another that i wish i could hear again, but probably won't "guns and gasoline we're gonna save the world." how the hell do lyrics like that get passed up for something like "i would dig a hole all the way to china and back, unless of course i was there, and i'd dig my way home."?
On the subject of Joyride, so you think "the money is clean cause we scrub it good" are good lyrics?
i'm sure that there's some kinda meaning behind that right there, and more than likely political satire, but i can't quite put my thumb on it. i'm merely stating that songs such as joyride (which weren't written in like 20 minutes and were road tested) should have made the album before songs like dreamgirl and everybody wake up.

I always took that as a reference to big corporations like the Enron scandal scoundreling money and people being so money hungry, and the "scrubbing" is the justification of those heinous acts of self-interest.

yeah im pretty sure its political...scrubbing could also be laundering so maybe meaning that the US Gov't for example will cover up where they got their money? also the Enron thing and more laundering and greed, etc...i think joy ride is a very well written song lyrically and musically

The saxophone part in #41 after he says "oh but the difficulty's coming heeeeeeeeeeeere," and during, "I'm coming heeeeere./ Lonley waiting, etc." Around 1:10 and 2:23. So amazing.

6:03 of Don't Drink The Water: the "Meeeeyeeeaaaheeayah" thing he does that time gives me chills, especially the storytellers version.

2:25 Too Much: The "swirly" music in the solo

2:00 Proudest Monkey: The entire guitar solo

3:22 So Right: There's a rest, then it kicks back in with like a wall of guitar and keyboard.

3:56 Ants Marching: When they go to the Am, I get chills.

FF version of Two Step during the yell around 6:30 when he goes up an octave yaaaaaYEAHAHA

CP version of warehouse RIGHT when the nancie solo ends, and the guitar comes in for warehouse

FF Boyd solo on Ants (the part around 6:30 where he, for those of you who have the dvd, goes up on his toes and is all smiling)

Storytellers TB where during the short jam (intro riff) dave looks to the side and does a little "goo goo guk"

Gorge '02 proudest monkey, how dave says ... in a WAY those were my better days. i like the way he says it on that version


there are many more, but if actually read those and even remember any of that crap, i'm impressed
