Jimmy should put 'Lighthouse' on the new album

I'm listening to RM and Lighthouse comes on, and although it's a good song live, there really isn't a 'clean' version of this song, and the new album would give him a chance to get it on an album. I just love his version of the song. I know it won't happen, but it would be nice.

I'd prefer more original material in lieu of covers myself. Maybe he could include it as a bonus track, that is if he's ever even cut a studio version of it.

I usually like Jimmy's cover version of a song more than the original, and in this case even moreso, and this song, as far as I can tell, has never been on a CD released by Bubba, and since he usually includes one or two covers on a CD, I would love for him to include it on this CD, just to have a version of this song ON a CD.

I am obviously not expecting it to be there, but it would be a wonderful surprise.

I'd still like him to put "Salty Piece of Land" on an album for us!

A Salty Piece of Land was released as a CD single included with hardcover copies of the book A Salty Piece of Land.

It's a shitty song and he should sing his own stuff.

Don't sugar coat it. Tell us how you really feel.

I would also like Lighthouse by Buffett so I can have it in my iTunes.

I really enjoy the JT version on Gorilla.

You can download a live version by Jimmy from Jokelben from one of the 2005 shows, as he performed it at a number of shows during the 2005 Salty Piece of Land Tour

Which is more than anyone ever needs to hear it.

I never put music I get from jokelben in my iTunes.

I was really hoping for a commercially sold version.

I can always listen online.

I'd really like the video version from the Coastal Confessions show.
