my favorite of all time, first ballot rock and roll hall of fame guarantees, they are amazing.
I'd have to say that my favorite song is "If I could give all my love to you." It's so good.
So OOT, what's yours??
Holiday in Spain, sentimental reasons.

I went through most of their catalogue before posting my answer. Well, I didn't reach a conclusion, it's either Anna Begins or Raining in Baltimore followed by A Long December.

A long december is a great choice as well. I am not nearly as into CC as I used to be, but right as my interest was beginning to wane I was really getting into the song Recovering the Satellites(as opposed to the whole album). Those first 2 albums were just so [censored] good I couldn't helped but be disappointed by every one that succeeded them.

Yeah, they fell apart for me too after Recovering the Satellites. I got back into them again a little after Films about Ghosts was released, but only now give August and Everything After and Recovering the Satellites the rare listen.

I'm not a fan, but they have some really good songs,
Rain King, Anna Begins or Einstein Down on the Beach if I had to choose.
Special mention to Duritz's solo act and his cover of Carmalita.
August and Everything After and Third Eye Blinds - Blue album are/were serious guilty pleasures of mine, and actually both are excellent albums no matter what.
Probably Long December or Hangin' Around

you can say you don't like the sound of his voice, but cannot refer to him as "no-talent". i dont like elton john's voice, but i recognize him as a very gifted singer nonetheless.

Ahh, my favorite band. It'd be impossible to name just one favorite, but a few songs I love would be:
- The Acoustic version of Have you Seen Me Lately on their "Live from NY" Disc << If I was forced to pick one, this is probably it
- Acoustic version of Capapult from the same CD
- Goodnight Elisabeth
- Amy Hit the Atmosphere
- Why Should You Come When I Call?
- Anna Begins
And a few of my favorite covers they do:
- Caravan (Van Morrison)
- The Ghost in You (The Psychedelic Furs)
- Live Forever (Oasis)
What a great band. They are so good in concert - hope they go back on tour soon. It's been a while. They're actually playing a show in LA tonight with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, but I'm on the wrong coast.

okay....maybe youre right....I'll re-evaluate...
hold on...still evaluating....
no...I was right the first time. Adam whats-his-name is a whiney-ass no-talent poser, and to compare him to Elton John is ridiculous.
