The TAC Roulette V.5...DTF Faves..WTF Am I Missing?? MastoDONE!

[TAC]

Did J-Boy do a group PM and bet everyone to send the same song?

[Kwyjibo]

I forgot what I sent, but it wasn't Welcome Home.

[TAC]

OK, I have a Wild Card™ to eliminate and then I'll give the final list.

[Crow]

My prediction for the second-most popular one: In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3

I sent neither!

my intuition suggests that TAC will not be able to get past SSTB/IKS Claudio who has always sounded noticeably different to Good Apollo-onward Claudio, but watch me be way off 

[Buddyhunter1]

Between Welcome Home and IKSoSE:3 Claudio sounds better on the latter tbh

[Evermind]

My prediction for the second-most popular one: In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3

I thought of sending that as I know it's popular, but I decided to stick with one album I know.

Maybe I did ... maybe I didn’t.

Between Welcome Home and IKSoSE:3 Claudio sounds better on the latter tbh

I think IKSoSE:3 (the song) is one of Claudio's less "weird" vocal performances.

I also did not send either one. In fact, I didn't send anything from either of those albums.

[TAC]

Oh, and I'll give up one First Impression right now...

'This song certainly is good.  But I guess I had higher expectations for the most sent song.'

[TAC]

Did J-Boy do a group PM and bet everyone to send the same song?

Maybe I did ... maybe I didn’t.

Maybe that explains my slight underwelment with it.

[ProfessorPeart]

Lowest score in the round goes to Welcome Home! 

[Crow]

i don't remember all of these songs off the top of my head but pretty much all the ones i do make perfect sense 

[Evermind]

I thought of sending The Final Cut but it has that outro which I thought Tim wouldn't like. Good on people who sent it though, it was my third choice.

[425]

My fate is tied together with Cyril and Puppies? I guess I could do worse.

Not as many IKS as I thought, and I'm bowled over that IV is the only Willing Well that was sent. If I knew none of y'all were sending I or II, I might have done that in place of NWFT. Unless they were wild-card-eliminated, which would find very surprising.

[HOF]

I guess I need to go see what Welcome Home is all about.

[425]

IMO: Welcome Home is not that great. It's a classic case of a radio hit that is shallower than a lot of the band's better songs.

[TAC]

It was a radio hit? I mean, I don't listen to the radio very much but..

[TAC]

Is Welcome Home akin to getting Pull Me Under in a Dream Theater Round?

[Evermind]

IMO: Welcome Home is not that great. It's a classic case of a radio hit that is shallower than a lot of the band's better songs.

I think it's the riff.

I certainly like Welcome Home more than the song you sent me in my roulette which was about Domino's going bankrupt I think?

[Crow]

see, i told him to use the version on the greatest hits compilation which excludes that outro

100%

Tim, your Spotify playlist is missing one of my songs.

Domino the Destitute wouldn't be among the top 10 songs I'd send today, but I still like it better than Welcome Home.


And yes, Welcome Home is basically Coheed's Pull Me Under, although Coheed has another sizable hit in A Favor House Atlantic.

[Kwyjibo]

So one of the songs I picked completely at random (Gravity's Union) is sent by three other people. Hopefully that's a good sign.

[425]

It's my personal favorite Coheed song.

Are you saying that song didn't deliver?

[TAC]

Tim, your Spotify playlist is missing one of my songs.

Fixed. Thank you.

[LudwigVan]

The riffs and chord progression on Welcome Home is highly reminiscent of Zep’s Kashmir.

For sure.

There's a compilation that has that? Oh well. I would've definitely sent that. Welcome Home and The Final Cut are my two favourite Coheed tracks.

I might check some stuff from this round though, as I only know the Greek Apollo, I'm Lonestar IV songs.

[TAC]

Greek Apollo, I'm Lonestar

[HOF]

I kind of got a Whitesnake - Still of the Night vibe from it, which I guess makes sense.

In this thread, LudwigVan relates every song to Led Zeppelin!


I thought I heard JPJ's keys in The Final Cut..

I think you're being generous with the word "hit".   

Then again, and I say this respectfully, I'm not a fan.  The Dark Sentencer was one song I truly like - like, not love - but while I see why someone WOULD like them, they're not really for me.

The sign of a true fogey!

[wolfking]

I got through half of the Crowning and fell asleep.  It sounded okay but woke up this morning with me the only one left to send.  I sent it anyway as I couldn't be assed looking anymore and I have to get to work.
