And when we get to our top 5 (next round) we will revert back to polls.

The Lotus Eater

Ranking of my top 5 based on songs here:

1) The Drapery Falls - Perfect in every way. His vocals, the instruments.....Man. The introduction and outro guitar is almost... Psychedelic. That theme is soo catchy and memorble in every way.

2) Bleak - The beginning verses with his growls....Sends shivers. It's kinda erotic for me lol.  Also his singing part is a top 3 vocal moment for me and the end, man!

3) The Moor - Digging it all. His growls, the aggressive section, two of em actually and the quiet one. Really solid solid song and I haven't listened to this song a whole much. Strong first impression.

4) When - Introduction. Enough said. Nice lyrics and one of only songs I enjoy from pre Still Life as well as Epilogue. That organ is amazing.

5) Deliverance - Really nice song and sexy riffs, but to me, the ending drags on too much.

Only a prog fan would try to measure how much they enjoy a song by an equation. :lol

Sacrilege! XD
Deliverance is regarded by the fans as their best.

My list is completely opposite of yours with the exception of When.

Re: Scar

If that's the case, then so be it. Deliverance is a top 10 Opeth song for me, but the other five would be higher in that top 10 ;p

I'm interested to see how this will turn out.
This may be a silly question but is your favorite Opeth song here?

I'm gonna guess "The Drapery Falls", cause that's my favorite song. :P

And TDF has a 1/5 chance.
