If you had to pick one single song that not only encapsulated everything you like about Eisley, but also gave a good representation of their style in general, what would you pick?

I'm thinking either Marvelous Things or Memories.

First off, props to Mr. Pine MR PINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
However, I do not feel that it is THE best representation of the band. I have to go with Marvelous Things.

Marvelous Things, I think that it gives the best impression of the band's general sound.

That's a hard one. Although it's not my favourite Eisley song, I would say Marvelous Things. It has a very single-ish sound to it, yet the melody, harmony, lyrics, and rhodes really show what eisley is all about. Plus, I think Chauntelle's guitar part is amazing on that song.

But Escaping Song, or Lady of the Wood are close seconds for this! (they are also my two favourites.)

It was "the Eisley song" for me when I first heard the album.

I would have to agree with most of you here. Marvelous Things is a great song that could be Eisley essential.

Marvelous Things. It isn't my favourite, but it seems to always be the song that gets people hooked. As a matter of fact, it was the one that got me hooked and everyone else I know hooked, so I actually do use this song when giving people a listen.

Marvelous Things or One Day I Slowly Floated Away, for me....

Memories is a close second, though.
