Afterlife.

And why do all the posts started by chaossystem make me feel tired after reading thru....?

After I read your post, I thought maybe my introduction to this poll was too long.

so...

I went back and re-read it. It COULDN'T be THAT.

If what OTHER people are making you feel tired because of what THEY are posting on here...I can only say: Sorry...can't HELP you there.
I can't stop the world from turning around, or the pull of the moon on the tide, but I don't believe that we're in this alone, I believe we're along for the ride...

You really think that posting what you voted for would influence other people?

I meant that it could be either a positive or a negative:

anyone who doesn't like me might vote against me out of spite-or-

...anyone who doesn't want to decide for themselves might agree with me just because it's easier.


But I WILL reveal my choices at a later time.

Are you serious?
Yes, he is serious.

OK.

Maybe I took what I was thinking a little TOO seriously.

Anyway, on this one it's "Only a Matter of Time," which has already gotten a respectable number of votes, putting it somewhere in the middle.

That joke is OLD, man!

My DAD still thinks it's funny after all these decades...

...that should give you an idea of how played-out it probably is.

It's the little room in the front of the plane where the pilots sit, but that's not important right now.

Why does this have to be so difficult and complicated?

Because you were not clear in what you were looking for and used two different questions.  Is it really that hard to simply copy/paste the thread title into the poll so that you have the same question in both places instead of two different questions?  Why is that complicated?

 :lol

I voted for The Ones Who Help To Set The Sun.

I love this song. It's so atmospheric and bombastic which can't be said for a lot of tracks on WDADU. However I concede that there are moments that I listen to and think "right, that's why people don't like it". I think this was before they mastered time signature changes and such and it just flows terribly. On fact possibly the worst flow on the album. But a lot of songs don't grab me like this one does. More detail in my top fifty thread (stay tuned for that).

I agree with everything you said except for the lack of flow bits.   I think the song flows AWESOME.     It's not even close, TOWHTSTS just floors me every time I hear it.  AMAZING piece.    Blows Killing Hand out of the water.

Am i supposed to vote for my favorite track, or the one I think is most popular with the fan base? Or "best sounding" as in the other polls? 

Results may vary.

The most popular dish served on Christmas day is Turkey. If someone asked me in a poll to vote for the most popular meal served on Christmas day I would vote "turkey" since that is the most popular. It almost reads like a quiz question.

However, if somebody asked me to vote for MY (I capitalised that word just incase you missed that I said my and not high or guy or fly or sky) favourite I'd vote chicken cos that's my favey even though it ain't the most popular.

No one is telling you you can't eat chicken for Christmas dinner.

With my family it's usually ham, pork roast, or a pork or beef rib roast.

I'm not even sure there is a "traditional Christmas dinner," and even if there is, I'm sure a lot of other people will "break with tradition."

Yes, but if you ask them, "What do you think the most popular Christmas dinner is?" They're not going to say, "The most popular is Cabbage Rolls and Caviar, because that's what my family eats."

I changed it, so hopefully now the question is specific enough.

I was hoping that everyone would know, without having to be told, to select their own personal favorite.
