Well, I'll put it this way. A lot of people on the board talk about The Wonderful Future as an amazing song, just like Blister and Car Crash, so The Wonderful Future shouldn't be on there. I picked Annie, because that is very underrated.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

Although I, of course, love all of these songs...
I couldn't have said it better myself.
And it's hard to pick songs that aren't talked about when we're in an OLP community, always talking about OLP in one way or another...

If you gave "Annie" to any underground band, I assure you it would be a hit, or at least a cult classic. Kinda like in a way Hope would be a cult classic for OLP, ya know?

Su7an: I bet Duncan can fly. He's just holding out on showing that skill off.
joe_canadian: Yeah, one day at a concert he'll just stop playing and be like
"Yo muthafuckas! Wheeeeee!" and zoom off into the horizon

I'm not really a big fan of "Consequences of Laughing," and "Annie." The Wonderful Future is adored by hard core OLP fans, so it is very much liked, even though it's not popular overall. I vote for "All My Friends." I love that song. Got me through some tough times, it did.
HARDCORE!!!
OMG. I can't believe I din't think fo you
until now because when I think on
a scale of one to ten you're like YWELVE.
No, seriously?
I <3 my HLP!!!!!

Ya know, I love OLP to death and all, but I'm not that crazy about The Wonderful Future. It's a good song and all, I enjoy it, but it's kind of mediocre to me. My favorite out of the list in Consequence of Laughing. Story of 100 Aisles is very close though.
Don't say we're healing when it's just not what we do...
Annie and Consequence
Annie is one of my all time faves with Potato Girl and Consequence is just a really unique song that's grown on me

you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

Seriously, the first time I heard Annie I was kind of freaked out. I listened to it again and ended up loving it. That's basically how it was with the whole Happiness album. I disliked it at first, and now it's my favorite.

I was then to be part of the mystery,
to love and be loved. Let's just hope that is enough.
