The Looking Glass to save The Bigger Picture.
As a basic rule, if you hate it, you must solely blame Portnoy. If it's good, then you must downplay MP's contribution to the band as not being important anyway, or claim he's just lying. It's the DTF way.

Yes, this is the move now, fellow Bigger Picture fans. The Looking Glass had the second-most last round, so that's where we go now.

The Looking Glass because it should have already been gone.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

The Bigger Picture should have been gone already.

What?!?! The Looking Glass is at least top 2, if not even better than Illumination Theory. It's one of the most fun DT songs out there. Voting for the overlong slog that is The Bigger Picture.

I came to vote when things were already done, but glad to see that we were on the same page  :tup
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!

I’ll do whatever to save TBP which I think is the #2 song from this album.

But I’m starting to feel like STR needs to go soon. I wanted to love that one so much because it was JM’s first lyrical contribution in forever…but the song ended up being just ok. Good, but only good.

I had ZERO recollection that JM contributed partial lyrics to BAI…my bad.

That said, it's pretty obvious that TLG is going out, which leaves IT (which I assume will win), the three songs that all run together for me (TBP, BTV and STR) and The Enemy Inside.  I wonder how things will play out with those other four songs.
