I don't like either song. bushleaguer has excellent music but that spoken word is so irritating, and the lyrics are incredibly disappointing. So SoH, I guess.

It took me a while to really appreciate sleight of hand, it clicked last year and it's fucking great.

It took a while for me to get into SOH as well. I think it clicked for me sometime after the 2003 tour. I revisited Binaural, and was mesmerized by it.

Team Bushleaguer. Al Gore must have been the other vote.

You guys are bonkers. SOH is a towering achievment, just beautiful. One of PJ's absolute best.

Bu$hleaguer with a full vocal melody and reworked lyrics would have top tier potential.

I so wish they would do this. I really want to be able to appreciate that music in all its glory.

Didn't Jeff say they recorded a version with Ed singing? Maybe we'll hear it when (if) they ever re-release RA.

Bushleaguer is one of my favorite musical pieces by the band, and I like Ed's first verse and the choruses, but overall it's not a favorite.

Sleight of Hand gets closer to being my favorite PJ song every time I hear it.

SoH, but man do I love the tuneage of Bu$hleaguer.

That vote required 2 full listen-throughs.
