What Is The One Tweedy Song...


Recommended Posts

What is the one Tweedy song from ANY band or project he's done that you would use if a person said: "Gimme one reason this guy's music is so special to you."

 

I'll give this a week, maybe longer, and then add up the totals on it. I want to see what you all feel.

 

Keep in mind, any song of Jeff's will work: (Mermaid Ave, Wilco, UT, Minus 5 contributions, Golden Smog, Odd Job Jack, etc.)

 

I'll start: Jesus, etc.

This is going to make my head explode...too hard.

 

OK,since there's already a few votes for Poor Places,I'll vote for Ashes of American Flags.

I'm not trying to pick a fight here, but is any Mermaid Avenue song really valid for this discussion? I mean, I think an integral component of Tweedy's music is his lyrics and none of those songs would offer that.

 

Right now, I think I would go with Misunderstood. That's usually my litmus-test song when exposing new listeners to Wilco.
