bleedorange Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I can only think of 5 Wilco songs that I'd say "I do not like": - Shake It Off- Walken- Hate It Here- You Never Know- Sonny Feeling I don't dislike any of those. Although none of them are near my favorites list. Plus, my daughter loves "You Never Know," so the chance to hear her sing it makes it a song I play often. And "Sonny Feeling" and "Deeper Down" are two of my favorites from WTA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
choo-choo-charlie Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I enjoy Deeper Down through my headphones. Live, it was a complete show stopper, and I don't mean that in the good sense.

The Inside of Outside Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I would never tell a Wilco fan what songs to like or dislike, but the love and number of posts on this thread dedicated to The Lonely 1 is a bit baffling to me. There is no question I believe it should be left off BT, never requested in concert and generally forgotten.This is crazy talk.And I've just gotta say that Hotel Arizona is maybe the coolest-sounding song in the Wilco catalogue. I NEVER tire of hearing the jam-out after the last vocal...amazing.Sanity restored to the board! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
radiatortunes Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 The Lonely 1 is outstanding. I love that it puts Being There on pause for a moment, creates just enough of a rest and offers a beautiful change of pace before the explosion that is Dreamer in My Dreams. The set from the KFOG radio session in 1997 has a lovely version of the tune with some nice piano work from Jay Bennett and some nice brush work on the drums from Ken Coomer. Thanks for pointing out that version. It really is quite lovely, as is the show's next track, "Far, Far Away". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

An old demo of Monday with some very bad lyrics! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGfpnr0prtU&feature=related Wow, I'd never heard that before. I clicked on honestly expecting it to be the slow version of Monday from the second DVD in the I'm Trying To Break Your Heart documentary, but that demo does sound pretty legit. Hope more like it will surface one day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shug Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I listened to disc 1 last night, and disc 2 this morning. Disc 1 is far and away the best of the two, the 2nd disc is far too patchy imo. Its not crap by any means, just think that they could have added sunken treasure, someday soon, the lonely 1 and maybe dreamer in my dreams and given us a wonderful single disc album. I understand the view that double albums should be respected in their entirety, but I also find it fun to whittle down even the ones I love to a tight single disc with a new running order. Here's my first stab at a single disc version of Being There. I considered putting Sunken Treasure as the album closer, it does make a nice final statement and sets a reflective mood for the send off, but it also sounds good in the middle of the record, I think. I like to open a record with a couple strong rockers, but its hard to not hear Monday and Outtasite at the end like at so many concerts. Its just an exercise in fun, anyway, not to be taken too seriously.

choo-choo-charlie Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Same lyrics I think...first and second verses reversed Mostly the same - listen a little closer. There are a few subtle differences, including "momma just-a give me a break" after the lyric about cutting class, and "sittin' on the dock of the bay" at the end.
