Good for Your Soul (1983) is one of my all-time top-tenners.  I've loved this album so much for so long it's not even funny.  Any track from it would be a primo choice, but since they made an official video for "Nothing Bad Ever Happens" and it's readily available, I'm picking it.

I was privileged to actually perform the final track from this album, "Little Guns", during my recent Songfight tour.  The Seattle-based band Octothorpe ("Spud", one of Songfight's administrators, is in this group) recorded their own version for a Boingo tribute album, and since they were unable to complete the tour with their full lineup, I got to fill in on bass guitar.  That was a treat indeed.
