The thread title pretty much sums it up.  Do you want me to list and defend my choices for top five 2nd and 3rd song combos on a DT album?  Absolutely!  Top five Mike Portnoy fills that only use a snare drum?  I'll at least attempt to.  Think of whatever you want and I'll do it.  Hopefully as this thread grows discussion of the lists will pop up and we might talk about weird DT related angles that we've never even thought of before.  Or the thread will die ignominiously.  Either or.

UPDATE:  I finally did it.  Here it is.  Now I need to think god I'm still alive afterwards.

Top five song intros?

Top five choruses?

Both basic, I know, but I'd still be interested.
