Hate?
1. It'll finish no worse than 4th out of 9 tracks on SX's most popular album.
2. Spot #1 is a foregone conclusion anyway since the title track is, without doubt, the favorite of the album by consensus.
3. Accolade is a monster of a track as well, so it's not very likely that a normal-length track could compete with a song that has the double threat of being an epic that more than justifies its length due to the fantastic level of quality throughout its entirety.
4, Of Sins and Shadows has the double threat of being track 1 as well as being the designated ass kicker of the album. The track 1 thing isn't automatically an indication of quality, obviously, but it means that it'll probably be more well known by the consensus than any other track.
Based on all of this, any track aside from Accolade and Divine Wings basically has the #3 spot as the absolute highest spot it can finish in so even if Candlelight goes out as #4, it's more like it coming in at #2 all things considered.
