Noone can say that murder is not a good song. It is an amazing song and it is second for me. Right now i'm just really feeling Laundry Room.. Every line of that song amazes me.
I love Murdered in The City!!! I can play or hear that song a thousand times, and it still makes me cry. What a fantastic song!!! I can't wait to finally get a recording of it, so I can listen to it whenever I want.
I would just like to say that I can't BELIEVE I'm the only vote for Solomon thus far. This is obviously a very hard poll to choose, but come on..... :biggrin:
Whereas I have heard "Murdered" for over a year now, and still love the song, the "New" songs hold just a schoche more appeal at this point. Toss up between "Kick Drum", "Can You Not See" and "And it Spread" w/Kick Drum edging by a nose...
I did not include Can You Not See because it is not necessarily new.. As far as Dream Appointed/Another Youngster, I tried to put up songs that they have been playing alot lately.
I'm having a hard time voting I would like to hear the words to St. Joesph better -- I can't wait for the cd to come out -- I'm so excited to see them so close to home in Cary
Guess I will have to ponder for a while before voting.
i ended up giving my vote to solomon even though i love them all b/c it's too damn good to be in the bottom. then i saw i made late in life in last. the guilt. someone vote for it - please!
Tin Man!
I like Murder a lot and think its a great song, I just like the more up beat stuff.
They're all awesome. Every new song has a frickin' laser beam on its head.
I've heard that Can You Not See was recorded for both Four Thieves Gone AND Emotionalism, but didn't really fit well with the other songs on those albums so it was scrapped for both. I can only imagine that it's once again up for consideration if it's made it this far. It really fits in with some of their newer songs better than it would have with either of the last 2 records. So here's hoping! But anyway, to answer your question, I'm pretty sure Murder is newer.
I was stuck between "Laundry Room" and "Late in Life" and pretty much every other song on that list. Went with "Late in Life" but obviously love them all.
I went with Murder in the City. This is my reason behind my answer, emotion. The first time I saw Scott play this, or every time for that matter, he plays with such emotion. Just like when they play St. Joseph's. Ultimately this is a hard one because they play all songs with such emotion.
Here's my favorite TAB song of the week = Please Pardon Yourself from Migononette = I quote "Do the best you can and that won't go unseen"....by a major or the most significant producer in 20 years maybe
the cream rises....it always does. Good thought on "favorite song of the week" - me being a relatively new fan, it's really nice that each month, or week, or even down to the day, I have ANOTHER new favorite Avett song. Can someone please tell me how this band stayed under wraps this long? My fave currently? Actually two - PG from Annapolis & Can You Not See - "how many times, did we have to say those words.....GOODBYYYYYYEE!!!" Chills and Goosebumps and Adrenaline Rush all in one when i hear that line.
****so when i orignally posted this 07/10/08 I am pretty sure it was supposed to go in a different forum.....it has happened before, and I am sure that to some reading an out of place post from me think I must be a little off - well, that goes without saying - however - i wonder if you have mutiple board tabs open that somehow that screws up where you post actually lands....anyone know?****
^^
My thoughts exactly. How did I, myself, not hear about these guys sooner? I just found them by accident in February, searching for music on Amazon. I can't imagine my life without them, no matter how retarded that sounds.
"Another Youngster" is my favorite song... this hour hahah!
Without a doubt, Tear Down The House is going in my all time favorite Avett Brothers songs. I guess between live shows and Youtube, I've heard all but one of the songs on the Second Gleam now, and Tear Down the House takes the cake.
after listening i thought black, blue was going to be my fave... until i switched to souls like the wheels... but bella donna is wonderful too now so i'm back to square one.
laundry room is my new favorite avett brothers song today.... it changes from day to day ... i catch new things every time i listen to one of their songs .
I must say how impressed I am that my two favorite new songs are the top two (I voted for Murder....but my tag is from Laundry).
However I am amazed that SOlomon is not third. What a beautiful song.
I declare...TAB is becoming like Patsy Cline or Jeff Buckley to me. It nearly rips my heart out to listen to some of the songs, and I do it again and again.
i sat here thinking for about 20 minutes deciding between laundry room and late in life. i ended up picking laundry room. hardest decision of my life.:wacko:

Murder, hands down, for me. If I had a second vote it would be for Late.
Noone can say that murder is not a good song. It is an amazing song and it is second for me. Right now i'm just really feeling Laundry Room.. Every line of that song amazes me.
i can't vote. i can't single out one i like better than the others. i'll work on it.
I personally am feeling "St. Joseph's" right now...it will be on The Second Gleam.
Check it out here....

