Worst Song from each album?
« on: May 26, 2015, 11:08:17 PM »
Dunno if this has been discussed before but I haven't been able to find anything other than comparisons between each album and su on.

Anyway, here's the deal, either the weakest or worst song from each album for you, let's see which one ranks the most dislikes.
Here's mine.

WDADU: Ytse Jam (Idk, I just can't like the studio version having so awesome live performances)
Images and Words: Either Another Day or Pull me Under (While they are cool, since the entire album is, I just rarely find myself listening to these, I think they're pretty weak compared to the other ones).
Awake: 6:00
Falling into Infinity: New Millenium
Scenes from a Memory: The Dance of Eternity (Absolutely love the track as much as the entire album, but if I had to pick a weakest one from this album, I'd go for the Dance)
6DOIT: Blind Faith
ToT: Honor Thy Father
Octavarium: These Walls
Systematic Chaos: The Ministry of Lost Souls (A song that I love and listen in veeery special situations, which are usually veeery apart from each other, since I can't really listen to it often)
BC&SL: Wither
ADTOE: Outcry
DT: The Looking Glass

And for you?

This is what I would go with at the moment:

Light Fuse and Get Away
Another Day
Lie
Just Let Me Breathe
Through Her Eyes (well, probably Through My Words or Regression, but I went with a real song)
The Great Debate
Honor Thy Father
Never Enough
Forsaken
Wither
Build Me Up, Break Me Down
Enigma Machine
And if spirit's a sign,
Then it's only a matter of time

I'll give it a go. I'm also gonna put some side notes in parenthesis.

When Dream and Day Unite- A Forture in Lies (Light Fuse and Get Away is close as well.)
Images and Words- Surrounded (Had to pick one. Images and Words doesn't have a bad song on it. They're all masterpieces.)
Awake- Innocence Faded (I was very close to picking Space-Dye Vest.)
Falling Into Infinity- New Millennium (I don't get the love for this song. It's the closest a Dream Theater song comes to being unlistenable.)
Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From a Memory- Through My Words (It's not really a full song so it's kind of unfair.)
Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence- The Great Debate (Another moment where I had to pick one but no songs are bad.)
Train of Thought- Endless Sacrifice (I'm not fond of This Dying Soul either)
Octavarium- I Walk Beside You (I actually like this song but it is the low point of the album for me.)
Systematic Chaos- The Dark Eternal Night (Decent instrumental section, good chorus, horrible verses and solos).
Black Clouds & Silver Linings- A Rite of Passage (Bad song barely saved by a good instrumental section. I love bebot though.)
A Dramatic Turn of Events- Build Me Up, Break Me Down (It's pretty bland but it's ok.)
Dream Theater- The Bigger Picture (This and Behind the Veil are just the songs in between Enigma Machine and Surrender to Reason for me, but Behind the Veil has just a little bit more to offer than The Bigger Picture.)

WDADU - Status Seeker, Light Fuse and Get Away, TOWHTSTS, OAMOT. I can't even split hairs here.
IAW - LTL - Instrumentally it's amazing, but the verses and chorus let it down. The only weaker song on the album imo.
Awake - Scarred or SDV
FII - YNM - I love the rest of the album, and while YNM isn't half as bad as people say, it's still very average and skippable.
SFAM - Through Her Eyes - There's not a bad song on the album, but this song doesn't have as much to offer as the rest of the album, so it's the least "essential". JLB's emotional vocals are the high point.
SDOIT - TGD - A great song and still an 8/10, but the rest of the album is just amazinger!
TOT - Endless Sacrifice - I used to enjoy it a lot, and I still love the instrumental section, but it doesn't interest me so much these days. I could still listen to it if I was listening to the album quite happily.
8V - Never Enough - This song still has some great sections, but it's a bit confused overall. TALW is a bit slow, but it's a nice enough song, and IWBY is actually a very well crafted pop rock song.
SC - PoW - I actually don't hate anything on the album, but I like this song the least. I still respect it for trying something new and different. The other "shorter" songs on the album are great.
BCASL - TSF - It works ok enough in the context of the whole 12SS, but it's mostly just a medley of much better songs. TBOT is the only other song I don't like a lot, but that has that incredible outro.
ADTOE - Outcry - I find it dull, and the instrumental section goes on far too long.
DT12 - The Bigger Picture - I don't find it memorable, and I don't like the chorus.
Only King could mis-spell a LETTER.
Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

Finding the weakest song from each album is actually much easier for me than naming the best song. And the weakest song can still be strong, it's just weak in comparison to other masterpieces.

