4: Lost Not Forgotten
5: I Walk Beside You
6: Overture
7: Innocence Faded
8: You Not Me (could be worse)
9: Ministry Of Lost Souls (about ten minutes too long)
10: Through Her Eyes (HATRED)

Awake - Lifting Shadows
Falling - You Not Me
Scenes - One Last Time (a toughy)

ToT- Honor Thy Father ( another toughy)

WDADU - 4-way tie between Status Avoider, Hear Song and Get Away, The Ones Who Help To Empty the Room, and Only a Matter of Talent.
IaW - Wait For Sleep (mostly because of the length. Still a fine song)
Awake - Scarred. For. Life.
FII - You Not Me (enough said?)
SFAM - Through My Words (and that's only because it's so short. There is just not a bad track on this album)
SDOIT - The Great Debate (still amazing, it's just surrounded by 10/10 songs, so 8.5/10 doesn't quite cut it)

Quite tricky to rank some of them. TBOT grates on me quite a lot, but I put it #6 because it has some nice redeeming qualities like the intro and Petruccis solo.

That's genuinely a fantastic little playlist! I could happily listen to that.
Mine would be something liiiike...
1. Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence
2. Outcry
3. The Answer Lies Within
4. Home
5. The Ministry of Lost Souls
6. This Dying Soul
7. Another Day
8. The Shattered Fortress
9. Take Away My Pain
10. Lifting Shadows off a Dream
11. The Ones Who Help to Set the Sun
Keeping in mind, though, that Octavarium, A Dramatic Turn of Events and Six Degrees don't really
have least favourites. It's more a case of which is the least perfect. In fact, all of six and up, I love quite substantial bits of.
This isn't too shabby a list either, come to think of it. Man, Dream Theater are excellent.
1. Pull Me Under
2. Disappear
3. Far From Heaven
4. The Best Of Times
5. Vacant
6. Regression
7. Lifting Shadows Off A Dream
8. The Answer Lies Within
9. Take Away My Pain
10. Regression
11. The One Who Help To Set The Sun
Still like the top 9 and really like the top 5 of that list though.
Interesting way to rank songs. There is quite a bit of distance between the top of my list and the bottom, so I included my arbitrary ranking numbers. In my ranking list of all DT songs the average ranking is 8.18 and the median is 8.5 for reference, so the top 3 songs are above average (for DT) and honestly the last 2 songs are the only 2 i wouldn't just fire up in the player outside of the album.
1) Far From Heaven - 8.5
2) Never Enough - 8.25
3) Innocent Faded - 8.25
4) A Nightmare to Remember - 8.0
5) Blind Faith - 7.5
6) Honor Thy Father - 7.5
7) Another Day - 7.0
8) Through My Words - 7.0
9) Just Let Me Breathe - 6.5
10) The Killing Hand - 6.25
11) Constant Motion - 6.25
1. Under a Glass Moon
2. Lie
3. The Great Debate
4. Regression
5. On the Backs of Angels

I know I'm not making any friends with my first choice. It's an amazing song, no doubt about that, but the other songs on Images are a little more unique in my opinion.
WDADU - Light Fuse And Get Away
Images - Wait For Sleep
Awake - Space Dye Vest

Scenes - Finally Free

WDADU- I don't have a least favourite track. Love them all.
I&W- UAGM. Used to dislike it but it's grown on me.
Awake- CIAW. Could have been IF but that has the awesome outro.
FII- JLMB. Not a fan.
SFAM- Again, no least favourite here. Every note is perfect.
6DOIT- TGD. Takes too long to get going- still lots of great stuff in the song though.
ToT- HTF. Don't like it though there are some good parts.
8V- The Answer Lies Within. Insipid ballad for DT who usually do the well.
SC- Tie between CM, TDEN, and Repentence. These would be my 3 least favourite DT album tracks. The other half of the album is excellent though.
BC&SL- AROP. I don't hate it but the iphone solo grates a bit.
ADTOE- OTBOA. Again I don't dislike it but if there is a weak spot on the album this could be it.
