Even though it gets too much play on classic rock stations and streaming, Surrender is a great tune. I'm with pieceofme.

Yeah if someone asked me what they sound like that's the track I'd play.

"Surrender" for me as well, though "Dream Police" would be a close second.

Today, I'm saying "Voices". I've always loved the outro after the guitar solo.

Am a very casual CT fan. Don't own anything, seen them open a bunch of times, and they are always fine.

I'm guessing the hardcore fans (if they have any) will hate this, but I love the Flame.

Yeah Surrender is hard to argue against.

But if you've seen them perform "Gonna Raise Hell" on a super ON night...damn, hard to beat that.

Gonna Raise Hell, from the Music for Hangovers album, is absolutely killer. I think I read that Robin or Rick said it felt like the walls were breathing during the performance of that song.

Surrender is probably the quintessential CT song, but that performance of Gonna Raise Hell...fucking smokes.

Reach Out on the Heavy Metal soundtrack is a favorite I've never heard on the radio, and sounds like it could have been in an 80's movie montage, but Surrender is the answer.

Great tune. Covered that one in high school also. Most of our set was Cheap Trick, The Baby's and UFO...
