both great songs, but at one point i would have called given to fly one of their very best, and I wouldn't say that about NAIS.

Re: D3 Round 3al: Given to Fly vs. Nothing as it Seems
While I've always appreciated and enjoyed Given to Fly, I've also found it a bit overrated. It wore out its welcome fairly quickly for me. Its since come around again and I can feel things move when I hear it.
Bug Nothing As It Seems is just glorious. I've never tired of it. And it always moves me. I've never gotten bored with it. Time and time again, I get excited when it comes on. I look forward to hearing it. That opening gives me chills every time.
NAIS. Please and thank you.

I expected this thread to be pissing me off. I like Given To Fly (maybe even love the album cut) but NAIS has been a favourite for 15 years, now it is def top 2 and maybe even #1 for me.
NAIS, please go far this time.

GTF is a obviously a great song and a fan favorite, but NAIS is a personal favorite of mine that captures my favorite sound/mood from this band... one that they can rarely do anymore.

The studio take of GTF is a thing of beauty. NAIS is really interesting, the vibe is perfect. Normally, I think I'd say GTF, but whatever, I'll go NAIS. Why not? Both are top 25 PJ tunes.

Both very good songs, if not great. Nothing As It Seems is just better.

Re: D3 Round 3al: Given to Fly vs. Nothing as it Seems
Very tough one for me. Had to go GTF, since I still get mileage out of it. NAIS is a great song, but I only enjoy the odd live version. The studio version grates a little now.

As much as I love Nothing As It Seems, the studio version of Given To Fly is still the best song ever by anyone.

This deserves to be close, like, a one-vote margin. But NAIS for me!

Re: D3 Round 3al: Given to Fly vs. Nothing as it Seems
I could change my vote, but I feel like that would be wrong.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
