easy vote for Kashmir. For Your Life is pretty good, though. For better or worse it's your standard LZ mid tempo number, which makes it solid but also doesn't help it stand out. A by the numbers song, but as numbers go they are good ones.

Wow, I expected to be alone on this one. Kashmir has worn on me; it's gotten monotonous, over time.

As tired as I am of hearing it, no other song captured my imagination back in the day like Kashmir.

I like both a lot, but I'm voting for "For Your Life" since like LV I have a strange allegiance to "Presence," and "Kashmir" has always been slightly tainted by the fact that I first became familiar with it through that awful Puff Daddy song from "Godzilla."

"Kashmir" is a classic, but yeah, I gotta go with PRESENCE here.

Victory is an awesome song, especially the Nine Inch Nails remix (yeah that’s a thing).

Kashmir gets my vote.

Unpopular music opinion, but I kinda think Kashmir is boring. I'm not sure it makes my top 20 LZ list.

Kashmir is sort of like PJ's Alive at this point: Nowhere near my favorite song, but its brilliance is pretty tough to argue with.

Same, but I still can't put For Your Life ahead of it.

The "coquette coquette coquette" part alone is better than all of Kashmir. And Kashmir is awesome.
