Dayvan Cowboy is my favourite song of all time. By anyone. So for me, it would have to be that.

If you're going by plays in the past couple of weeks, it would certainly look like Tomorrow's Harvest transmission and Reach for the Dead were my top two.

Anyway, wow that's a hard question...

1. Happy Cycling
2. Dawn Chorus
3. Satellite Anthem Icarus
4. Dayvan Cowboy
5. Basefree

Those are probably just my most listened, though I've had peacock tail as my morning alarm for months now...

The songs I really always go back to are 5.9.78 and Telephasic Workshop.

Julie & Candy/ Buckie High/ Left Side Drive/ Echus/ Olson

i love the understated sense of humor that abounds here.

5.9.78 - the song i would like to hear on my last day to reflect on/replay my life

music is math - the song i think about when i see the old 8mm footage of my first days ... in diapers trying to eat a balloon instead of cake.

roygbiv - destroyed two car stereos with these filthy, naughty, delicious beats

happy cycling - if this is playing, you will even enjoy the ride on flat tires

peacock tail - this song renews me, like a freshly shaken etch-a-sketch

corsair - when i do my favorite hike here (near Big Sur) i get to the top of a ridge where i can look down and see the ocean and watch hawks circle - they wrote this song just for that. thank you very much Sandison bros, you shouldn't have - but i appreciate it nonetheless. :wink:

so jealous you get to hike here. It's the most beautiful place on earth in my opinion, although the Hoh rainforest gives it a run for it's money. But Big Sur is just so...I don't even know. It's godly.

I've been doing this hike for 10 years and each time I remind myself how lucky I am. Then I turn on my BOC mix and begin the ascent! Hoh rainforest/river is quite a gem (i imagine thats a nice spot to play Whitewater on loop). I will be hiking near there in a couple of months. Guess we are all blessed in our own way.

my favorite boc song changes every few months.....

but recently i've been getting really into 'skyliner'

the last two minutes or so are just so epic

Roygbiv is definitely ONE of my favourites.

As heard in this advert, I think...

It's soooo hard to choose, but I think Julie and Candy is the fullest representation of the spectrum of BoC. After that, there's probably 5-10 of their tracks that are interchangeably #2 for me, which include Music is Math, Gyroscope, Sunshine Recorder, Kid for Today, beautiful Place out in Country, Unkown Live @ Warp10, Eagle in your Mind, Sixtyten, Smokes Quantity, and Happy Cycling.

I like a ton of their old/bootleg stuff too, but the tracks above are always playing in my car/itunes/heandphones/etc.

Everything you do is a balloon/Aquarius/Telephasic workshop/Hi Scores/Macquarie Ridge

Tue May 28, 2013 9:57 pm

The five or so tracks I think I've listened to the most times:

Dawn Chorus, Poppy Seed, Oscar See Through Red Eye, Happy Cycling, Kid For Today, Sixtyten.

I recently rediscovered and got obsessed with Whitewater.

roygbiv is probably my favorite song of all time by anyone ever.
other favorite boc tracks include olson, gyroscope, the constants are changing, sixtyniner and dayvan cowboy.

It's interesting how diverse everyone's favourites are.

Tue May 28, 2013 11:16 pm

Been really into Poppy Seed latley, i think i may have a new favorite

Tue Jun 25, 2013 8:31 am

Kid For Today/IABPOITC are my current faves. So dreamy.

Tue Jun 25, 2013 9:03 am

Kid for today.

If i could have a theme song that played everywhere i went, that would be it.

Tue Jun 25, 2013 11:30 am

New in at number one is: Poppy seed reprise closely followed by poppyseed. Both are superb for strolling in the sunshine.

Tue Jun 25, 2013 12:54 pm

Sunshine Recorder is as close to perfect as anything. But 'absolute' favourites are very tough to define with BOC as we know, plus TH is still sinking in even now. Nothing Is Real really does something special for me

Tue Jun 25, 2013 2:07 pm

Telephasic Workshop is probably my overall favorite but its too hard to narrow down songs into a top 10 or anything, i'd just get carried away and list too many.
