Just as soon as I belong then it's time I disappear
I painted my own Monna Lisa
No matter Howard I try
Pull my finger
Ora che ho perso la vista ci vedo di più
Shaman's trance
Mirror mirror on the wall
Breaking Bad
Victoria is real
......in all the light
Easter's never coming and even if it does, it's all locked down anyway
I'll break free of the Miracle it's time for him to gohuo

And geez, from now on, we have only heavyweights!!

Awake epic vs FII epic: SCARRED wins
SFAM derby: Fatal Tragedy wins
Bigass epics and contenders for the final victory derby: OCTAVARIUM

And literally my #1 and #2 favorite DT songs.... METROPOLIS wins

I use my sig to pimp some bands from Italy! Check out Elvenking (Power / Folk metal), Folkstone (Rock / Medieval metal), Arcana Opera (Gothic/Noir/Heavy metal) and the beautiful voice of Elisa!

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

How did Octavarium go from having a stranglehold on this tournament for three years to struggling against songs it had no problem beating in the past?
People figured out that the white thing that comes out of cows' titties could be drunk, and the relation between sweet desires and women's bellies growing up for 9 months. It can't be THAT hard to figure out how a trumpet works.”

I can't really answer this question, but for me, from the 12:15 mark, Octavarium is at the top of DT's catalog.  The problem is that the first 12:15 is a bit of a slog -- and, in particular, the 3:48 Continuum/steel guitar intro is maddeningly boring.  All that knocks the song, as a whole, down several pegs.

Learning to Live is no slouch.  It's one of the very few songs I place above Octavarium.
