Eyes Wide Open - "I'm a fortunate son of a fortunate son, livin' large on the wrong side of town..." The whole first verse is awesome. Also, "I get what I want if I make up my mind". |

I totally know what you mean about James Dean, it's the best. It's hilarious but at the same time it's kinda sad if you think about the lyrics! Reminds me of that Robby quote *paraphrases* "We've been singing these songs that sound really happy for years, but if you listen, the words are all like 'my brains are falling out, somebody please pull me together!'"
But I love when John gets to the bit where he sings "...the actors and the movie stars..." and then he nearly cracks up. I just imagine all the guys sitting in a studio trying not to laugh, and failing...and then I start laughing  It always cheers me up 
And I love, LOVE Eyes Wide Open. I know people like that, I really do. I always liked the way he sings "Kick it all down" with such feeling

January Friend (Live) - I love how he rushes these songs live. Especially right before the solo when he loses his breath. It seems sloppy to some, but I love the rough style of his vocals.

Hmm, I recently heard there was a weird story behind January Friend which confused me...meh.
The 'rough style of his vocals' rocks! I don't get the way people are always ragging on Robby's way of doing things  My ex (who was, of couse, exposed to copious amounts of GGD throughout the course of our relationship) used to always say "they'd be much better if they got rid of THAT guy" whenever one of Robby's songs came on...grrr 
I always thought that the fact that there was such a contrast between Johnny's vocals and Robby's vocals was a really positive thing, it's one of the best things about the band in my opinion. I mean, who wants Robby to sound like Johnny? Or vice versa? I LIKE the fact that there is variety!
