Using the winners of the polls for each full-length studio album...vote what you think is the best three of these 11.  Those three will advance to the finals.

****VOTE FOR THREE OPTIONS****

I'll take the options from I&W, Awake and FII.

Zydar


wasteland


Scorpion


Lucien

I&W, 8VM and then it was between ToT and SC. Went for Train of Thought in the end, because PoW drags the other group down too much and I didn't expect there to be many votes for SC anyway ;D
Whoaaaahh, ohhh, ohhhhh. Whoaaaahh, ohhhhh, ohhhhhh. Waaah, ahhh, haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaowwwwww

Unlegit

Images and Words, Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, and Train of Thought.

?

WDADU, Awake and ADTOE. Too bad I had to leave the I&W option out :sadpanda:

Dellers

The ones from SFAM, SDOIT and Octavarium. One of the latter two could have been switched with the I&W run though.


The King in Crimson


Daso

Pretty easy choice, I&W, FII and ADToE. Would've voted for Awake because of LSOAD and Scarred, but Lie felt necessary.

The Letter M

Went with SDOIT, TOT and ADTOE. Almost voted for SFAM and 8VM, but TOT and ADTOE just won out.

Ruba

WDADU, IAW, Awake. I would have chosen Blind Faith/Misunderstood/The Great Debate instead of WDADU, but it wasn't an option.

Almost hyperventilated trying to choose until I saw that I could choose 3.

Ended up going with the ones from I&W, SFAM and ADTOE.

gm5k

Since I don't care for any of the 3 song run choices besides the one on FII...FII.

Ah damn just realized that SFAM one is pretty great.  Oh well too late  ;D ...Never a bad thing to give FII more love, it needs it  :tup

RoeDent

I&W, 8VM and ADTOE

Nine of the eleven options are the last three songs on their respective albums.



Lark the Starless

1. One Last Time/The Spirit Carries On/Finally Free
2. Lifting Shadows Off a Dream/Scarred/Space Dye Vest
3. Hell's Kitchen/Lines in the Sand/Take Away My Pain

yorost

ToT and WDaDU

...then I wish I could change my vote off of SC. I missed SFaM for some reason.

Too many of these runs have my least favourite songs off of their respective albums.

BlobVanDam

IaW / SDOIT / ToT.



Incidentally, the songs from Awake happen to be what I voted as my bottom 3 run of DT songs run. :lol

I'll take the options from I&W, Awake and FII.

I would have done this if FII had Trial of Tears.

I voted I&W, SDoIT and ADToE... something doesn't feel right about voting for the ADToE option, but after coming back to this thread a few times and thinking it over, there's really no better choice here for me. Those are three beautiful songs  :tup

robwebster

Christ. Not made up my mind, yet, but looking at those winners... DT sure know how to close an album!

ETA: Images and Words, Train of Thought, Octavarium. There we go.

TAC

I&W, Awake, and 8V.

If the ODTOE was Outcry/FFH/BAI, I would've gone with that.
Quote from: wkiml on June 08, 2012, 09:06:35 AMwould have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Quote from: Stadler on February 08, 2025, 12:49:43 PMI wouldn't argue this.
