This one's tough for me...I guess it all depends if I'm listening to the studio version or a live version.

This is a very competitive matchup - I love both tunes. I refuse to say which way I voted, but I had to choose based on how each song affects me emotionally.

To decide this one, I listened to a bootleg of last year's 9/11 show in Fredericton where they played both. Then I closed my eyes and picked.

You see, I find ATHM a bit hit and miss live. If I was judging it on live versions I reckon The Dire Wolf would easily win. Studio versions would be a lot tighter.

I think Dire Wolf is one of the few Hip songs where I prefer the studio version.
