Another Hand technically isn't part of The Killing Hand, but whatever

I approve of these choices
i wanted to include AH, but I figured I wasn't allowed.

Not allowed?  Nah, it is your list; you can do it however you want.  Hell, if I did a DT top 50, I would probably do "A Mind Beside Itself" as one song, regardless of whether or not people consider it one song or not. :biggrin:
That would be pretty interesting.

Another hand..is that another song or is it just something they added and decided to call it "Another Hand"

It's an instrumental piece they wrote as a transition from Another Day to The Killing Hand during live performances.  There is no studio version.

35.- Speak To Me
Beautiful song I don't have any more words to describe it, I still wonder why it didn't end up in the album.
The 5years in a livetime is THE definitive version of the song.

34.- Repentance
Some people see this song as the worst from the 12SS, well, it's not.
A really nice work from Jordan and Myung especially the later this is a very bass-driven song and  as always awesome solo by Petrucci.
If they ever play the 12SS live this is going to be the "sit and sing-along" song of the set.

33.- 6:00
The most fuckawesome Drum intro DT has done to date.
This is another short song, but not really radio friendly, it's just kinda wierd but still awesome.
The samples here are really great. Greatest way to open any album.
Someone refresh my memory, is there any guitar solo on this song?

32.- Eve
BEAUTIFUL

31.- Anna Lee
The best ballad from FII, Derek is a great piano player as seen on this song.
Great lyrics and vocal melodies by LaBrie. The guitar, bass and drums just complete this song and make it even more awesome.

Seventh Son

*Sees Eve is in the list*
Fuck yeah! Really underrated song. And props for putting Repentance up there too. One of the few bright spots on SC.

It'll either be INTPOE or The Ministry of Lost Souls. I'm really hoping its the latter.

I take it you're not gonna do hints? If I ever do get one going, I'd probably do that. It would definitely make it more fun.

Ok the next 5 songs are:
One demo
2 from Scenes from a memory
2 from 6DOIT

Seventh Son

-Not familiar with the demos.... so I'll pass on figuring that out
-Dance of Eternity?
-Fatal Tragedy?
-Uh... Misunderstood?
-Blind Faith?

BRGM

Yeah, those are gr8 songs, Misunderstood and the dance is easily in my top 10...or so

But it doesn't get exciting until the top 10 so u can just speed it up until then! :D :lol     imo

I really have to echo everything in this post. Eve is just stunning. I heard it for the first time not too long ago. Also, kudos to Repentance for being such a tasteful song.

Off-topic: I'm listening to SSOASS title track right now. :metal

In all honesty, probably not.  But it's still a really cool song.

The last 5 choices are very interesting, although only Repentance and 6:00 would make my top 50.

BRGM

Repentance is good, the rest is pretty meh...but Speak to me is listenable though, I like the JR Piano version of it.

AwakeFromOctavarium

Your post quality is getting better, BRGM. Just a remark.

I know! :D :D I'm working on it by checking my posts before posting them! :D

30.- Misunderstood
THE most experimental song DT has done. Great chorus and lyrics by Petrucci, the guitar solo has this scary vibe and its awesome. Rudess does a great wok on this sing to i love his keyboard parts.
The only downside of this song is the long outro, it goes on forever and thats why the 'Greatest Hit' version is better.

29.- Finally Free
The best lyrics MP has done in long long time and the best way to end SFAM, it has a lot of well put together musical and lyrical reprises, the OLT reprise is great i love that part. Great solos, great piano work and that nice drum solo at the end.
I love the LSFNY version cause of the little jam at the end.

28.- Disappear
This is a really emotional song whoever says DT has no feeling needs to hear songs like this one.
Rudess shines on this one, awesome keyboard work. Another piece of great lyrics from LaBrie.
I really did not expect a song like this after the first 4 song on 6DOIT.

27.- To Live Forever
Another demo. This song is pure magic.

26.- The Spirit Carries On
Another emotional song, Petrucci's awesome lyrics and THE best solo from SFAM.
To be honest I never listened to this song until last year, i don't know why i did that i feel stupid.  :P
And again the LSFNY is beautiful, the gospel choir and Theresa Thomanson vocals makes it a really special song.

Glad to see Disappear, but it would be a lot higher up for me. I was right on Misunderstood. And The Spirit Carries On is simply beautiful. Great choices!  :tup
