Although this is one of my favourite DT albums, this was an easy choice for me. BAI and BTS are two of my three favourite tracks from the album, and FFH works wonderfully as a lead-in to BAI, not to mention being highly underrated, and in my opinion their best piano piece, just a little better than Vacant. I pick the last option. :metal

Shadow Ninja 2.0

It seems like I pick the last option on all of these :lol. Seriously though, those three are my favorites from the album.

?

FFH, BAI and BTS, for the reasons stated in the OP.

I went with the last option.  It was tough not to pick something with Bridges in the Sky, which is my favorite song on the album, but at the same time, my second and third favorites are Beneath the Surface and Breaking All Illusions.  So, yeah.  Last option. 

The Letter M

Option 7, the last "side" of the album, the run of FFH/BAI/BTS is just incredible.

In a CLOSE second would have been Outcry/FFH/BAI, but really, any of the last 4 options (including TITL onward) would be easy choices.

Although BITS is my favourite from ADTOE, I picked the last option because it's such a dramatic ( :neverusethis: ) ending to the album.

Though it pains me because LNF is one of my favorite songs from this one... gotta go with FFH/BAI/BTS.
Look at all us freaks cluttering your city streets
Still scalping their ticket-less applause
Spun monkeys on the railroad track, take me to the caine field; I walk along pick my spiderbite
Basically Kyoko Kirigiri

Unlegit

Outcry, Far From Heaven, and Breaking All Illusions. Two great extended songs and a nice ballad.

Arrrrg!

My favourite songs are spread out. As in, completely spread out. On the Backs of Angels, Bridges in the Sky, and Beneath the Surface. That's the maximum amount of "spread out" achievable. Which makes this almost impossible to vote on.

I went for Lost Not Forgotten, This is the Life and Bridges in the Sky, but it's not much more than a pin in a map.

Quote from: BlobVanDam on December 11, 2014, 08:19:46 PMHef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

This is the Life/Bridges in the Sky/Outcry just beats Outcry/Far From Heaven/Breaking All Illusions for me.

BAI is my favourite on the album, but I really don't care for Far From Heaven.
Whoaaaahh, ohhh, ohhhhh. Whoaaaahh, ohhhhh, ohhhhhh. Waaah, ahhh, haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaowwwwww

Lost Not Forgotten/This is the Life/Bridges in the Sky

The three best songs on the album imo, and all of the other groupings include weak songs that I don't particularly like.

Destiny Of Chaos

Lost Not Forgotten/This is the Life/Bridges in the Sky

Easiest choice yet.

Lolzeez

Outcry/Far From Heaven/Breaking All Illusions
