Shoot me LOL
I love WWWB, and if it were on the poll I would have voted for it. That said, I went with Memory. I love how different that song is from most of their other love songs. Not nearly as on the nose as far as blatant boy/girl lyrics.

For me it's Make A Memory.
Yes, underrated. Thanks!

You're not alone, I like Welcome a lot. One of my favourites Have A Nice Day songs.

Thank You For Loving Me sounds like very classic. Thick as Thieves as my second.

Aloha !

I can't say I've got any and don't understand the love for Memory either. It's a snoozefest to me. The list in this poll shows Jon's no longer capable of either writing or singing real ballads.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Love the lyrics of Seat Next to You. While I'm not a fan of the recorded or live version of Memory, the video is fantastic and I can understand the mass appeal to the song.

I agree. I truly like all the songs in the pre 2000 poll and dislike all the songs in this poll.

Put me down for Make a Memory too.

Although I do love Thank You For Loving Me. It's a close call.

Oh and I also think that Save the World is under rated. And These Open Arms should've been on HAND. It's a great track.