WDADU: The Ones Who Help To Set The Sun (just not memorable enough)
I&W: Under A Glass Moon (nice guitar solo but just not that good as a song)
Awake: Lifting Shadows Off A Dream (doesn't grab me)
FII: You Not Me (not as bad as some make it out to be, but not that good either)
SFAM: The Dance Of Eternity (too much pointless wankery)
SDOIT: Disappear (just bland for me)
TOT: Vacant (doesn't feel like a song, more like an intro for Stream Of Consciousness)
8VM: The Answer Lies Within (nice but nothing special)
SC: The Ministry Of Lost Souls (too long, too disjointed, chorus is boring)
BC&SL: The Shattered Fortress (as a closing section for the suite it's ok, as a standalone song there's too much repetition and too few new ideas)
ADTOE: Build Me Up, Break Me Down (kinda boring)
DT12: Along For The Ride (nice but nothing special)
Must've been Kwyji sending all the wrong songs.   ;D

WDADU - Light Fuse And Get Away (The intro to TOWHTSTS saves it from being the worst)
I&W - Another Day (Pull Me under being a close second)
Awake - Lie (This one's tough since the album is very consistent)
FII - You Not Me (Burning My Soul is quite close though)
SFAM - Through Her Eyes (except for Regression and Through My Words, still a great song)
SDOIT - The Glass Prison (Love this song, just not as much as the rest of this fantastic masterpiece of an album)
ToT - As I Am (Great opener and one of Petruccis mot badass solos, despite this, all the other tracks are even better)
Octavarium - The Answer Lies Within (it's an okay song on an otherwise great album)
SC - Constant Motion (Great instrumental section, horrible verses and chorus)
BC&SL - A Rite of Passage (Great guitar solo, great chorus and I also like the bebot solo, but the verses doesn't do much for me)
ADTOE - Beneath the Surface (The most boring ballad they ever wrote)
DT12 - Along For the Ride (I like the heavier bridge, the keyboard solo and JPs guitar work, other than that this song has nothing to offer)

Still a decent list of songs though.

Yeah, I have no idea what the cakeless person in that analogy is meant to be eating. If he's got some sort of cake substitute, it should really have been worked into the narrative at some point. As it stands, the options are:

  • Hoard a cake just to stare blankly into its doughy edifice.
  • Make futile chewing motions with your mouth while starving to death.

The Silent Man (same as above)

SDOIT1. The Glass Prison
SDOIT2. The Test That
This Dying Soul
Never Enough
Constant Motion
A Rite Of Passage

WDADU - Light Fuse and Get Away probably, but I rarely listen to TOWHTSTS or Status Seeker either

Awake - The Silent Man
FII - You Not Me
SFAM - Regression or Through My Words
SDOIT - Misunderstood
TOT - Vacant or Honor Thy Father. Both still great though.
8VM - I Walk Beside You

I hate threads that ask for the "worst" whatever.  But on every album, there is definitely a least favorite, so fair enough.

WDADU - TOWHTSTS.  Never really cared for this song.  It just seems to meander all over the place and never grabs me.
I&W - Another Day.  Easy choice.  We already have Kenny G.   
Awake - Space Dye Vest.  I almost reconsidered this choice because the live version on BTFW is actually pretty good.  But I still don't really like the studio version at all.
FII - You Not Me.  No big surprise.
SFAM - Regression, I suppose.  Even after all these years, these songs still feel so hard to separate from one another.  Still a case where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts, but each of the parts feels so integral.
SDOIT - Blind Faith.  Despite some tasty bits, the lyrics kill it for me, as does the fact that there are parts of the song where I find myself tuning out.  Not a bad song by any stretch, but it feels so far below the very high standard set by the rest of the album.
TOT - Honor Thy Father.  But tough call.
8VM - The Answer Lies Within.  Just not interesting to me.
SC - Prophets of War.  Easily my least favorite song from the band.
BC&SL - The Best of Times.  Not a bad song.  But as I have said many times, I just do not connect to it.
ADTOE - Far From Heaven.  Another case of simply having to choose a "least favorite," since I like all the songs this album has to offer.
DT12 - The Looking Glass.  Same as with Far From Heaven.

