Favorite Buffett Song - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

OK, guess who's a Parrothead?

Like many long time artists, I don't have just one favorite, but faves from many different periods of his work.

Just a few:

Living and Dying in 3/4 Time
Tin Cup Chalice
Lage Nom Ai
One Particular Harbor
Cover of JT's "Mexico"

Just wanted to see if they're any other P'heads here.

Phinz up!

Good to see some other parrot heads out there.

Some of my favourites are:

One Particular Harbour
Son of a son of a sailor
Gypsies in the palace
little miss magic
we are the people our parents warned us about
and of course Margaritaville and Cheesbuger.

So many great songs. Makes me want to go get on a sailboat in the caribbean.

Son of a Son of a Sailor is perhaps the best song ever. However, the version from "Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays" has the most intoxicating female vocalist I've ever heard -- Honestly, I get chills every time I hear her voice. Incredible!

JohnnyRock · 01-20-2004, 10:11 AM

Don't listen to him much these days--used to hang out with some big PHeads...but gotta go with:
Son of a Son of a Sailor
Come Monday

steelerz · 01-20-2004, 10:29 AM

All the other ones mentioned plus
Mother Ocean
The weather is here, wish you were beautiful

Nadirah Shakoor is her name. Formerly with Arrested Development. Quite a find. If you haven't get a copy of Don't stop the Carnival to her her featured on a number of songs. Flat out awesome.

You know, the thing I like about these songs is that there is seldomly a song listed that I couldn't include as a favorite during some point of my life.

Tophat665 · 01-20-2004, 04:17 PM

"A Pirate Looks at 40" for the lyrics
"The Weather is Here, I wish You were Beautiful" for the title, and
"Jamaica Mistaka" for that neat little riff

I love Jimmy Buffet's music. My brother introduced me to his music a few years ago and I have been a huge fan ever since. I would have to say "Come Monday" is my favorite song of his, but all of his songs are great.
