Title: Neal Morse Survivor 2021 - The Similitude Of A Dream - Round 1
Post by: The Letter M on February 09, 2021, 01:38:22 PM

The Similitude Of A Dream
Long Day
Overture
The Dream
City Of Destruction
We Have Got To Go

Draw The Line
The Slough
Back To The City

I'm Running
The Mask
Confrontation
The Battle
Broken Sky - Long Day (Reprise)

We've finally arrived at the first NEW album for this survivor, TSOAD, a mammoth two-disc concept album from Neal (his third following Snow and Testimony). Like with those albums, the first few rounds will feature MULTI-SONG VOTING, so please read carefully and VOTE FOR FIVE songs this first round! Each successive round will allow everyone to vote for four, then three, then two, and then one song each from there to the end. Typically, I do this to speed along the process of voting out songs that a majority of fans find as filler or less-impressive than some of the benchmark songs on these long albums, but looking at the tracklist here, that might prove more difficult because of how good most of this album really is (compared to albums like Testimony and Snow, though I *love* Snow, I'll admit there are some weaker songs on there).

-Marc.

Oh, man, this is going to be fun!

We Have Got To Go

The Slough
Shortcut To Salvation
I'm Running

Shortcut was the only one I picked immediately. I needed some time to figure out the rest.

I have to listen to this album again, I always listen to it in one sitting (or two) and never know which song is playing... I'll have to figure out which song is which.

That's also issue I have with these recent double albums where each track bleeds into the next.
