You're stuck on a desert island. You can take 3, and only 3, Travis songs with you. You may never be rescued so these 3 songs might be the only Travis songs you ever hear again.
Which 3 would you choose?
Love Will Come Through,
Coming Around,
Writing To Reach You. |

Out of the blue....only 3, right?
my 3-seconds-decision:
Love will come through
Enemy
Chinese Blues
(but I'll be missing loooooooooooooooooots of other ones) |

Nice thread idea :) I'm going to go with:
1) Driftwood (hopefully it would cause driftwood to appear in the same way that WDIAROM conjures up rain, then I could fashion a raft and escape! Plus it's my favourite song, but that's a boring reason.)
2) As You Are ("Everyday I wake up alone because..." Yes, that's why it's called a 'desert' island, were you expecting a party?!)
3) Selfish Jean (becase it never fails to bring a smile to my face and I imagine that smiles will be few and far between in that situation.)
Those aren't my favourite 3 Travis songs but I think they're the best combination for eternal lonesomeness. |

Good question...
I think I will never get bored of listening:
* Turn
* 3 times and you lose ("you'll never get away from here" - that sounds appropriate! :D)
* Somewhere else

Haha. That's the right idea people. ;)
It probably wouldn't be your 3 favourite Travis songs. I know i didn't pick my 3 favourites.

No, i wasn't expecting a party, but i don't want to get too depressed either. :P Awesome song though it is, i couldn't cope listening to it if i was stuck to be alone forever. lol |

Great idea Ben! Let's see...
- Indefinitely (listening to it while looking at the sea must be priceless...).
- Love Will Come Through (The good thing about this song is that we can you can change Love for Rescue :P)
- Somewhere else (I can't get enough of this song...)
Poor I Love You Anyways...*feels guilty* |

LOL, Ben!! But seriously: this is a superhard decision. Let's see...
20 ('cause I'd wish to be 20 again when I'd be on a desert island! Time travelling... And they haven't made a song called "41" yet...)
Ring Out The Bell (a: to listen to Dougie for the last time, and b: maybe somebody hears the bell??)
Driftwood ('cause driftwood drifts ON the water - what a good chance, eh?)
And I would walk across the island and would look for the antenna tower and send an SOS... or I'd look for the hatch and enter 4,8,15,16,23,42... But: we all know there is another island, so I'd swim there and THEN I'd listen to
Turn, Closer, Flowers, Why Does..., Luv, Before you... and the rest!!
P.S.: Some LOST fans here??

Sometimes I dream of running away to a distant desert island, but with only 3 Travis songs... I'd be missing all the rest too much so I'd better stay here ;)
Anyway it's difficult to choose but I think it would be Closer, Afterglow and WDIAROM. They are my best cure for sadness and depression. |
