OK so my brother and I decided to break down the first 3 Travis albums (plus the single Coming Around) and cut them down to what we deemed were the 30 best tracks from the 97-01 early Travis period. We then had a draft where we each selected 1 song until we had both chosen 15 aside. He of course thinks he has chosen the better batch of songs, and of course I strongly disagree ; ) So we are going to hopefully allow you guys to decide who the winner is, so if you wouldn't mind weighing in and casting your votes it would be much appreciated. Thanks! Here we go...

My Batch

Why Does It Always Rain On Me?

Actually I can't decide, they're just as good... For example your brother has chosen my all-time favourite Turn and you have my second favourite Side.... Impossible!

Thank you all kindly for the responses and input and for welcoming me to the board. I have been a massive Travis fan for the past 10 years (and I'm from the US can you believe it?) and now I've finally joined the rest of community. Travis fans are some of the luckiest and appreciative people alive. Their music has changed my life forever and I don't know where I would be right now without it. I've seen them live 4 times and they are easily some of the best shows I have been to in my life. Fran is an absolute legend for all time and one of the nicest human beings there is. I still have yet to hear anyone say a negative thing about that man. Anyway, thanks again and I'm very much looking forward to spending time on here getting to know everyone and their thoughts/views, and most importantly in sharing our love for one of the select few "special" bands of our time. I love you all!

too many i love on each side. Literally cant pick.

But, I think Lukey should do another showdown. I like yelling at people for their misguided selections.

Hmmm. That's tough. Maybe your batch. I especially like the song "Side Show" ;)

Haha, good catch on the typo, thanks. No disrespect to Fran, sorry. Classic tune.

I really can't pick either. Maybe his batch, but there are around 4 songs of yours that I would definitely pick myself, 'cause they're some of my favourites... so, I don't know.

Your batch... just.

p.s. I have deemed this just about different enough from Song Showdown to not call my lawyers. But I'm keeping my beady eye on your every move.

Too hard for me to decide. There were some of my favorites on each list.

Welcome!
