While most of my top 1O DT songs are more proggy and I lean toward the epics, Surrounded is usually in my top 3 often number 1. Song is beautifully arranged, JLB's best recroded vocal IMO, lyrics speak to me and I really don't get the AIDS interpretation at all, JP's solo, (ok I know Flock of Seagulls, whatever, I don't care). After all these years I choose Surrounded more often than any other song when I want an intense "hit" of DT to distract me from the crappy things that F up your day.
I know there are other Surrounded fanboys, and while not the definitive song to showcase and describe who DT is, this song just transcends in so many ways. The verse after JP's solo with the incredible vocals, arpeggios and a pinch harmonic to boot just bring the bumps after all this time. Flawless IMO.
