's never really been endearing to me.

That's Enough for Me
It's nearly impossible to make a decision. Just listened in Tusk in its entirety yesterday and was amazed.
For me it was a toss up between Save Me a Place and That's Enough for Me. Love them but slightly lesser than the others.

Default WMYTYTO - really?!?!?

wow, can't believe WMYTYTO is leading as the least favorite - one of the essential angry/hurt LB songs (this recent blog said it so much better than i ever could - http://www.fluxblog.org/page/2).

That's all for everyone is pretty bad, and much worse than other LB tusk songs, imo.

WATL, Tusk, and WMYTYTO are my favorites from Tusk. followed closely by the ledge, not that funny, and i know i'm not wrong.

I had to go with NTF - just bitter and no fun, unlike "The Ledge", which is at least bitter & bouncy.
I really like WMYTYTO - both the lyrics & Lindsey's vocal especially.

There's not a track I don't like on the whole of Tusk, but I went with NTF cause I find it's much better live. Punchier.

Aw, I love that one. Very Beach Boys-inspired, I'd like to hear him try something like that again.

Looks like we got 4 tied so far!

I don't see how people can like I Know I'm Not Wrong but not like Not That Funny when they are basically the same song

Thats All For Everyone is one of the very best on the album. I love all Lindsey's songs on Tusk. Still to this day his best group of songs on one album FM or solo (SYW and GOS are very close)

My vote is Walk a Thin Line. The only sub par song of his in the bunch.

wow! you and i seem to have completely opposite taste as far as lindsey's tusk songs go. for me, walk a thin line is the most beautiful ballad he ever wrote. (although i think it should be completely stripped acoustic, like different covers of it are).

But...but...but i love Save me a Place . I think the lyrics and music are brilliant together. I also love Not that Funny.

That's Enough for me is the most annoying song ever i think, though. Sounds like some agressive country music to me. "YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!", yeah, shut up, Lindsey.
