rwilson580 Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Picking a least favorite song on Being There is tough. But I'm stunned that multiple people managed to single out "Was I In Your Dreams?". This must be an even stronger album than I remember..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, i think all of the Wilco albums, collectively, are greater than any single from the album. And this is the very reason they are one of my favorite bands. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
