barbkm Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 I love the slide guitar in Walken after "I was singing this song about you." And the guitar and drum at the end of the song. Screams in Dreamer in My Dreams Voice Crack in Via Chicago "Ahhhh Assassin Down the Avenue" Emotion in "Let's let the world just take it's shape." "If it's just yer heart, talkin..." When all three guitars come together in Impossible Germany "Ok alright, Ok alright" (popular one) "I just do as I am told." "I've no idea how this happens." Guitar that opens Sunken Treasure Piano in I Am Trying to Break Your Heart Weird sound in Company in My Back that sounds like the aliens in Signs. (Not a musician, so I don't know the correct terms for anything.) "Under Your Bended Knee" "Waiting for you lips to break apart into words" "The rain applauds" I could go on and on and on Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hazel Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 the way jeff sings 'nova' in BBN johns bass in BBN ken drums in 'far far away' anytime jeff sings falsetto and the face he makes jeff smiles inbetween singing lines,...makes me smile too, i love his smile jeff solo singing blondies 'dreaming' i know he did it more than once..i especially love the one where he sounds stoned,..sings it real slow, i think its from one of the lounge ax shows, i wish i could post a link to it. all of 'reincarnation' Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JAK2112 Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 The outro of "Less Than You Think" (am I gonna get flack for this?) No way your getting flack for this. Sometimes, i listen just to the last line and the whole outro, especially when im in a stressful situation and need to clear my head. Its really therapeutic. Question: do people like the original instrumental coda of "Muzzle of Bees," including the very last sliding chord, better on record or as done by Nels live now? I prefer the live version, Nels' solo is way better, and it sounds bigger live, though thats true with many Ghost is Born songs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Reedo Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 In the live version of Late Greats, Nels does this really awesome jangly guitar thing during the second verse. I never really noticed how awesome it is until a few weeks ago. Hell is Chrome Solo The build at the end of the live version of sunken treasure- there's some wild noise coming from either Nels or Mike, tres cool! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gepman Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 You Are My Face: Guitar Break and Jeff's next verse of lyrics... gives me goosebumps... Handshake Drugs: the bass line throughout the song... A Shot In The Arm; live -> screaming "anymore"... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
froggie Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Nels on the lap steel at the end of Airline, when played live. and Ken going ballistic on the drums on the studio version. "says i havent gone too faaaaaaaaaarr" and the following guitar solo in VC and that part in Kamera after Jeff sings "no one knows how far, i've driven in the dark". that little drum part sounds so forceful and peaceful at the same time Quote Link to post Share on other sites
choo-choo-charlie Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 the "hidden" ending to "pot kettle black" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
a-me-with-a-you Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Side With The Seeds: Right after Tweedy sings "so why side with anything", Nels' guitar comes in, and it speeds up really fast and goes over in a bitchin' solo. Of course the guitar solo at the end is longer but this one takes the cake when it comes to making my blood boil. Ashes of American Flags "Kicking Television" version: one of my favorite Nels Cline solo's after all the lyrics 've been sung. Absolutely face-melting and spine-tingling. Theologians "Sunken Treasure" version: I love this stripped down version, especially the lazy pace of the intro and the warm sound of the single guitar. Jesus, Etc: just about in any live version and the studio version, the part where Jeff Sings "you were right about the stars" kicks so much butt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JessieOK Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 thought of another one that's got me listening to I Must Be High quite a little bit as of late- "Now your pissed that you missed, the very last kiss, from my lips..." It's not only the words, but the way Jeff delivers them. It comes out so effortless, almost like an afterthought. I just really dig it. Oh, and the part in HMD when you get to imagine Glenn twirling his sticks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smells like flowers Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 The heartfelt nostalgia of this line: "I miss the innocence I've known, playing Kiss covers, beautiful and stoned" Jeff's voice cracking throughout "One Hundred Years From Now" (on Return of the Grievous Angel Graham Parsons tribute) The VERY first Wilco songI ever heard! It was love at first listen. And the rest is history... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