We just saw them the last two nights and they are amazing as always.
Awesome. I've been curious to hear that one since I found out it was on The Second Gleam. Sounds like another amazing song! Thanks Bonefish!
I like that new song as well! :biggrin:
Isn't this like asking someone to pick their favorite child? I just can't do it. I like them all in different ways at different times.
Murder in the City would have my vote.
Today Laundry Room. Might be different tomorrow, though.
i am digging tin man tonight!
I love Murdered in The City!!! I can play or hear that song a thousand times, and it still makes me cry. What a fantastic song!!! I can't wait to finally get a recording of it, so I can listen to it whenever I want.
I would just like to say that I can't BELIEVE I'm the only vote for Solomon thus far. This is obviously a very hard poll to choose, but come on..... :biggrin:
You didn't mention : 1) "Dream Appointed" or as Angischy on youtube said ".....the song many have previously called 'Another Youngster'..."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UEbv3I98tw
2) "Can You Not See"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04EAA4Lin9c
Whereas I have heard "Murdered" for over a year now, and still love the song, the "New" songs hold just a schoche more appeal at this point. Toss up between "Kick Drum", "Can You Not See" and "And it Spread" w/Kick Drum edging by a nose...
That's an interesting way to write "none".
So is the song titled "Murdered In The City" or "Murder In The City."....Seems to be some confusion out on the ol' boards.
I'm with you, billy...Solomon has the most beautiful melody..and the cello and upright with bow make it sing right to the heart.
How appropriate this thread comes up after saying Tin Man was my favorite song after seeing it 3 nights in a row.
I did not include Can You Not See because it is not necessarily new.. As far as Dream Appointed/Another Youngster, I tried to put up songs that they have been playing alot lately.
laundry room... and it spread a close second.
Probably because I've heard it more live but Solomon just beats out Laundry Room for me.
Late in Life!
The first couple lines do it for me.
My #1 is murdered in the city.
I also LOVE Can you not see. I know its not new but they STILL haven’t released it! I LOVE that song.
I'm having a hard time voting
I would like to hear the words to St. Joesph better -- I can't wait for the cd to come out -- I'm so excited to see them so close to home in Cary 
Guess I will have to ponder for a while before voting.
i ended up giving my vote to solomon even though i love them all b/c it's too damn good to be in the bottom. then i saw i made late in life in last.
the guilt. someone vote for it - please!
Which is older? Murdered or CYNS? and why all of a sudden do i have this strange urge to hum "Ohio" on a kazoo?
oh, and i see you only get to put up so many choices...gotcha
Tin Man!

Although I voted for Tin Man, I can't stop singing "And it Spread." That song is just perfect.
I really dig this video someone took at Merlefest. The audio is a little off, but the shots are great.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g07Tgp18qd8
I'm pretty sure Can you not see has been around awhile. I've got it on a live disc from 2005. MITC debuted in 07 if i'm not mistaken.
Such a difficult choice. Gut tells me "Laundry Room". But heart tells me "Solomon".
I go with heart.
I will now continue to hope Solomon is on The Second Gleam, and pray that Rubin keeps Laundry Room the exact way it is performed live.
One can only dream...
I was stuck between "Laundry Room" and "Late in Life" and pretty much every other song on that list. Went with "Late in Life" but obviously love them all.
Can't believe and it spread is last!
Now I wish I had voted different!
Oh well, love em all.

since there's not an option for ALL OF THE ABOVE i shall abstain from voting
Someone post a video from youtube for Solomon. I don't think I have heard this yet!
With that aside, I have to vote for Laundry Room, Tin Man, and Murdered in the City. Good thing I have three PC's! hahah!
Ask and ye shall receive...

Another Youngster - amazing song, makes me think of my daughter
tear down the house!:wub:
Without a doubt, Tear Down The House is going in my all time favorite Avett Brothers songs. I guess between live shows and Youtube, I've heard all but one of the songs on the Second Gleam now, and Tear Down the House takes the cake.
after listening i thought black, blue was going to be my fave... until i switched to souls like the wheels... but bella donna is wonderful too now so i'm back to square one.
Late in life...
i really like the one "standing with you, standing with you, i might miss the rhythm but i'm catching the tune"
as well as the one they were playing back last november, and i think a few times this year, that starts "another youngster..."
of those listed, laundry room, but i still want to hear a laundry room > pgf [city]
Agreed. St. Joseph's.
laundry room is my new favorite avett brothers song today.... it changes from day to day ... i catch new things every time i listen to one of their songs .
