9. My Favorite Song My favorite song of this band is most likely With Arms Wide Open. I like this song because it really expresses the true feeling that people go through when an unwanted birth happens. The song is very expressive and emotional. This song is not a slow song it is a rock song. This song begins and ends with the sound of a heart beat that was some how recorded from the heart of a 10 month baby boy. I highly recommend this song to anyone who has the chance to hear it.