The Ones Who Helped to Set the Sun (actually most of WDADU, but this one seems to drag too long for me)
Another Day (I don't dislike it. Just don't like it as much as the rest)
Scarred (please don't kill me, but just didn't like it as much as the rest. Something had to give, right?)
Anna Lee
Through My Words. (I play Regression as an Intro to Spirit Carries On live, but Thriugh My Words never really seemed like it should have been a seperate track from Fatal Tragedy, so I dislike it as a standalone track, not as a whole)
Disappear (really bums me out. Don't like feeling bummed out)
Honor Thy Father (took me the longest to get into this one out of the whole album)
Answer Lies Withun (another song that I don't dislike, but I just don't like as mushc as the rest of Octavarium)
Repentance (long and didn't really go anywhere, my least favourite song in the twelve-step suite actually)
The Best of Times (tell you the truth, I actually prefer the Mike Portnoy sing version to the LaBrie version, and just the least listened to off of BC&SL for me)
Outcry (if I listened to it more, I'd love it, but I just don't listen to it as much)
Looking Glass (feels way too much like a cover of something... Just not my favourite, I guess)

I won't say "worst song" but "least favorite" from each album.

WDADU - The ones who help to set the sun (I just don't feel it, it seems like a reaaaaaally long song besides the 8 minute mark)
I&W - Pull Me Under (Because it's not as majestic as the other masterpieces, although it's an amazing song)
AWAKE - Lie (It has a simpler vibe than the other songs, but I like the ending)
FII - Lines in the sand (Don't know why but I can't stand the begginning)
SFAM - Through My Words (Because it works like an intro to Fatal Tragendy)
SDOIT - Blind Faith (I really like this song, but I listen more to the other 5 songs)
TOT - As I Am (Good song, but the others are better)
8V - These Walls (All 8V songs are amazing, but I don't listen this song as much as the other 7)
SC - The Dark Eternal Night (Didn't like the rapping thing)
BC&SL - A Rite of Passage (Can't listen to this, the instrumental part and the Petrucci's parts on the chorus are pretty good, but overall is not their best)
ADTOE - Build me up, Break me down (Better than AROP but it's kinda the same)
DT - Behind the veil (The less solid song on the album)

I too have to take exception to the term "worst."  There are very few DT songs that could even fit this description.  When asked to do this for each album, I had to name some songs that are actually very good.

Here is my list:
Only a Matter of Time
Surrounded
Lifting Shadows off a Dream
Anna Lee
Through My Words (only because it's the shortest track)
Blind Faith
As I Am (Awesome song but I had to pick one)
The Answer Lies Within
Repentance
The Best of Times
Beneath the Surface
Surrender to Reason

Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence - The Great Debate
Train of Thought - Stream of Conciousness
Octavarium - The Answer Lies Within
Systematic Chaos - Prophets of War
Black Clouds & Silver Linings - A Nightmare to Remember
A Dramatic Turn of Events - Build Me Up, Break Me Down
Dream Theater - The Looking Glass

I think that's about right.

At least half of these are still pretty good songs.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Light Fuse and Get Away (I still manage to like this song though, the section right after chorus 2 is really good)
Pull Me Under (still really good)
Erotomania (a fun song but not as good as the rest)
Burning My Soul (probably least favourite DT song, but still good)
One Last Time (the SDV reprise I find the vocal phrasing a bit odd)
Blind Faith (I could have picked any song because it's all fantastic)
This Dying Soul (most of it's good, but the ending was a bit unnecessary)
Can't pick one for Octavarium!! XD (maaaybe Panic Attack but even that's amazing)
Constant Motion (not very good in comparison to the rest of the album)
A Rite of Passage (still a good song)
Build Me Up, Break Me Down (a good job at a poppier metal song though)
Enigma Machine (really fun to listen to, but the rest of the album makes me feel better inside)

WDADU: Status Seeker
Images and Words: Wait for Sleep
Awake: Innocense Faded
Falling into Infinity: Just Let Me Breathe
Scenes from a Memory: Dance of Eternity
6DOIT: 6DOIT (which I like several parts of, but if we count it as a whole song which I really don't, it would be this one because I don't like several of the parts/songs)
ToT: Honor Thy Father
Octavarium: Full Circle.  I love every song but 8V is almost unlistenable because of this one part.  I need to make an edit without Full Circle. 
Systematic Chaos: None.  Seriously, this is one of my two favorite albums. 
BC&SL: Wither
ADTOE: None (my other favorite album) although I rarely listen to Far from Heaven
DT: Enemy Inside

Status Seeker (2/10)
Another Day (5/10)
The Silent Man (6/10)
Just Let Me Breathe (4/10)
Through Her Eyes (4/10)
Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence (8/10)
Honor Thy Father (7/10)
Sacrificed Sons (6/10)
Repentence (5/10)
Rite of Passage (3/10)
Far From Heaven (7/10)
The Enemy Inside (7/10)
