    I'd say crush. The album version is a musical masterpiece.

    The Last Stop. Nothing beats that climax in the live show.

    Close second is The Stone.

    When I think of best I assume you mean songwriting: You Never Know, The Stone, Typical Situation, Warehouse ... basically any of those imo and many others that are right around that level

    Wow that's such a tough question. I can give a top 5 in no particular order.

    The Stone
    Two Step
    #41
    Typical Situation
    Ants Marching

    This list probably changes weekly too.

    The more I think about it, I can probably list 10-15 songs that float in and out of my top 5

    I could make a case for every song on BTCS. But, The Stone is my pick. Is there anyone who doesn’t like that song?

    What do you think the band’s answer would be? I’d say maybe DDTW

    Dave's answer would probably be Jimi Thing unfortunately.

    Rashawn - SMLAM or TGIY because he can tell dynamics to go fuck themselves
    Buddy - Bayou. He gets a 8 minute standing ovation everytime they play it.

    Boyd - Christmas Song

    Will never understand the hate for Jimi Thing. Absolute classic, always was my favorite part of the concerts I saw.

    If I had to pick a song that represented all the best parts of the band in one song, it's Crush.

    It's a rare song that has universal appeal to. Even those who don't like DMB will typically be cool with Crush. And obviously the opposite end of the spectrum loves it to. Really hard thing to do.

    It wasn't so bad in 2022 because they overhauled the outro, but the covers got a little annoying.
