Eh, OtBoA's probably still too new and shiny for me to rank it objectively in any kind of list, but... I'd say it's probably #1 or 2 on SC, maybe #3 on BC&SL.  Definitely in the top half of both albums. 
Sincerely,
Jaffa

The only songs on either album better than OtBoA are ITPOE Pt. 1, Repentance, and TCoT.

OTBOA would possibly be my favourite song on SC (although ITPOE Pt.1 gives it a run for its money), while it would rank second or third on BCASL, behind TCOT and maybe Wither.
... And you ask me: "Where's my hairspray?"

On SC, probably 3rd?
On BCASL, probably 4th?

It's been a slow grower, so my opinion of it isn't really settled into place yet.
Only King could mis-spell a LETTER.
Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

Best song on SC by a landslide, second best on BC&SL to the Count.

Best song on SC by a landslide, second best on BC&SL to the INSTRUMENTAL VERSION OF the Count.

My exact thought, should the quote be modified as such.

Far too new for me to say yet. If I had to guess it would be in the top 3 of either album.

Kind of a cool thread though...

For me it is easily better than anything from BC&SL.  On SC I would rate In the Presence of Enemies higher but that is probably it.

OTBOA is a pretty good song.

first on SC. Second on BC&CL behind TCOT.
