Nothing as it Seems, not even close.

I've never seen the air leave a room more quickly than the two times I've gotten SoH at a show. The idea of this song is fine, but the end result is kinda boring. NAIS is going for something pretty similar, and succeeds on just about every level.

NAIS is easily a top 10 song. Probably top 6-8. But Sleight Of Hand is my favorite PJ song.

holy shit this is a tough one.
I guess I'll go with NAIS b/c it's a bit more well-rounded?

Most people are jerks with terrible taste.

Sleight of Hand, obviously.

Nothing As It Seems is the pinnacle of PJ and plays to everyone's strengths. SoH is strong too and both are a direction I'd like the band to further explore.

NAIS is my favourite song.

the worst part about Sleight of Hand is that it is followed by Soon Forget

Both songs are fantastic, but NAIS gets my vote.
