These Days is my favorite album as well. Every song is great! I was a little dissapointed that the Crush and OWN shows that I saw did not include any songs from These Days. Hopefully, they will add some of these songs to the setlist. This Aint A Love Song would be perfect to close a show.

Default Thes Days

They seem to have a very similar set list for most concerts and they do tend not to sing any from These Days. You can always predict what songs they will end on, great songs yeah but maybe they will surprise us one day and completely alter the set list.

These days is a great album..

I disagree about the album!!
The album has a few good songs like these days (the song), something to believe in, and this aint a love song.....but to me its the only BJ album where they are pesimistic instead of optimistic. Also I don't like Hey God, Diamond ring etc.

I rate it as one of BJ's lower albums (probably second last)

So I guess overall I would like to see these days (the song), and possibly something to believe in, get played in concert, but thats about all the these days that I want

I don't really agree with Dan here..

I think These Days is one of the their best, if not the best..

But it is true that the album is pessimistic instead of usual cheerful optimistic BJ.

Most standout tracks are : Something to Believe In, (It is hard)Letting you go, Bitter Wine, Hey God, These Days..

But sadly These Days and Diamond Ring are only tracks that most people noticed.. And i don't like Diamond Ring that much compare to other tracks in the album

I would have to disagree with you both of you actually.These Days is a great album!!!Sure to you guys the album may sound somewhat pessimistic but from what I see..in my opinion anyways...is that these songs were written for a specific reason....perhaps these songs are kind of a reflection on what the band has been through personally and emotionally.and These Days the song itself kinda explains that that was then and this is now and things have changed over the years.But like I said thats my opinion.I loved the whole album from the first track to the last track.Diamond Ring I think is a great love song....I think it shows alot of emotion...about doing anything for the person you love.


Now you got me on your string...
Diamond Ring..
