Least favourite song from each DT album

Tomislav95 · May 13, 2011, 05:47:38 AM

I'm not sure does this thread exist so I opet it. It's weird to talk about least favourite song but I was bored

.On most albums I like all songs but I decide althought it was difficult.
My list:
WDADU - The Ones Who Help To Set The Sun
I&W - Wait for sleep
Awake - Lie
FII - You not Me
SFAM - Through My Words
6DOIT - Overure
ToT - Vacant
Octavarium - Answer Lies Within (hardest choice for me)
SC - The Dark Eternal Night
BC&SL - The Shattered Fortress

OK. Prepare for some controversial opinions.

WDADU - The Killing Hand
Images & Words - Wait For Sleep (a 9.5/10 song for me)
Awake - Toss-up between Erotomania and Innocence Faded
FII - Hollow Years
SFAM - The Dance Of Eternity (my least favourite DT song)

TOT - This Dying Soul
Octavarium - Never Enough

The Letter M · May 13, 2011, 06:39:35 AM

I started a similar thread earlier this year that asked people what their least favorite songs were by album, and then to order them to see which song was their favorite of their least-favorites. Oddly enough I don't recall ever making my own list, but here's the thread if any of you want to peruse it.

Mladen, you posted that today, but 4 months ago, you posted...

OK, lets give this a shot...

1. Another day
2. Regression
3. Misunderstood
4. Lifting shadows of a dream
5. Vacant
6. The Dark eternal night
7. The Ones who help to set the sun
8. The Shattered fortress
9. The Answer lies within
10. You not me

How did "Regression" become better than "Finally Free"?

Also, Dream Team - your list is exactly the same!

I'm sure there are a few others who posted here and in my older thread, check it out and see if your list is different than 4 months ago lol

six - disappear
tot - vacant
8v - talw

liquidtension · May 13, 2011, 10:45:05 AM

WDADU - Only a Matter of Time (Reminds me of early 80s NWOBHM/Paul Di'anno knockoff)
I&W - Another Day (Never cared for the intro)
Awake - Erotomania (Not bad at all, but I tend to skip it in a shuffle)
FII - You Not Me (It's always had a clumsy, unfinished feel to it - despite the changes made)
SFAM - Regression (Skipped virtually every time)
SDOIT - Solitary Shell (Another one that just bores me - the drumming seems off in my head)
ToT - Honor Thy Father (Don't care for JLB's vocals in this - reminds me of Mike Patton at times)
8VM - TALW (Big letdown after the first track)
SC - TDEN (Portnoy "shouts" annoy me, otherwise cool)
BC&SL - TBOT (I just never listen to it)

I'm sure I could change these with one listen through the albums - some I haven't heard for a while and going from old thoughts. And I'm sure many would think I'm ridiculous for a couple of them).

WDADU-anything but The killing hand or ytse jam
I&W-Pull me Under
Awake-They're all pretty equal but I think I'll go with Scarred
