*Whew*...that's a lot of tracks to have to type in to each field. With that in mind, because of my work schedule, updates on THIS particular survivor might not be very regular, or in the mid-afternoon as I start this. I can typically sneak in a few minutes here and there at work at my computer, but this one might take awhile to input. We'll see.
Anyways, PLEASE VOTE FOR SEVEN TRACKS for the maximum results. In the next round, it'll be SIX votes per voter, and then five, and so on and so forth, til we get to round seven, where it'll be down to 1 vote per voter til the end of the survivor.
My plan is to eliminate the 7 songs with the most votes this round, and any ties will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. I don't think there will be many debates on this in the first couple rounds anyway, given the sheer amount of tracks this album has, so yeah, go ahead and vote the NOMACS tracks and 2 more with your votes! :tup

The NOMAC tracks, The Walking Shadow, and My Last Farewell. I don't think I'm posting my overall ranking for this album because I have never actually taken the time (lol) to think out a full ranking of 34 (really 29) tracks.
-
After the nomac tracks I'll be lost for a while. Without going back and listening to the album again, I honestly can't tell a lot of those songs apart by title.
-
Probably because of the amount of titles, but two of them are wrong: Moment of Betrayl and Whispers in the Wind... It's Whispers On the Wind.. :tup
Anyways, voted for the NOMAC tracks, Brother and Hymn..
Three Days
The Walking Shadow
Just wow.. Those two are not just among my favorites in this album, but in the whole MM era..
-
Whispers in the Wind... It's Whispers On the Wind.. :tup
Didn't even notice that and I voted for it :lol :facepalm:

I'm not surprised about WotW being voted out... but 2285 Entr'acte?... I thought it was a bit more liked than that..
Honestly I thought all the ballads would go first (besides the Nomacs).. I like them all, but even *I* will go after them in a few rounds... Well, probably in the next round already, since we'll have 6 options to vote for..

but 2285 Entr'acte?... I thought it was a bit more liked than that..
It's nice, sure, but it's a minor overture, what makes it good is the themes that are the bulk of actual songs. It's the equivalent of a movie trailer for me.

On the contrary, I think it's pretty good on its own.. And, actually, rather than a trailer it'd be more like a sum up of the previous songs.. The themes in it are all from disc 1, not disc 2.. (actually I made a vid of it, mashing up the quoted sections with their respective parts of one of the Luna Park live versions of 2285: https://youtu.be/1l21mKx6X9A)
Besides, IMO it does a great intro for MoB; especially the transition, which is probably the nicest DT musical transition (so no BMU,BMD/LNF or any songs from 8V) from one song into another since the ones in SFAM, although the DO/TGoM is very nice as well..
