Favorite Matthew Good Song?

[AndroidsDungeon]

It changes all the time what my favourites are but the two that come to mind are Born Losers and Alert Status Red

[Jessafur]

Looking back on my old picks I can see that my tastes have changed. Now I'd be more inclined to say that Zero Orchestra or Non Populous would be my pick(s) for his solo work, and for MGB I'd probably say Prime Time or Change of Season.

[AndroidsDungeon]

Zero orchestra is definately one of my all time favourites as well. So new yet so matt good I love it.

[MS_DOS]

My fave song always seems to change, and depends on my mood. I think the most interesting thing for me is there is always an MG/MGB song to listen to no matter what mood I'm in.

[AndroidsDungeon]

I completely agree. No matter how I'm feeling or what kind of day I'm having there's always a MG/MGB song that I can listen to or get stuck in my head. Or even songs I'll forget about then hear again and just be into it like it's the first time hearing it. Not many artists or bands can do that for me.

While we were hunting rabbits right now. Changes week to week.

Almost impossible to pick a favorite, although Strange Days is always in heavy rotation in my house...as is Metal Airplanes. Actually, most of Hospital Music is just lovely

[hoogie]

Mine's most likely Non Populus. Prime Time Deliverance is a close second though.

[IamNick]

I change my last answer, now it's Dusk and Set Me On Fire.

[AndroidsDungeon]

Right now I'm loving Garden of Knives. Such a good track.

[DanielsLikeSunday]

For many years it was Generation X-Wing, now it's Fought To Fight It.

I change my mind again, it is now House of Smoke and Mirrors.

[Crusader]

Been lurking on this board for years.........and after suffering through countless "Matt who???" responses on the other message boards I frequent when trying discuss anything pertaining to Mr. Good, I finally decided to bite the proverbial bullet and register here.

 

And so, this seemed as logical a thread as any for my first post.

 

Favorite Matthew Good song of all time you ask?  (drumroll please.....)

 

While We Were Hunting Rabbits

 

So, so, so many other obvious choices, but this is my goto 'midnight' drive song even after all these years.  They lyrics and vocal speak to me in a way that few other pieces of recorded music ever have.

This is my favorite Matthew Good live YouTube video of all time. Whoever shot that, well done. It is timeless.

One of my least favorite songs of his entire collection turned out to be best one.

Back in 1999, it was Apparitions. That one still holds a special place in my memories. Still has one of the better music videos I've seen. Then the favourite was either Suburbia or Strange Days. Now I think Avalanche sits atop the heap. Amazing how favourites seem to come and go with age.

[jbors4MG]

Incredibly hard one to answer isn't it... wow!

 

I'd have to go with Dancing Invisible - followed closely by South of Summer and Waiting for the Great Destruction.

[Rebecca]

Today it's She's Got a New Disguise. Tomorrow, who knows :)

[hoogie]

I think mine is still Non Populus.

[killjoy619]

Changes over time. Used to be Last Parade, but Cloudbusting is now a contender for sure.

[Prairieboy]

For many years it was Generation X-Wing, now it's Fought To Fight It.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNC8nHlAgbs

Thx for posting this link....I had looked for this once long ago and gave up, I figured Fought To Fight It had never been played live. Great little song.

[Guest Idioteque]

I can listen to "I Miss New Wave" 20 times in a row. The chance of hearing that song live during a Beautiful Midnight concert would be a dream come true.

As of late I've been the same way. I could listen to it over and over and over.

[Rebecca]

Today I'm going with Flashdance ii. 

[Hired Goomba]

For a long time my favorite was Suburbia and still holds a top 5 spot with me. But right now I've been in an "Anti-Pop" mood. And from the new album, I've loved "Girls in Black."
