I voted Buckle Up.

it was neck and neck between this and River Cross, but right now River Cross won out.

[evenslow]

the best full-band composition is clearly DOTC.

but Quick Escape and Buckle Up are right there.

This is tough.

I'm really torn between Who Ever Said, Alright, and Quick Escape.

The second half of Who Ever Said is already one of my favorite "rock" things this band has ever done. It gets an immediate replay.

Alright is lush, atmospheric and hits me in the feels. Parachutes was probably the last song that hit me this way.

Quick Escape is the entire band just firing on all cylinders. Jeff's bombass groove in the last 40 seconds is just amazing. Nice to finally hear Matt using the cymbals. This song seems like the obvious choice here.

However, I'll go with Alright for now.

Yes, cool vote for a cool song.

[Monkey_Driven]

It's Dance of the Clairvoyants. There are probably 3-4 other very good songs though.

The cooperation on DotC is really second to none.

I went with Comes Then Goes but Quick Escape is really close and I like Who Ever Said more and more with each listen.

[Anders]

SBWM and Retrograde with most votes in the worst song category, and 0 votes here. DotC and Quick Escape with most votes here, and the only two with 0 in the worst song category.

Seems like we have reached a conclusion.

[WaitingForBluey]

Not ready to vote yet, too many great songs. It's gonna be between

Who Ever Said
DotC
Quick Escape
Alright
Seven O'Clock
Buckle Up
River Cross

Oh wait, nevermind it's gotta be Quick Escape, no brainer

[Fattie_Vedder]

Can I vote for

Quick Escape
River Cross
Seven O’Clock
Alright
Who Ever Said
Buckle Up
DOTC

Simultaneously?

I can’t pick a favorite just yet. Seven O Clock, River Cross, Buckle Up, and Alright have been calling to me hard lately.

Quick Escape has really taken RM with a storm it seems. Hopefully it will be the third single.
