I think a lot of it depends on what's happening in my life.
Gordon has so many beautiful songs that speak to a heart that's breaking for whatever reason...how can you choose just one?
Too Late For Prayin'...that song is very appropriate for the world today

I can never listen without a tear or two for the sadness of life expressed in that song.

The Watchman's Gone is one that can get to me...I'd Rather Press On....Now And Then..Tattoo...It's Worth Believin'....and lately, for some reason, The Pony Man.
