BAI followed by BITS.
Every song is really awesome, though.

This, but every song is really awesome besides Far From Heaven, it does nothing for me at the time. Maybe it will change ;)

My answer depends on the day.  BAI and BiTS clicked immediately for me, I had a brief affair with BMUBMD, and the past few days it's been This is the Life and Beneath the Surface.  I'm really really happy with the album though.

PC could you please put CURRENTLY in the title, I really don't think it's logical or fair to pick a favorite or even rank the songs this early.
So CURRENTLY my favorite is LNF :)

Lowdz

I voted for UAGM, Metropolis and LTL.  :biggrin:


But really I haven't a favourite at this point as I'm still wallowing in an awesome album. Don't even have a least favourite track and, fanboy that I  am, I can't remember the last time that happened with any album.

As much as I love all of them, BTS went straight to the core of my soul.  I feel that song will end up being on my all time from all artist list.

"Bridges in the Sky" is one of the best progressive metal songs I've ever heard.

Breaking All Influences is definitely my favorite so far from a very strong album.

I'm still totally undecided. Don't think I'll ever be able to decide.

Bridges in the Sky
Breaking All Illusions
On the Backs of Angels
Beneath the Surface
This is the Life
Outcry
Build Me Up, Break Me Down
Lost Not Forgotten
Far From Heaven


Gaps between songs are not that far, meaning this album is consistent while being excellent. BITS wins it for me, with BAI being very close. I still adore OTBOA as well, and I am wondering if that is because I played it 1,000 times since the day it was released. Even then, it's still a great song and to be my third speaks of the staying power of the top 3 from this album (hopefully).

Really hard to choose, my current favorite is probably "Bridges in the Sky," but "Beneath the Surface" had me for a while after first listen, and "Breaking All Illusions" has to be the best of the album. I'm sure the song I want to listen to most often on the album, which I would consider current favorite, will change now and then, but BAI will remain #1 as the /best/ song for me.

SO much better than "BC&SL"...was it really so difficult ?? :justjen

Masterpiece of the album: "Breaking all illusions".

Very good stuff: "Bridges in the sky", "Outcry", "Beneath the surface", "On the back of angels", "Lost not forgotten".

Average stuff: "Build me up break me down", "Far from heaven".

Poor stuff: "This is the life".

I don't know why I didn't vote in the first place. BAI of course!  :tup

Besides all the obvious answers (BAI, Outcry, LNF, and BITS), the song that really brings out many emotions in me is Far From Heaven. That tune is beautiful, and possibly the most beautiful song since Vacant. Beneath The Surface also does the same to me, but not always; only if I listen the album beginning to end.

cyberdrummer

I think if I'd voted when the thread was created, I would have gone for Breaking All Illusions. Now, I'd say Bridges in the Sky.

Same here. I thought this was a new thread until I started reading it. I voted for BITS though.

This thread came and went on the US release date for ADTOE.

Please explain why This is the Life is poor.

Lost Not Forgotten, because of the drum track. On the Backs of Angels too :D

Sorry for the misunderstanding, I just don't like the song...at all.

Breaking, Bridges, Outcry and LNF are pretty much interchangeable as the best song on the album(although I usually feel like BAI has a slight edge over the rest, currently I prefer LNF, before that Outcry was the favorite), OTBOA comes closely behind. The rest is much weaker material, but the album as a whole is amazingly strong. 

aprilethereal

BITS, BAI and BTS are the biggest standouts for me

Can't believe I never saw this thread.

BAI easily.  The majority is correct on this one.  :tup

Surface, followed by Bridges, followed by Angels.

The rest is basically a free-for-all. Remarkably consistent album. Heaven's probably at the bottom, and Build isn't much higher, but they're if they're the worst, they're the worst of a very good bunch.

BAI is my favorite with OtBoA on 2nd place.

Syzzle

Outcry, I thought this was a new thread like everyone else surprised I missed it.

Breaking All Illusions, followed by a tie for all the rest in a close 2nd.
