Holy cow, I am way behind! To catch up in one burst:
35. Something From Nothing (15). I love, LOVE, the vibe on this song. Mark Zonder turns in some fantastic drumming, and Ray sounds so good on this. This song takes you on a journey, and I for one love the ride.
34. The Strand (24). Again, the overall mood is really great here. Feels kinda slinky and bluesy, in a way. The chorus is a killer.
33. We Only Say Goodbye (NR). Cool song, but kind of a weaker point on Parallels for me.
32. The Apparition (44). My favorite from The Spectre Within.
31. Another Perfect Day (34). Close to the consensus on this one.
30. Island In The Stream (NR). I think this one just missed my top 50.
29. Shelter Me/Circles (NR). Shelter Me is the superior version, but Inside Out feels like it has too many songs at the same tempo.
28. APSOG X/XI (NR). Man, looking back at my list, I'm sad this didn't make my cut, because this is a great song. If I were to redo the list today, it would be on there.
27. APSOG V (17). Highest ranker from that album for me. I love Mark's drumming under the "I won't apologize, I won't soliloquize," section. That pattern is really fun to play, and very challenging!
26. Outside Looking In (20). Man, if this song had better production, like Theories of Flight production, it would be an absolute banger. Still, one of my favorites from Inside Out.
25. APSOG IX (NR). Again, if I redid my list, this would end up making it. Great ballad.
24. Part of the Machine (11). Just missed my top 10. Again, a great song to play along with on drums. I love all of the shifting time changes and how all of the verses are completely different.
23. Wish (36). Great atmospheric album closer.
21T. APSOG VII (26). I think this is a clever reprise of the Let Nothing Bleed Into Nothing chorus. Love the almost industrial feel to this one.
21T. Pale Fire (25). This song benefited immensely from showing up on their recent live album, where it felt meatier and overall had more weight to it.
