Hey, this is easier than the previous one! Being both great, I've always preferred Mood for a Day to Clap. I've the feeling I'll be outvoted here, but that's how it is...

Every time Howe is about to start his solo I mentally go "Mood for a Day, Mood for a Day, Mood for a Day...". So far, it's worked almost 50% of the times. I won't claim I'm gifted with any psychic powers, but will keep on trying, though. My dream and aim is being able to take full control not only of Steve's solos, but of the band's whole setlist at shows. Just give some time...

Well this is a neck-a-neck horse race at the moment 2 votes each!

[yarstruly]

There's still time to vote!

Gato - I'm in complete agreement. I prefer Mood for a Day as well.

[Earl Grey]

Not that I dislike 'Clap'. It's the stuff, ya know?

But 'Mood For A Day' has class. I know that one of our members played it as a finale, during a Bach guitar recital (That was 'Yesmandroc' who did that: where's he been lately?). What a cool thing!

'Mood' has all of the class and 'panache' of a true classical piece by Sor, Pagannini or Giuliani. A lovely thing, and I sometimes forget just how charming it is. I'm charmed. Mood For A Day.

I guess I am the odd man out...I love Clap! (I love Mood as well but not as much)...maybe it is because I never had much trouble learning Mood...but Clap has always eluded me...
