2112 is an epic track, but pound for pound, Boston delivers more.

Lessons and Tears aren't anything worth writing home about either.

I dunno, I think Tears is beautiful. As for Lessons, it's still above average.  ;D

Boston.

2112 is good, but Boston is timeless.
The bones of beasts and the bones of kings become dust in the wake of the hymn.
Mighty kingdoms rise, but they all will fall, no more than a breath on the wind.

It's looking like another blowout.  And honestly, I foresee blowouts, or at least foregone conclusions, in the remaining 70s years as well (Animals in '77, Hemispheres in '78 and The Wall in '79). 

Things should get a lot more interesting in the 80s.

Then I can get back to participating in these  :lol

But I doubt my choices will be very popular, since most people around here have the mindset of "hurr hurr 80s music that isn't death or thrash metal, therefore it sucks." Oh well.

1987 is going to be a killer for me to narrow it down to 5.
