They go in and out of my top 10 for the day just as much as any other albums. Usually The Count of Tuscany, Lost Not Forgotten, Outcry, Bridges in the Sky, Breaking All Illusions, Surrender to Reason, or Illumination Theory.

TCOT isn't from 2010 onwards... ;)

I only have my top 6 really figured out, but BITS is either #7 or #8. BAI and maybe also IT would make my top 20, but I'm not sure where exactly they would end up in the rankings.

I don't have a top 10 set in stone, but IT and BAI are definitely strong candidates.


Sycsa is perhaps the most brilliant and insightful man I have ever encountered.

Top 10? None. Maybe in the top 20.
This.  BAI and IT for sure.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Two or three, I'm not sure now. TITL is my #7, BAI is my #9 and depending on my mood either BTS or Wait For Sleep can be at #10.

I don't know if it's a bad thing (it probably is!), but there are also two songs from 2010 onwards that made it to my top 10 least favourite DT tunes.
This first band is Soen very cool swingy jazz fusion kinda stuff.

I do not have, or never thought about, a top 10, nor any kind of DT song ranking. But i'm sure BAI, The Bigger Picture and IT to be 3 of the most beautiful songs they've ever written, IMHO of course.

Lol whoa whoops! That's funny I don't think I've made a mistake like that in a LONG time  :lol

...but why does it say 2010 and not just 2011?? Just for Raw Dog?

I was originally going with "Mangini Era" but then went for 2010, the year he joined, to keep the focus away from MM, as I was trying to minimize the chances of the discussion strayint from the original question.

I'm not sure if BAI is in my Top 10, but it's definitely in the Top 15.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Bridges in the Sky #5
Illumination Theory #6

I've begun to appreciate BAI a lot more, especially after seeing it live, but it still doesn't make the top 10. That, along with Outcry, StR, and TBP would make my top 25 though.

Enemy Inside is awesome and has "aged" (it's really not old at all but still) extremely well for me. I'm not sure I would put any songs into my top 10 but EI, BITS and TBP are all pretty close.

I think one thing to keep in mind is that with the number of records they've put out, Top 10 is really a very exclusive and arbitrary boundary. I would probably like songs ranked 10-6 pretty equally, and have a few more to sneak in there if I could.

I just ranked all the DT songs within my Windows Media Player in order to answer this. I think it took an hour.
And I have two songs from the Mangini era of 2010 and onward in my top 10.
They happen to round out my top 10.

Outcry at #9
Illumination Theory at #10

[nothing on DT12 is in my top 50 and it's probably saved from being the "worst" album simply by nature that WDADU is such an outlier for the band]

Once again, it's hard to tell. Illumination Theory and Breaking All Illusions are there without a doubt. Surrender to Reason could be making it, but I'm not quite sure. It's tough, I tell you, being sure about your own opinion  :lol

One in Illumination Theory, with Breaking All Illusions nearly making it there.

Never went thru and made a top 10 list, but I tried to the best I could - man it was hard! Anyhoo, only BitS managed to make it to the top 10 for me.
As a basic rule, if you hate it, you must solely blame Portnoy. If it's good, then you must downplay MP's contribution to the band as not being important anyway, or claim he's just lying. It's the DTF way.

None, but if I redid my list Breaking All Illusions would be top 5.

If I had to pick one I'd say Breaking All Illusions, but honestly it's not really in my top 10. Learning to Live is, however, which is what BaI is modeled after anyway. It's still the best song off ADTOE though.

I kinda REALLY liked DT12, there's at least 5 songs from there I would put amongst my Top 20.

Along For the Ride is my favourite DT ballad for sure.
