God, man.... these are all good to great. I'm going with Small Town. It's just one of those songs that continues to resonate in me, even after all these years. If it's possible, it's maybe even gotten better in my estimation as time as gone on. I just adore it.

But FUCK RVM is another heavy-hitter. And I have no problem seeing it take the victory. I'll be a tad disappointed (and surprised) if Dissident pulls this out. But it should get a few votes at least.

Small Town.
this is exactly where i am.

I'll give "Dissident" one of its few votes. I've always thought it was one of the best songs on Vs., hidden beneath what many view as a sort of corny midtempo alt-rock arrangement.

Dissident is awesome. Ed hits some crazy notes on that thing.

I voted Dissident too, the bridge is one of my favourite musical pieces in the band's catalogue.

There is some subtle riffing going on behind the verses as well that my ears always gravitate toward. More musically sophisticated than it lets on, this song is.

I love Dissident and think it doesn't get nearly the respect it should, but I had to vote for RVM.
