I like Halloween and Moon Over Marin, but it is like trying to pick a favorite child.

His voice is so different i could listen to him sing all day.

Damn this is tough. I can't pick one... Chickenshit Conformist, Hellnation, Straight A's, Chicken Farm, Moon Over Marin... give me any of them and I'm happy.

I love the lyrics and delivery of that song.

To me it's "Holiday in Cambodia". Maybe "Bleed for Me" as well.

My personal favorite Jello song is probably "Can God Fill Teeth" by Lard, though.

There's a lot to choose from, but these two are true quotable classics.

And I'll second Kill The Poor and add California Uber Alles strictly for the brilliance of these lyrics:

Now it is 1984
Knock-knock at your front door
It's the suede/denim secret police
They have come for your uncool niece
I had the pleasure of seeing the dk's back in the old days - circa 1981/In God We Trust, Inc. era - and Jello had quite the commanding stage presence. What a blast...

My coworker, who is a big fan, says Holiday in Cambodia.

It's pretty hard to decide. I guess Kill the Poor and/or California Uber Alles are my favorites.
