Re: MoraWintersoul's top 50 DT songs v. feeling my heart pull west

[MoraWintersoul]

Eve is definitely in the Top 9. Maybe even Top 5?

*watches and thoughtfully smiles*

6:00 in top 15! Too bad so few realize it deserves to be ranked that high...

Disappear seems like a song I could easily love but for some reason it has never really struck me - it misses something that would make me go

Yeah, I guess it's just one of those things you could like but don't. Kind of how I don't like Metallica much

[wasteland]

But... I wanted to take an educated guess 

[?]

And since I am allowed to guess:

Those 3 I&W songs
Eve
ACOS
Hell's Bitchin'
Blind Faith
BAI
The obvious #1

[Elite]

3 from I&W
Burning My Soul
Honor Thy Father
A Rite of Passage
The Great Debate
Your Majesty
Forsaken

----

And now the serious list:

Surrounded
Wait for Sleep
Learning to Live
A Change of Seasons
Eve
Space-Dye Vest
Hell's Kitchen
Stream of Consciousness
Breaking All Illusions

[MoraWintersoul]

Some of you have very good ideas of things correct order?

[wasteland]

But can you try to guess the correct order, assuming your choices are correct? 

ETA: You stole my ideaaaaa 

[?]

Not sure what the order for 2-9 will be, although I'm expecting to see ACOS and LTL in top 5, probably WFS and Blind Faith too.

[Scorpion]

Oh my god, I love your write-ups. The Metropolis one had me in stitches.

Soooo... guesses?

Surrounded
ACOS
Eve
Learning to Live
Hell's Kitchen
the obvious #1

...and some other stuff.

Calm yo tits

My new favourite expression

[MoraWintersoul]

Btw, every time someone tries to guess a song I do not have in my top 50, I feel so bad for not including them. I wish I had a top 60 or something. It seems, with DT, there's around 60-65 songs I like A LOT, then some 20 I absolutely dislike and the rest falls under "yes, cool shit, very cool".

Calm yo tits

My new favourite expression

It's not mine but I don't know where I got it from? 

[?]

^Yeah, I was sad too when I had to leave great songs like Don't Look Past Me and Misunderstood out of my list.

I also just realized that Disappear was #10 already and there are only 9 songs left! I edited my post and also replaced Anna Lee with HK - it'd be a crying shame if that song didn't appear in someone's top 50!

Love TCOS and 6:00

This is perhaps the best thing that has ever been written in a top 50 thread.  Ever.

And regarding Octavarium, I like every single section of it.  Just sayin'.  But if you have Eve in your top 10, we are not a match.

Milena, you should consider removing it, he's George Clooney's double...

Also, James, what the fuck.
"*sees a young couple out in public* I wonder what he'd do if she were diagnosed with a terminal illness *writes song lyrics*?"

You emphatic, slightly morbid awesome hell of a man.

Awesome. 

Five incredible songs indeed. 

[Lolzeez]

I have a weird feeling that Space Dye Vest isn't number 1. Just saying..

[MoraWintersoul]

Oh come on, you know me that well.

[Lolzeez]

It's just that I'm full of surprises and love surprises. In my top 50 albums list,I pretty much got all of you by surprise. () So,your number 1 might not be Strange Deja Vu. ( )

[MoraWintersoul]

9. Breaking All Illusions (A Dramatic Turn Of Events)
*sort of wishes the rest of the album was more like this*
*shuts up and gets over it*
A lot of things have been said about this song so I am not going to repeat them all, but instead say the bass-heavy pre-verse intro and JMX's name in the lyric credits helped establish the "this is special, this is something that doesn't happen often" feel and that the song didn't betray my initial expectations at all.

8. Hell's Kitchen (Falling Into Infinity)
This was actually at some point my favorite song of all time. There's something to be said about DT doing such an uplifting, simple instrumental; when I heard how gently JP treated the main melody for the first time, I got goosebumps. If you focus on the keys throughout the entire song, as well, you'll see why I adore Derek and FII so much.

This was also one of my first musical misunderstandings - when I made the mistake of playing some of my music out loud a couple of years ago, somewhere in the middle of the most epic, grandiose part of it, my sister (or my brother, can't remember who) said "turn that plodding, boring crap off, I can't focus on my homework." Yep.

[Lolzeez]

BAI is marvelous. And I rarely use that word.

[DebraKadabra]

BAI is outstanding. And I always use that word.

 

[wasteland]

I'm not sure if I ever told you that what you just wrote is what made BAI click to me in the first place, and to this day probably a top 3 ADTOE moment.

And Hell's Kitchen is majestic, I should interrupt You Go Now to go listen to it right away.

[DebraKadabra]

Just thinking about hearing/seeing BAI live is giving me MAJOR goosebumps.

[?]

BAI is marvelous.

This. I wouldn't rank HK that high, but it definitely is a top 3 DT instrumental and the ending is simply epic

[MoraWintersoul]

For me HK is top 2

I really hope they keep it for next tour.

I should interrupt You Go Now to go listen to it right away.

I hope so too.

Same here. Seeing it once is absolutely not enough, as with all great great songs.

I should interrupt You Go Now to go listen to it right away.

Now the album is over and I can do it without indian curses coming from you
