View Full Version : Favorite 10,000 Maniacs song?
Hey Y'all,
10,000 Maniacs was such a great group when Natalie Merchant was the vocalist and they had a ton of great songs, which was your favorite?
80sTrivia 3-31-02, 07:16 AM I simply love Natalie Merchant and 10,000 Maniacs had some fantastic songs in the late-80s. I voted for my favorite, "Like the Weather". I also loved "Peace Train"... 10,000 Maniacs sort of faded into the background once Natalie left, although they did score a minor hit a few years ago with their remake of Roxy Music's "More Than This" with a new lead singer... :)
djdaffy1227 3-31-02, 11:47 AM "Like the weather" is really the only 80's song by them I know although I have two of their CD's from the 80's. Just goes to show I love my 80's music :)
"Verdi Cries" is my favorite 10,000 Maniacs song. I also really like the song "What's The Matter Here"
I too, voted for "Like The Weather", but "Eat For Two" was a close second. I really liked a lot of 10,000 Maniacs early 90's work as well, especially "Candy Everybody Wants"!! :thumb: Great song!
I love Natalie's voice and her work with the Maniacs along with her solo stuff. I voted for Peace Train.
Steve Savicki 4-08-02, 08:01 PM That's "My Mother The War" (http://www.cdnow.com/from=sr-181894/cgi-bin/mserver/SID=1470116616/pagename=/RP/CDN/FIND/album.html/artistid=TEN+THOUSAND+MANIACS/itemid=321213) and that's the one I had to choose because "The Wishing Chair" is all I have of them.
Natalie Merchant's voice is wonderful. I voted for Peace Train.

Although it's not from the 80's my fav is These are Days. Natalie Merchant has an awesome voice.
angeleyes25 2-09-04, 06:43 PM I had a hard time picking between "Trouble Me' and "Like The Weather" but I went with "trouble Me".
mrs. taylor 4-20-04, 05:06 PM "Like the Weather" comes in first, with "Gun Shy" as my second favorite.
Glenn Gulia 4-20-04, 07:17 PM "Like the Weather"
jillybean 5-12-04, 07:17 PM Not 80's but I love "These are Days." I actually don't know any of the other songs. :bashful:
djfarstead 5-15-04, 10:46 PM I love all of them. Saw them in concert back in 93. But I voted for their cover of "Every Day is Like Sunday" which was a b-side to Candy Everybody Wants. Allthough it didn't come out in the 80's, it is still one of my favorites.

What's The Matter Here
Love the lyrics...so straight forward...
ElectricYouth 6-11-04, 08:14 PM My favorite was "Trouble Me". Loved the song a lot, with Like The Weather a close 2nd.
DJ Midas 6-11-04, 11:57 PM I went with "Eat For Two".
redhotchilipapa 6-26-04, 02:41 PM All good choices, but Verdi Cries moved me above all the rest. Great 'make out' tune. :mwaha:
Very hard to choose....I choose other, tie between Verdi Cries, and My How You've Grown.....Like the weather brings back some good memories as well. Aw hell, they are all good!
