Which OLP Song is Performed Best Live?

Post by Furious George »

Personally, I think Whatever wins without a doubt. Raine never goes off on that song, and there is just so much sheer power when its done live.

Naveed is pretty powerful in concert too.

Birdman's good the first time you see it but after that you get used to the same solos and the same antics in the same spot every time...

it's still a powerful song though
I know for me Starseed is the one that really gets me. It's kinda obvious because it is one of their most powerful songs but it is still tops on my list.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

I don't believe no one has said OMA :wtf: I mean I know it's a really hard choice to pick just one and every one mentioned I love (well, I love all their songs, lol), but as far as a live performance, nothing beats a totally rockin' song + Raine climbing up to the balcony and greeting the fans up there! I don't know if this is common or not, but at the Philly show last August (best show I've ever been to) he jumped and crowd surfed up to the stage!

Naveed. I have never seen OLP live (I am planning on it 3 times this summer, depends on where they play though), but I have seen and heard enough of Naveed live to know it's amazing.

No way, Raine screws up on the lyrics EVERYTIME. And if it's not Raine it would be the audience. Guys, it's "is anybody LOW!!"

On a consistent basis Naveed and Birdman IMO are the best two live songs. They always seem to get it right when i see them.

You guys should have heard Story of 100 Aisles :mrgreen:

Whatever has sounded darn good the 2 times i've seen them.

My wildcard song is One Man Army. When Raine hits the song it's killer and usually BY FAR the best song in the set. But when he misses the notes it's pretty ugly. (Mind you it's my fave song ever, so i like it either way)
