Vacant....

yes I reset it.

The Silent Cody

And I will go with Far From Heaven, maybe because it's still fresh for me.

Disappear.  REALLY easy.

FFH vs. Anna Lee is tough, though.

I wonder what the results would be if you added Wait For Sleep and Space-Dye Vest.

JayOctavarium

I was thinking about it... but I wanted to stick with Jame's lyrics

They're all great ballads, but I'm going with Disappear. Anna Lee comes in a close second. I love FFH too, but it can't quite compare to the other two for me.

Exactly this  ;D

Disappear, far and away.  Far From Heaven is good, and so is Anna Lee, but Disappear is...well, it's fucking Disappear.

Anna Lee barely edges out Disappear; I also suspect that the former is very underrated.

With regards to FFH, I like it, but not as much compared to the given options.

Disappear. Although Wait for Sleep and Vacant should be in the poll as well.

WFS was written by KM, but Vacant should be here.

Mladen

Disappear, top 10 material for me.

With Far from heaven being really good and Anna Lee being kinda meh.

Sketchy

Dissapear, definitely, but I love the other two as well, especially Anna Lee. (I was briefly thinking Anna Lee but then I remembered the "so I'm moving on..." bit of Dissapear, which is just brilliant.)

I love Far From Heaven but Disappear wins by a country mile.

This order for me, but Disappear has a commanding lead.  In fact, I would never even think of comparing it to the other two at all.

Anna Lee is terrible, Far From Heaven is cool, and Disappear is a fucking masterpiece.

Neuth

I used to love the crap out of Disappear, gave me shivers, and I'll even admit it was a little tear jerky, but as it stands right now I like Far From Heaven just that bit more. The lyrics/ meaning of the song relate to me more than Disappear, but Disappear also OH GOD DO I HAVE TO CHOOSE!?

serrano

Anna Lee is really underrated and i like it, Disappear is way overrated (IMO).

2.AL
3.Dissappear


...and i don't really care because i'm not really into ballads. :lol

lanemeyer

Disappear is an easy choice for me here. Emotionally it resonates with me on a much stronger level than the others (which don't really resonate with me at all... maybe FFH does a little). Also, I find the music in Disappear to be a lot more interesting, especially the contribution from JR.  The only thing I really like in Anna Lee is JP's solo, and that's not enough. I rarely listen to it anymore.

1.- Vacant  ;D
2.- Disappear
3.- Far From Heaven
4.- Anna Lee

Love them all! But Vacant is really really heartfelt and it's an amazing moment in the context of Train of Thought.

reneranucci

I voted for Anna Lee, I think it's a gorgeous piano ballad. Then Disappear and last Far from heaven.

Hoppipolla

Disappear >> Far From Heaven >>>> Anna Lee

I like Disappear a bit more then I like Far from Heaven but I like FFH A LOT more then Anna Lee.

jdprsaga

I like both anna lee and disappear.. i think they both are different so is kind of hard to compare.. but i gave it to anna lee

Disappear, no contest. I like FFH, but it's only about at-level with AL right now.

But where's Vacant?

Also, where's "The Answer Lies Within", "Wither", "Space-Dye Vest", "Wait For Sleep", "Through Her Eyes", etc. etc.  :lol

Of all DT's ballads, I'd say "Disappear" still ranks the highest. It's the only one that's made me cry, the lyrics and music are so touching and emotional, the others just don't come close to it's emotionally-moving feel and sound, except for maybe SDV.

Went with Disappear but I love all three. Disappear is just different.

The poll is about JLB's penned ballads.

In that case...where IS "Vacant"?

Also, could we include "Speak To Me" and/or "The Way It Used To Be"? Or perhaps "II. Medicate (Awakening)"?

Its hard to choose for one reason. Far From Heaven has the new car smell still, and will suffer from being too new as it hasn't been dirtied and in the rain yet.
