Gotta think about it.
Doing a top 5 will a lot voters with 15 pts (5+4+3+2+1 = 15)... so you can use those 15pts on a top ten if you want... It means just less points for individual songs if you really want them to make it into the top 10 for the poll. Does that sound good? I am new to this...

5. These Days : no explanation needed

4. Keep The Faith: the ultimate declaration of hope, not an inch naive

3. You Give Love A Bad Name: Conveniently melodramatic yet tongue in cheek. I think the lyrics to Bad Name are absolutely outstanding. I canīt see the cliche in them.

2. Last Man Standing

1. Letting You Go: the ultimate downer lyric.

This is too hard to pick just 5! Here's my shot at it...

5pt] Whole Lot of Leavin'
4pt] Fear
3pt] I Believe
2pt] (It's Hard) Letting You Go
1pt] I Want to Be Loved

It was really hard leaving off these songs. They all have such wonderful lyrics...

- Last Man Standing
- This Ain't A Love Song
- The Last Night
- Make a Memory
- Undivided
- Just Older
- Living In Sin

This will work for me:

5) Kidnap an angel
4) Satellite
3) Someday I'll Be Saturday Night (Demo)
2) Maybe Someday
1) Rich Man Living in a poor man's house


The Box set is the best of all! in music and lyrics, no album can beat it!

Someone with me?

Maybe Someday is certainly one I considered... almost made my list. Fantastic lyrics. But the other's are various degrees of okay-good. Nothing on the boxset compares to Bed of Roses or These Days lyrics IMO.

1(st): These Days
2: My Guitar Lies Bleeding In My Arms
3: Fear
4: Dry County
5: Always

If it was extended to 10 or so, I would have chosen from these:

I Want to Be Loved
Bad Medicine
Something to Believe In
Two Story Town
Captain Crash and the Beauty Queen from Mars
Right Side of Wrong
You Had Me from Hello

I do believe that after These Days, the quality of the lyrics Jon and Richie were writing started to decline.
