    1 How Long
    2 Busy Being Fabulous
    3 What Do I Do With My Heart
    4 Guilty of the Crime
    5 Waiting in the Weeds
    6 No More Cloudy Days
    7 Do Something
    8 You Are Not Alone
    9 Long Road out of Eden
    10 Somebody
    11 Last Good Time in Town
    12 Business as Usual

    Maybe it's easier to make the point by listing what I would omit:

    1 No More Walks in the Wood
    2 I Don't Want to Hear Anymore
    3 Fast Company
    4 I Dreamed There Was No War
    5 Frail Grasp on the Big Picture
    6 I Love to Watch a Woman Dance
    7 Center of the Universe
    8 It's Your World Now

    And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    I have a question, and I believe that we have discussed this once before, maybe in Survivor for LROOE and I don't really remember everyone's reasoning, but why is it that only a couple of us here have put Fast Company on our short lists? I personally think it's a catchy tune and kinda funky but apparently I am a minority here. Anyone...?

    11. Center Of The Universe
    12. Do Something

    My song choices are in no particular order. If I could add 2 bonus songs, I would add You Are Not Alone and No More Cloudy Days. I definitely love all of the songs that they do live but I know that I left off NMCD from my list. It's a great song and I love to hear it live but the only reason that I chose Do Something over it is because during the last few months DS has really hit home with me. As some of you know, my uncle passed away unexpectedly a few months ago and when my cousin and I were having a deep conversation about her dad and all that had happened, this song came on. We both stopped talking and just listened to the lyrics. I know that the lyrics really touched my cousins heart after just losing her dad and it touched mine as well.

    Well, to break it down for me - Falsetto = fail!

    I just don't get into the whole falsetto thing. This is 2007 - the BeeGees haven't been on top of the charts for a long time!

    And obviously, the guys love the falsetto, too! Glenn's been digging it since 1984. I just speak for myself when I say that to me, falsetto takes voices that are distinctive, textured, and emotive and turns them into voices that are generic, strained, and dated-sounding.

    I agree to a point with Soda. However, I love the falsettos in Witchy Woman and One of These Nights, especially WW. Fast Company's melody with the falsetto just doesn't do it for me.

    I'm sticking with my original list except for LGTIT. I just like GOTC better. I do have an order in how much I like the songs now though and here that is:

    1. Waiting In The Weeds
    2. Somebody
    3. How Long
    4. Long Road Out of Eden
    5. Busy Being Fabulous
    6. Center of the Universe
    7. No More Walks In the Woods
    8. No More Cloudy Days
    9. You Are Not Alone
    10.Business As Usual
    11.Guilty of the Crime

    Edited to add:
    12.Do Something

    I don't like the falsetto either.

    I should have been more clear - when falsetto is used as an occasional thing, it's not so bad. When it dominates the song... it's not for me!
