You won't find any opposition from me, but there's another song I'll have winning.

I apologize in advance, but I'm going with Cry for Freedom even though I don't know this song. It's the only song I don't know, though, so I just want to get on with it.

Majesty Demos
Not sure if I've ever heard it before. I might have checked it out once in a previous survivor (I didn't vote in the non-album track survivor this year though).

Just checked it out now and it was OK  :P But obviously voting for it first is the only choice for me.

Nice collection of songs overall here - there are about 5 or 6 I'd be happy with reaching the finals.

In a world where many great Dream Theater songs didn't make the Consolation an Fn Majesty demo makes it.....

Cry For Freedom. I've never actually listened to any of the songs from the Majesty days besides Another Won, but I can't imagine this song being better than anything released as Dream Theater.

Looks like Cry for Freedom will take the record for shortest time between 'booking' its Consolation place and getting eliminated.

Also, I can't remember if this is the quickest we've got to this stage of the DT Survivor. It certainly feels like it. Or maybe I'm just used to the League and its 20-week regular season lasting until May.

This is the quickest any DT survivor has ever gone. 24 hour deadlines instead of 48 and 2 albums going at once.

It is..

I count several songs which are less good than this one actually..

I've been blazing through it, definitely, but people seemed to keep up with this pace through my Rush Survivor last year, so I figured I'd keep the same format for DT, and the turn out has been pretty decent. I don't recall the numbers from the last DT Survivor, but getting an average of 30 voters per round is pretty impressive for me, as my Survivors typically get an average of half of that, if not less.

I'm glad that everyone seems to be able to keep up with this, as much as I have been able to myself, but once the Finals hits, it'll slow to a crawl.
