I couldn't go with 5 because despite 2112 (as a whole) being my favorite song, only the first two parts count here since that is what radio often played, and I have never been crazy about that Eagles song.

From a Mega Man Legends island jamming power metal to a Walrus listening to black metal, I like your story arc.

Number 1 easily, but #4 is definitely my second choice.

TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

More Than a Feeling 4
Crazy on You 4
Show Me the Way 2
Total: 10

Carry On Wayward Son 4
Kid Charlemagne 1 (not sure I know this song but it's Steely Dan, so 1
Blinded by the Light 3
Total: 8

Tie Your Mother Down 2
Burnin' Sky 2
Prelude/Angry Young Man 1
Total: 5

Achilles Last Stand 2
Takin' It to the Streets 1
Breakdown 2
Total: 4

2112 Parts I & II 5
Life in the Fast Lane 1
Back in the Saddle 1
Total: 7

Wouldn't have thought it went that way, but not a lot of songs I like here. If pressed 2112 is my favorite album track of all time, but those other two songs brought it down so much.

I guess I'm the only one who really loves Back in the Saddle and Life in the Fast Lane?

Nah, actually I'm with you on that.  I'm picking Five, too.

What are you going to change your answer to?  :)
