Why is it in a third round of different songs people still crushing why certain songs are not on the list? People just vote on the damn songs. It's Kev's prerogative.

The Garden, Marathon, The Pass, Animate, The Necromancer, Subdivisions, Red Sector A.

I meant to vote Red Sector A but forgot to uncheck Analog Kid. Oops.

Ok....THIS one was HARD!!!

I have about a dozen "must haves" on this list. 

I ended up settling on:

Marathon
Between the Wheels
What You're Doing
The Analog Kid
By-Tor and the Snow Dog
The Necromancer
Subdivisions

But it was PAINFUL to leave off:

Working Man
The Garden
The Pass
Bravado
Here Again
Clockwork Angels

Definitely the hardest of the 3 polls (first was a piece of cake, and the second was more challenging). I went with:
Marathon
Between the Wheels
The Analog Kid
By-Tor and the Snow Dog
Headlong Flight
Red Sector A
Subdivisions

Just missing the cut were:
Anthem
The Garden
Working Man

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.

Much harder to settle on a final 2 in this one. I seem to lock in on 5 right away and then mentally fight myself over a final 2.

The Pass
Animate
Headlong Flight
Here Again
The Necromancer

Dreamline
The Pass
Time Stand Still
Red Sector A
The Analog Kid
Bravado
Distant Early Warning

I voted for those, but didn't see that Subdivisions and Marathon were available. I must have been asleep or something :biggrin:

I would probably switch Time Stand Still for Subdivisions and Bravado for Marathon.

Dreamline was such a great opener. I think that elevates it status beyond what the song itself warrants, at least in my book.
