Favorite Counting Crows Songs
As a follow-up to my recent ranking of the studio albums from Counting Crows, here is a list of my current top 25 favorite Counting Crows songs. Overall, this is more difficult
than ranking the albums, as there are so many good to great songs to
consider and come up with an absolute favorites list. In addition,
favorite songs tend to change more readily with time and
circumstances, thus this list represents what I am thinking today, and
would probably change if reconsidered next week, month, or year
(although the top 5 or so are pretty solid and probably won't change much). Anyway,
here is a list of my current top 25 favorite Counting Crows songs (with album indicated in parentheses-see key below), as well as
my bottom 5 least favorite songs.
