Woah A Fortune in Lies is cool! At least, the LATM version is, and thats not too  much different from the original.
Anyhow, TWHHTSTS is pretty unmemorable, so gets my vote

A Fortune in Lies' chorus is good...but it doesn't touch anything else on this list.   And I would *EASILY* put TOWHTSTS in my top 5 on this list.   Really catchy chorus, I catch myself humming it all the time.   Best song and chorus from that entire album.

Yeah, A Fortune In Lies is at least memorable (unlike TOWHTSTS), though it is crappy.

Also, what do you all think of combining two albums per poll? If it were one album per poll, there would only be about 5 songs each. But if done this way, some albums are going to get kind of raped (like WDADU) and not get into the finals at all.

So much hate for The Ones..., I find that chorus extremely catchy. :sadpanda:

Another Day gets my vote. It's good but just... there.

What is exactly the Another Day-chorus? "You won't find it here?"

Anyway, Another Day.

I'd say it's no biggie since, you know, on Images survivors there's songs that go out in the first or second round but they'd absolutely rule on less strong albums. Strong survivors are just not that kind in general.

I'd say the best solution is to separate the albums. Either that, or sticking the less-loved albums with other less-loved albums and seeing what you get?

Is the "And walking to the window" bit of Surrounded not a chorus? It kinda repeats with "He stands before the window", even if it is a bit different. I'd say its as much a chorus as Another Day
