As with most great albums, my favourite song(s) changes from time to time, but recently I've found myself constantly hitting the repeat button after "A Man Needs a Maid", so that's my pick for today!

Loved the whole album with the exception of "A Man Needs A Maid". Wretched and sexist

The Needle And The Damage Done gets my vote

"A Man Needs A Maid" gets my vote. :grinthumb



Have to agree with the consensus opinion that there's not a bad track on it, but "A Man Needs A Maid" will always be my favorite. It really spoke to me when I first picked up a vinyl copy of the album in the $1 bin, my senior year in high school. It was December at the time, and really fit my mood. Definitely a wintertime song. I see the title track as being in the same vein, as well: that whole Thanksgiving-Christmas kind of vibe.



"There's A World" has some great lyrics, too, but I didn't really get into it at the time. Didn't notice it until I upgraded to CD in 2014, and then it totally blew my mind. :cool:

I've always loved the melancholy feel of Out Of The Weekend (I love the pedal steel) so that one gets my vote, although The Needle and The Damage Done is also a superb track.
