It was posted at 2AM, so you could argue that he was going to post it later that night.

Yer I'm from england so it was 7am for me when I posted that :p

5. Finally Free

Ok so we enter the top 5 with such a brilliant song. SFAM is such a beautiful album, and this really is the high point of the album as it really finishes it off so well. The orchestra intro is such a great build up. The piano work at the start is so cool. James's voice on top of it is just perfect. I love how the verses are all from different points of views. The whole story is such a great story and the twist is brilliant. James's voice is brilliant the whole way through. And the highlight for me definitely is the chorus. This is probably my favourite DT chorus. Its just so good. The guitar work, the harmonising back vocals. How they change each time, first one being acoustic, second one being heavy, and the third one with the mix of the two. So epic. Couldn't have been better, oh wait then there is the outro riff. One of DT's best riffs and portnoys drumming is just incredible.

Interesting. I really like the layering the goes on throughout the song. Wouldn't make my top 25 but still good nonetheless.

Great effing song. I love the tubular bells before/during the One Last Time reprise.

Oh yeah, and especially the transposition into that nasty guitar riff.  Love it!

The only real thing that kills it for me is Victoria's horribly yellow teeth.  And Nicholas scratching his nipple.

This.  Dude, you're taking forever.  Whenever you get back, finish your list.

Plus, they're not even long write ups either. They'd take like 5 minutes tops to write.

Jarlaxle

Anybody on a vacation probably doesn't have the time or doesn't have the opportunity to spend half and hour on a computer to update a top 50 list. What I'm wondering is if he knew he was going on vacation, he should have finished his list before he left.

Well...we can guess his top four in the meantime.  How bout this--the person that guesses correctly gets to go next.  What say you?

1.  Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence
2.  Octavarium
3.  Learning to Live
4.  The Count of Tuscany

It wouldn't take me 5 minutes to do the same length writeups that he does. That's what I'm getting at. But I understand he's on vacation and all, its just irritating.

No, but 5 minutes each maybe with 4 songs left would be 20 minutes. I don't know where he is on vacation, but he probably doesn't have internet access.

Yeah a quick 15 second post to tell everyone why he isn't updating his list.

I wasn't telling him to do them all at once. Taking 5 minutes to do #4 wouldn't be so hard, would it?

Jarlaxle

It would if he didn't have an easy way to access the internet. Either way it's stupid to argue about it, he's not updating it either way.

AwakeFromOctavarium

I suggest moffatt do Top 4 to Top 2 in one post. The list is way too delayed imo.

jag66

after all this wait the top 4 is going to be oh so predictable like

burning ma soul
prophets of war
raw dog
you not me


pmahoney1337

What is it that determines who goes next? Did you just randomly make up that list on the first page. Sorry for my ignorance I'm just really confused.
