I have said before how much I love "How Long" but for me it doesn't even come close to the masterpiece that "Waiting in the Weeds" is!It's like poetry set to music! Therefore...
I cast my vote for "Waiting in the Weeds" for the win!

I cast my vote for "Waiting in the Weeds" for the win!
I love both songs but Waiting in the Weeds is my favorite of the two.
I gotta vote for How Long. I love em both, but How Long is the ONLY song close to country that can make me actually WANT to get up and Texas two step!
My vote is for How Long for the win. I love both songs but I my favorite of the two left is How Long...
Oh My I love both! WITW is special for me, because I just started to cry when they played it live. And How Long is just such a great song and a great start for the show.
I cast my vote for Waiting In The Weeds for the win!
Let somebody love you, before it's too late..
I, like everyone else here, love both of these songs and these are the two songs I had hoped it would come down to. But it comes down to this, the day my LROOE cd arrived, on the day it came out, and I popped disc 1 into the cd player, I couldn't forget that song! As Dreamer put it, it was very "Eagley" to me, and I said to myself they really are back!!! Top it off with that song being the opener to the live shows and the goosebumps and tears it gave me from the first note seeing it live, it just seems like the obvious choice to me. I don't care who wrote it, I know who sings it better than anyone else ever could.
I vote for How Long
He sings it high, he plays it low
I vote for Waiting In The Weeds to win.
you better put it all behind you, baby, 'cause life goes on
you keep carrying that anger, it'll eat you up inside--
Waiting in the Weeds IS poetry set to music. The lush imagery, the perfect harmonies, and Don's amazing vocals make this my obvious choice.
I vote for Waiting in the Weeds for the win.
OMG - I've got a feeling this is going to be another nailbiter. Very fitting, I guess, but still very nerve-wrecking!!!

Well interestingly enough we are down to the same two songs which made it to the wire last year as well. And it is a hard choice to make. Waiting in the Weeds is indeed a masterpiece and is in a class of its own with its flowing lyrics, constantly changing imagery and subtle harmonies. It was indeed a thrill and a priviledge to hear it performed live earlier this year. However, I HAVE to vote 'HOW LONG' for the win. Quite simply, it has always been one of my favourites from the album. It has a real 'feel good' sound to it and always makes me smile and puts me in good humour. I also love the video to it, but what really clinches it is that is is the song which opened the first and long looked forward to gig of the LROOE tour. I will never forget the feeling of total exhileration I had when the band struck up with it and Glenn started singing it. It was like 'I can't believe I am here, 10 feet away from them (him!!) ......and I am going to enjoy every minute of this.' Every time I have heard it since it has brought me right back!!
I can only vote
'How Long' for the win
'I must be leaving soon... its your world now'
