Slow, Love, Slow... an interesting take for NW but not the type of music to get me going like the rest of the songs do.

At least we both have great enough taste to like Nightwish. ;)

Rest Calm is bloody amazing.

I Want My Tears back is not and it's time for it to go.

Song of Myself, but I'm fine with I Want My Tears Back leaving too.

Slow Love Slow is amazing, definitely my favourite on the album.

Rest Calm. I feel schizoid listening to it - I don't know if it's supposed to be a ballad, or a heavy rocker?  I wish it would make up it's mind - and be one or the other, not try to be both... it just doesn't work for me.

Restiiiiiiiiiiing in a dreeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaamm oooooooooohhhhhhoooooooo

Yeah Rest Calm. These are all absolutely stellar, fantastic songs. But Rest Calm, basically for the reason of a milder version of what jingle.boy said.

IWMTB deserves to stay and fight another day. It's a pretty cool synthesis of metal and highland bagpipe stuff. I find myself singing it a lot. Hopefully any remaining voters agree and we can keep it around a little longer.

How can you quote the best moment of the whole album and then vote for this song?

Before this survivor started I thought Rest Calm will easily make Consolations. I had no idea people didn't like it enough. Shame.

I quoted the best moment of the song to show my love for it :heart before having to, unfortunately, wound my beloved.

The best moment of the album, actually, is "Sometimes the within is piano black, piano black over cleansing waters." Helped by Anette's accent.

Both these survivors are killing me. I'm listening to EFMB right now to make the impossible decision of which of my six tied for first place favorite songs on that album I'm going to vote for. And I just had to vote for Rest Calm, which I love. Because I'm definitely going to need my tears back by the time these album survivors are over. :'(

This is actually one of my less favourite parts from the song (I'm not saying "least favourite" because that's the part of the narration starting with "Ever seen the Lord smile?"). Funny how that works.

Imho the best moment on the album is the Ghost River chorus. It's probably my favourite NW chorus ever.

I love this, although the bridge in GR may be the best part of the album... or the isntrumental part in IWMTB.
