1. WFS/LtL
2. AMBI suite
3. FFH/BAI/BTS
4. Another Day/Another Hand/The Killing Hand
5. The Mirror/Lie
6. Vacant/SoC
7. BmS/Hell's Kitchen/LitS

It doesn't really seem fair to put Hell's Kitchen-->LitS together with one of my least favorite DT songs. Without it, those two would probably be ranked 4th.

1. Vacant/Stream Of Consciousness - Love everything about it. One of the band's best ballads followed by a juggernaut of an instrumental. I wouldn't change anything about it.

2. Burning My Soul/Hell's Kitchen/Lines In The Sand - Unlike a lot of people, I haven't got a problem with Burning My Soul. I think it has some good riffs and an awesome Sherinian Showbiz solo. And I don't even need to go into Hell's Kitchen/Lines in the Sand.

3. Far From Heaven/Breaking All Illusions/Beneath The Surface - I know it's still a bit new, but all three songs hold their own just fine in my opinion and they work together really well. The best sequence of songs that could possibly end ADTOE.

4. Another Day/Another Hand/The Killing Hand - This one was really kind of creative, I think. A nice addition to the live show that holds together Another Day and the criminally underrated Killing Hand.

5. Wait For Sleep/Learning To Live - The musical references between the two are flawlessly executed. The WFS piano line fits perfectly into Learning to Live. Unfortunately, I'm not such a fan of Wait for Sleep by itself. Nothing wrong with it per se, just... kind of unremarkable. Otherwise it'd be higher.

6. Erotomania/Voices/The Silent Man - This one'd be higher too, but I'm sorry... I can't stand Erotomania... it's my least favourite of the DT instrumentals.

7. The Mirror/Lie - Nothing wrong with the two songs, just not as good a sequence when compared to all the others. Plus I have to be in the mood to listen to The Mirror all the way through.

So there. Thanks if you read this.

The Mirror/Lie (same as AMBI)

Where is Another Day/Another Hand/The Killing Hand a sequence?

Live.  That's where Another Hand came from:  They used it as a bridge between Another Day and The Killing Hand during live shows.

This.  Except, I think I would move number 5 to the bottom.  Keep in mind that I think all these are great.
