I think I'm gonna go with Ledbetter by a narrow margin over 1/2 Full. I like 1/2 Full a lot and have felt like it can be short changed around these parts, but Ledbetter is classic and it hasn't worn itself out on me over the years (probably because I just don't listen to it too much).

All the nice things said about Inside Job in the previous page make me feel so happy inside.

All the talk about In My Tree being overrated is gibberish when compared to PJ's most overrated song, Yellow Ledbetter. I mean, it's ok n'all, but geesh, talk about something being overrated, this is it.

it is only 4 votes ahead of 1/2 full, a mid tier song. You can hardly say it's overrated

After listening to YL and 1/2 Full I've decided to change my vote to 1/2 Full. The last minute or so slays. :bammer:

Me too. I listened to it twice last night. YL is a great song. But it's grown stale. 1/2 Full still packs a punch.

Vote changed.

Just one more mind to sway. Who's a likely candidate?

Sad to say, I think this one ends as it is. But 1/2 Full put up a helluva fight.

Are you serious? I mean RM may not overrate it, but there is a reason it closes 90% of all PJ shows. Fans love it, both die hards and casual fans. It gets as much love as any "best of" PJ song...meaning it's as popular as Even Flow, Corduroy, Alive, Betterman, Daughter, etc...

I think there should be a line drawn between "generally overrated" and "RM-overrated". RMoverrated.

I need to start advertising this on the pit so we can get some people with sensible taste voting here.

"Yellow Ledbetter" is very obviously better than "1/2 Full"
