Favorite Dawes Songs
As a follow-up to my recent ranking of the studio albums from Dawes, here is a list of my current top 20 favorite Dawes songs. Of course, this will probably change quite a bit over time as different songs become more or less favored with subsequent listens. And of course, there are many more good to great songs that just did not make the list, but this, in general shows my favorites. Thus, this list represents what I am thinking today, and would probably change if reconsidered next week, month, or year. Anyway, here is a list of my current top 20 favorite Dawes songs (with album indicated in parentheses-see key below). They have a diversity of styles over the different albums, but always have had solid songwriting and very enjoyable songs.
