    Blue Jeans.

    Super close, but there’s a little more to chew on lyrically there.

    Seriously never knew "Blue Jeans" was this beloved. Not even a top 25 Brian Fallon song for me.

    It’s really a song vs song thing for me. I don’t love backseat like everyone else does. However, that live video that was posted a page or two ago almost swayed me.

    Blue Jeans is gaslight in a nutshell though.

    Wrecked 'em? Damn near killed 'em!

    If I counted right, we currently have a tie! That's just me eyeballing it. I just got the sudden urge to watch Forrest Gump so that's my evening right now haha

    "Blue Jeans" is fine, I just think it's a sound/mood Fallon has done better elsewhere. I think my main issue of it is that the studio version is only so-so.

    As for Gaslight in a nutshell, I think you have to pick a song that really showcases the full band. "Great Expectations" or "The Backseat" would probably be my pick.

    Lol I can certainly understand putting backseat ahead of blue jeans but to say it's not even top 25...

    You've heard the song, right? It has all the same nostalgia and charm the rest of his best stuff do
