F if only for Speak To Me. I love that song.

How do you go about picking the songs? Just randomly or is there a system of picking like an epic, ballad, short song?

There's at least one stinker in each one. Ummm....C, as Take The Time is phenomenal and I've a soft spot for SDV.

Sort of random, and I had a method for the first three, but this time around, it was merely a case of picking most of the songs that hadn't been used yet in the first three.  This is all just for fun anyway. :)

C. There's at least one song in every other group I am not overly fond of.

This one is LESS like picking between my children, Kev.

Went with C.. Although I never cared for Take the Time... (I know I know.. spare me.. I heard all that)
Space Dye Vest ... meh... good song.. but I don't see it as DT song at all....


Afterlife, on the other hand... is a friggin masterpiece....

Geez, this was a dud batch. :lol I went with A, and that's only because it was literally the only one that didn't have a stinker. I'm not even crazy about any of the songs in that grouping.

Agree.  All groupings were pretty weak compared to the other threads.  Went with C, because I actually don't mind Space-Dye Vest that much, and the other two are fantastic.  Apparently most feel the same.

Ruba - you really do, if for The Way It Used To Be and a better version of Take Away My Pain alone. Why these didn't make the album will always baffle me. TWIUTB is IMO the most interesting solo of JP's entire output. Equal parts Rabin, Edge, and EVH.
