With A Return to the Sea out, I could go several ways with my next vote. I'm going to go Sleepwalker, but Nightquest and the two Nightwish demo tracks are close to it as well.

Yea, the older bonus tracks are my least favorite here.  I could go many ways since I don't have a strong enough opinion on the older ones.

I think Nightwish and The Forever Moments (along with Etiäinen, which was the third and final Nightwish Demo track and later became part of Lappi) are really interesting from a perspective of hearing the original direction of Nightwish as a Tuomas/Emppu/Tarja trio. And I think it would be interesting to have a whole album in that style. But ultimately those are not among my favorites because they're a little long for what they are and because the other bonus tracks are better.

But still, I think the Nightwish Demo is a solid set of songs and is actually really good for a first demo before figuring out their musical direction.
