The songs I love are Bat, You Took The Words, Heaven Can Wait and All Revved Up. The first side of BOOH I know, but has there ever been a stronger start to any album ever ?
Where All Revved Up is concerned I love the early live versions, the slow start, the monologues (Jim doing the early American Guitar / Wasted Youth speech and Meat's nonsense about being in on a Saturday night 'You look good man - you shouldn't be here !', much better than Todd's 'streamlined' version which was recorded for the album.
Of the later songs I love It Just Won't Quit, Objects, Rock and Roll Dreams, Its All Coming Back, The Future, Pigs, and No Matter What. Lots more than two, but if I have to pick a favorite it would be Bat, being 17, drinking in a rock bar, with the video blaring out ...
