^ GooD oNe !

I would have to say:

Mr Buechner's Dream (The First Colelction): JoeL
best closing concert track too Cool


Why is this still being discussed? DaLe gave the definitive answer. Joel is the best closing song of any album by any band ever.

This thread is now closed. Red Face

I have to agree, "Joel" is awesome, but it still ain't "Sanctuary." Thread open!

I don't think anyone will disagree as to the terrific nature of the song "Sanctuary."

However,



a fact is a fact




and the fact is





"Joel" is better!

  Closing Tracks

As much as I love "Sanctuary" (and I REALLY love that song)

I think "Stone Away" is a great closing track.

But I think the best one in all of the TST/DA/SE/LD library is "Soon!"

(Keeping in mind that "Pretentious Poetry Readings" isn't really a closing song, which I presume is what the questions was talking about in the first place.)

Sanctuary hasn't aged well, but it's still probably the best.

Great song! I really do love BL! Cool

You know the more I think about this, "Soon!" is a pretty darn good song.

Maybe I've been too hasty...

Skeptics' Song

from the album "Daniel Amos"
Words and Music by Terry Scott Taylor
©1976 Maranatha! Music

MASTER OF CEREMONIES: And, now, ladies and gentlemen,
for your dining and listening pleasure... live from high
atop the Manhattan Towers, we proudly present the heart-
stirring sounds of "Dan Amos and the Maranatha Mood Makers"!!


Guess you aren't expectin' no resurrection too soon
(world doom)
That story's got to be bunk about that trumpet tune
(cheese on the moon)
But won't your peepers get the creepers when you realize
It's all happenin' before your eyes
Oh my! You'll cry as we wave good-bye to you

Now, all is well, 'cause there ain't no hell below ya
God would have a lot of nerve to reserve that hot spot for ya
No, you won't bring the temperature down one degree
Simply because you don't believe
Oh my! You'll fry as we wave good-bye to you

Yeah, God's a laugh a minute with His funny book
But, friend, I'd take a second look
All that you're read in there is gonna come true
Even, Clyde, in spite of you

No, you won't get to heaven just by livin' right
(day and night)
No cravin' for behavin' will release you from the sinner's
Plight (uptight)
If you're facin' God's salvation with an open heart
Then Jesus, He's gonna do His part
Oh my! You'll fly as we rise in the sky
Oh my! You'll fly as we rise in the sky
Oh my! You'll fly as we rise in the sky with you!

"So Long Again" is the best closing track duh.



Posted by dennis on 09-12-2004 at03:05:

 

"So Long" on Dig is a really classsic closing track!

adam again - dig



So Long

I went too far
I went too far
I wanted to tell a joke
I wanted to tell a joke
Ha ha
I'm so funny
That joke that I told
Ha ha
I climbed that hill
I climbed that hill
I wanted to be on the top
I wanted to see the top
Big deal
I'm so tired
That hill that I climbed
Big deal
I'm so wrong
And I don't know the reason for this song
But I know how to say
I know how to say
So long
So long
I'm so tender
The way that I say
So long

P.S. And a little piece of inconsequential trivia; I had the honour and pleasure of hosting the "worldwide" debut of this album on my old radio show back in 1992. I still have the pre-release cassette. Smile )
