his songs have traveled with me my whole life but it took me 30+ years to find my favorite:
the future.
things are going to slide (slide) in all directions
won't be nothing (won't be)
nothing you can measure anymore

give me stalin and st. paul
i've seen the future, siblings
it is murder

Anthem from the same album is also fantastic. This one gets me every time:
Every heart
To love will come
But like a refugee
