I think we'll be seeing a 15-seed in the sweet 16.

Paris. I like that song. Mexico is good also, but we'll always have Paris..........

I went to Paris in 1977.... 13 countries in 6 weeks... on an educational tour... I remember singing He went to Paris on the plane.... there were no less than 25 of us serenading the other passangers..... I wonder if they remember it as I do.....

HWTP- glad I'm not alone on this one

One of Jimmy's best songs. I've always been a huge fan of his quieter, melodic work and this certainly qualifies.

HWTP seems to be everyone's first favorite ballad ... at least for the old timers ... it was for me!

HWTP gives an accurate depiction of what life can do to anyone, but shows that happiness is yours to make. The ultimate Parrothead philosophy song in my mind.

HWTP is pushing another upset.

I love that Jimmy wrote "...Paris" but I actually love Mexico too! (especially when JB sings it) what a decision!

"Now he lives in the islands, fishes the pilins
And drinks his green label each day
Writing his memoirs, losin his hearin
But he dont care what most people say"

He Went To Paris all the way!

You guys all have me rethinking my choice. I think JB does Mexico better than JT but hwtp has always been a favorite as well............
