daniel's best song ever

[SuPer-StuPid]

I'd have to say 'Big business monkey' 'I remember painfully' 'come to me tonite' 'hey joe' and 'I saw her standing there' is brilliant!!
I guess every day it changes.........I had to go against the grain against 'grievances' even though its an awesome song.

[Disfranchise]

I saw her standing there is a beatles song that daniel has covered.

[niwi]

I'd say the one that sticks with me the most is Like a Monkey in a Zoo.

[dejected]

I think Like a Monkey In A Zoo is one of the most "structured" of Daniel's songs lyrically - I don't know that he was trying to be structured, but it turned out that way.   For that reason, though, it does "stand out".

Being that way, it is the kind of song that someone else can take on and get across easily, and that appeals to the general listener.

"Dairy Queen"

[vincent]

sorry entertainer is the best song

i would, without hesitation, say "story of an artist".

[vincent]

The best song for me is DREAM SCREAM

But honest all his song are really good

The whirly piano in Dream Scream makes my head hurt. Hehe.

[dbeefy]

I agree with notdaniel. An idiot's end is just plain one of the best songs I've ever heard, by anyone - have played it to a lot of people, just to see their jaws drop and the light come on in their minds if they 'get it' 

(but then there are so many other good ones too ..)

[Stress Records]

How about "More Dead Than Alive"? I think this one compares favorably with anything on Dylan's Blonde on Blonde.

[gina164]

Currently, "Living Life" resonates most with me.  I like both Dan's fast version and the slower tempo cover by Eels.

...but, my favorite DJ song might/will probably change as my life changes...

livin, livin, livin, livin life....

"Nothing" off the Live in Berlin cd! Man that song is beautiful!

[Henry Long]

Dude-
That Live In Berlin CD is HAUNTING! Like it was recorded in dreamtime, etched with ice on the slate inside your skull and played by slowly turning around counter-clockwise on a felt-wrapped piano with your eyes closed tight.

(Huh?)

Best song is like best painting at the Louvre, you know?
"Hi How Are You?" the tape, was the dose that got me infected, and each song on there like a slow steady morphine drip. That tape was the soundtrack to one of the most manic, frantic, painful, depressing, beautiful years of my life, so I will always be partial.

Someday, following a Daniel binge, I will make a personal top 10 and post, but I may never be the same again.

[lonelyloner]

sorry, I'm a bit late. I think Daniel's best songs are "Tuna Ketchup" and "Peek A Boo".

Couldn't pick one until I have heard all of them but as of right now I'm leaning towards Broken Dreams and that is just based on the snippet I heard on the movie site.
