TOP 1. Bring It On Home (why did this one disappear from public consciousness so quickly?) 2. Tornado 3. I'm with the Band 4. Good as Gone 5. Pontoon 6. Life in a Northern Town 7. Day Drinking 8. Girl Crush 9. Little White Church 10. Boondocks 11. Sober 12. Your Side of the Bed 13. Don't Waste My Time
(Now that I've heard the singles off their first album — who sings lead on Don't Waste My Time and Everything Changes? Their voices sound so different on that album!)
BOTTOM 1. Fine Line (more like "least good" than "bad") 2. Everything Changes (ditto)

They exchange vocals on both songs. I'm talking about the specific lead. The "I've been here before" and "The words you say" on DMWT, and "I saw you before you saw me" and "We try to hold it in our hands" on EC.

Bottom:
1. Fine Line 2. I'm With The Band 3. Good Lord Willing

Shut Up Train was a great song from The Reason Why album. Surprise no one listed it. Probably my favorite LBT song , though I only have albums The Reason Why and every one since. I need to listen to their earlier stuff. Boondocks got played to death, the ending 2 minutes can get repetitious and annoying "you get a line, I get a pole " etc.
Very consistent band IMO. No real misses.

I tend to include album tracks in these threads. IMO most album tracks are superior to singles , but not in all cases. Plus country radio will play a good song so much that I can't listen to it anymore.

"I've been here before" is Kimberly and "The words you say" is Phillip on "Don't Waste My Time." "I saw you before you saw me" is Phillip and "We try to hold it in our hands" is Kimberly on "Everything Changes." Interesting that Kimberly was co-lead on both of their first two singles, but didn't get a lead vocal again until "Sober". That might also be a factor on the sound being so different then, as most of the singles now put more emphasis on Karen or Jimi.

You said you were surprised, and I was just pointing out why "Shut Up Train" wasn't included, which is why I wasn't surprised it wasn't listed by anyone up to this point. Usually I just make a separate category to include "TOP Album Tracks" if it's an artist I like enough and have enough knowledge of their albums. Of course you can do whatever you wish in these threads though, lol.

top 3
1. boondocks 2. good lord willing (almost my #1) 3. little white church

Top singles: Boondocks Song I can most relate to Your Side of the Bed Best group vocal performance Pontoon Catchiest Girl Crush Best written / best lead vocal Little White Church I don't know, it was getting to hard to decide Tornado,Sober, Kiss Goodbye, Top album tracks: Front Porch Thing Stay Bones Shut Up Train Can't Go Back Bottom : their first album I don't think any of the tracks on that album were up to the standards they have set since.

I seem to be the only one who loves the A Place to Land singles. :'( For me that's also their best and most cohesive album overall and there's a bigger emphasis on their 4-part harmonies there than on any of their other records. Top1. Little White Church 2. Good Lord Willing 3. Fine Line 4. Your Side of the Bed 5. Bring It on Home 6. Pontoon 7. Kiss Goodbye 8. Boondocks 9. Tornado 10. Day Drinking Bottommaybe the ones from their debut album? I don't even remember them though, lol. Really like just about everything they've put out. ETA: Kanenrá:ke, I guess you're not the only one who loves "Fine Line." ;) But then you ranked "Good Lord Willing" last. :( :( :( ETA2: Yaaaaas Zeebz @ you ranking LWC as your #1 too!

Eh, why not.
TOP
01 "Tornado" 02 "Pontoon" 03 "Kiss Goodbye" 04 "Boondocks" 05 "Bring It On Home" 06 "Girl Crush" 07 "Your Side Of The Bed" 08 "Day Drinking" 09 "Sober" 10 "The Reason Why"
Honestly, I don't remember any of their other singles that well. It's been so long since I've listened to them. And I don't think I've ever even heard their debut album.
The only single from them that I dislike is "Little White Church".
Top Album Tracks...4 of them from Tornado:
* Leavin' In Your Eyes * Can't Go Back * Self Made * Night Owl
I still need to buy their other albums. Ever since "Kiss Goodbye", they've been my favorite group.

Funnily enough though... My album ranking for them 01. A Place To Land02. Pain Killer03. The Road To Here04. Tornado05. Little Big Town06. The Reason Why
I just wasn't a fan of the singles from APTL but it's my favorite album from them overall! "Fine Line", "I'm With The Band" "That's Where I'll Be", "Novocaine", "Only What You Make Of It", "A Place To Land", "To Know Love", "Fury", "Love Profound" are all outstanding tracks, the only reason "IWTB" misses out for me singles wise is cause I didn't think it was a good lead single and am still kinda mad they chose it lol The only track I truly don't like from the album is "Good Lord Willing", it's probably one of my least favorite of all their tracks...sorry lol

Little Big Town are one of my favourite country acts and, since they have had so many songs over the year that I have adored, I will just list off the top of the head my current top 5:
1. Girl Crush 2. Better Man 3. Your Side Of The Bed 4. Leavin' In Your Eyes 5. Shut Up Train
Better Man is probably higher than it'll end up because of recentness and my current emotional situation. Anyway, the only songs from them that I have not enjoyed that much were the ones from the Wanderlust side-project

Zeebz YAS stan hard! I adore them too! Let's be bff's! Also .indulgecountry A Place To Land is definitely my favorite album of theirs to date and it's going to be SO hard for them to top that for me! Your description of that album is spot on. The fact that it's your and Kanenrá:ke 's #1 LBT album makes me really happy lol. Let's all be bff's! As for the top 5/bottom 5 thing I never participate in these. Might do it later for LBT, but for right now I just had to comment on a few things lol.
