Wishlist, easily, though Cropduster is a perfectly cromulent song. But Wishlist has that wonderful solo and is the rare love song that finds something interesting to say about relationships.

Wishlist is good but this is not even close.

Sorry Wishlist, Cropduster is just so nice.

I did. Wishlist. Riot Act is the worst.

Very hard choice here. Going with Cropduster because I had that song stuck in my head once for like an entire year.

I love "Wishlist" and I love the word "cromulent," but "Cropduster" has to take this one.

spenno helped turn me around on cropduster. i still don't love it, but it has really climbed in my rankings, and it gets my vote this round.

I love Cropduster, but I've really been digging Wishlist since this started.

This is a real coin flip between two very different songs that I like for very different reasons.

I'll have to go with my sentimental favorite Wishlist, which is a song we don't talk much about on this board, but it's subtle and beautiful and just right.

Plus Ed was able to get to the e-bow on it.

This is really close. Almost too close to call. But I went with "Wishlist".

Two songs I like a lot, and both have very different aims. I think for the moment I'll go with Wishlist; there's something really disarming about the simplicity, and Mike's little solo is one of his best moments.

I like Wishlist but Cropduster is amazing

I wish I could click with Cropduster and Evacuation the way RM has. Both songs have climbed their way out of the bottom and into mid tier levels for me though.

Cropduster is a top 10 PJ song for me and perhaps Matt Cameron's greatest contribution to the band. Wishlist is a fine little ditty but it's not on par with Cropduster. #TeamRiotAct

it's his second or third best, I think. It's a gem.

Cropduster is everything I wish modern-day Pearl Jam was more often.

Cropduster. I'm always up for it.

And wishlist is even one of my go-to lullabies that I have sung / still sing to my kids.
