The Best of Timothy B. Schmit Survivor

[TimothyBFan]

I know you have never really been a fan of this song... but it makes me so happy and I love singing along with it. It's so uplifting! I'm pretty sure it's one of my favorites, if not my favorite on the album! I think it's to "country" for you.

Exactly!!!

I love A Good Day, too. It's country, but not twangy country.

See-- I totally disagree with this. Every time I hear this song, I cringe at the "twang" he tries to put into some of the words. Listen to words like, "Laterrrrr on" and "at the outerrrrr edge", the way he holds the r's, , cringe worthy!!!

I do like:
"When the sun creeps in and the fog rolls out
And the trees stretch up beyond a shadow's doubt
Some make a wish and some like to pray
But everybody just wants to have a good day"

It just sounds like he's trying to hard to make it sound a bit country. JMO.

I really enjoy A Good Day, too. I do know what you mean about the r thing though, but I still like it. Makes me feel good!

I like that line. I think it's cute! Love the entire song but I guess I like just the twang even though I'm not really a country fan.


I vote Tell ma What You Dream.

TBF, I know what you mean by the 'rrrrr' thing too, but it's never bothered me. It's funny how songs are like that - sometimes it's just a small part that makes you like it or dislike it. I really like A Goods Day. In fact, (surprise surprise) all of the Expando songs in the game, except for WBFS, are at the top of my list.

I vote for White Boy From Sacramento.

I love A Good Day. It is a bit country, but that's one of the reasons I love it. It reminds me of Timothy's Poco days.

While not my first choice, I'm going to vote for Tell Me What You Dream. I fear some other anti White Boy fans may surface and it will be a goner...

[zeldabjr]

It's funny how different people hear different things in songs....I never thought A Good Day sounded country at all...hmm....and the "Laterrrrr" thing I notice but not at all in a bad way...I really like that song.

Well as I said before I definitely think A Good Day has a country sound. But when I think of 'twangy' country, I think of someone like Gary LeVox or Randy Travis, and IMO, Timothy's vocals don't come close to that kind of twang. His country drawl sounds more like Keith Urban to me.

Anyway, I'm going to stick with the song I've voted for the last few rounds. I'm really ready for it to go ...

I cast my vote for Something Sad.

I vote for 'Make you feel my love'.
