Right now it's Always, I hate to choose between the two.

i really like them both , this is actually really hard to choose i'd much rather hear always live as i think it works better live , but there is something about BOR that i really like.

But IBTFU is my favourite BJ ballad

I've never ever been a fan of Always, but it got my vote over BOR. After hearing both songs live in the past week (Helsinki Always, Oslo - both!) I was more moved by Always. BOR is a treat live but works best on record (IMO).

p.s. Richie's solo on Always in Oslo - amazing, he really went for it, it was much longer than it should have been, Jon wasn't expecting it but he was as into it as we were!

I picked bed Of Roses. Not even close. Always is good, but To me It's a chick song. BOR has a great guitar solo and is one of there bests. Plus, Iv'e never seen BOR live on the original version before so i'm hoping for that when I go to there shows.

Bed Of Roses has always been my favourite BJ song. Love the lyrics, really connect to it. Good metaphors, and you can't say that about a lot of BJ songs. It's deep and honest, one of Jon's finest moments. Live it hasn't been delivered with this depth though, it became a bit cheesy (watch "Crush Tour"). The version from "An Evening With BJ" is pretty good.

Always is a great song, no doubt. I just wasn't so into it in the last few years. Sine hearing it live this year it had a good comeback on my top song list. It moved me more than hearing Bed Of Roses on the show some days later. It's a grand ballad which deserves to be played regularly. lyrics are nice, but in no way can compare to my connection with BOR.
