Wow, this is hard. The weird thing about Dwight is that pretty much all of his songs are good (with few exceptions.) Mine would probably be:
- Nothing
- Dreams of Clay
- If There Was a Way
- Carmelita (an amazing remake of the Warren Zevon song with Flaco Jimenez)
- Buenas Noches from a Lonely Room (esp. the acoustic version sends chills down my spine!)
I also love South of Cincinnati, A Thousand Miles from Nowhere, Long White Cadillac, The Back of Your Hand, It Only Hurts When I Cry, Thinkin' About Leaving gosh, I love 'em all!

A great Dwight song that was released as a single but wasn't a big hit for some reason was "Sorry You Asked," It's one of my favorites and also has a stylish and quirky video starring Harry Dean Stanton and a roller rink I believe. Anyone remember that one?

I've never seen the video, but I do love the song. I love its mariachi inspired style, plus the lyrics are pretty darn funny. I have a sick obsession with the album the song is on ("Gone"). I've only had it for a year and I've almost worn it out. Sad, 'eh?

Does he sing that song where it's like
I'd go anywhere clear out of sight twice around the moon holding on tight take my by the hand hold me by the heart with you with you I'd go anywhere?
If so could you tell me the name of the song and if not and you know the name of the song could you tell me it? thanks -
