I also love the kooky, tacky, tawdry, sordid imagery it contains, lyrically. That and it's a VERY fun song to see/hear performed live. And so...top 20 faves: 1. Old Dominion 2. Great Day 3. Atlantic 4. Hey Little Man 5. Oh My Brother 6. Down to a River to Pray 7. Quick 8. Eddie's Concubine 9. Bookends 10. Bleecker to Broadway 11. Porchlight 12. Not Enough Gold in the World 13. Walkin' in Jerusalem 14. Operator 15. 30-Second Love Affair (Robbie) 16. Let's Get Mesolithic 17. Fly South 18. New James Bond 19. The Bridge 20. The Star-Spangled Banner you lucky cruise-goers be sure to take lots of notes and pictures so those of us left behind can have a full vicarious experience upon your return!!!

Eddie's Concubine 6. Fly South 7. Full of Herself (Robbie) 8. One Thousand Sarahs 9. Great Day 10. Gravity 11. This My Town 12. Oh My Brother 13. Step Into the Outside 14. Candido 15. One 16.

Fritchie 19. Imagine Me* 18. This my Town 17. 20K Hearts 16. Continents of Time 15. NPR 14. Farmer Brown* 13. Oh my Brother 12. Sahara 11. Candido 10. One 9. Simile Song 8. Very Fine Funeral 7. Step into the Outside 6. Minnesota 1945 5. Woman of Faith 4. Stupid American 3. #6 Driver 2. Old Dominion 1. Train Song (with Green Acres) * Yes, as a founding fan, I've definitley over-played and/or over-heard some of these songs over the last 11 years - like Farmer Brown (sorry Joe), but they still deserve top 20 recognition, in my opinion.

I had a hard enough time getting it narrowed down that much... I can't take it any farther. 1 The Best of Me 2 I Know You Rider Medley 3 Abraham 4 In Paradise 5 Cleo & Tony Medley 6 Oh My Brother 7 Hey Little Man 8 Blue Jeans 9 1,000 Sarahs 10 The Three Fine Daughters of Farmer Brown 11 It Ain't Worth 12 Good At That 13 Old Dominion 14 Very Fine Funeral 15 30 Second Love Affair 16 Doin' Time Under the Lifeguard Stand 17 How Far to the Water 18 Operator 19 Fly South 20 Woman of Faith 21 Observation 22 Maylee, I Had a Dream 23 Bookends 24 Gravity 25 No Left Turns in Jersey The fact that everyone likes different EFO tunes for different reasons is one of the things that make this band great IMHO. It's not like most other bands where there are some "hits" and then a lot of filler; every EFO song means something to someone. Except "Bleeker to Broadway". What a stinker.... (before anyone's undergarments become bunched, please note that this is a completely sarcastic, tongue-in-cheek remark and was only made to anger the easily irritated edheads out there.
