Dare to Know.  Not a horrible song, but after the relatively decent album opener, I always feel let down when this one starts, so it earns my scorn.

Dare to Know is one of the highlights imo. Sister Sleeping Soul does very little for me

Yeah, Sister Sleeping Soul is pretty bad.  But basically, after the first song, everything kinda blurs together into a mass of mediocrity.  The Quest is definitely a step up from Heaven & Earth, but that's a pretty low bar to clear.

I agree with Sister Sleeping Soul this time around, but Dare to know will be gone soon as well.

Also, Orbert, really good to have you here.  :tup

Thanks.  These later albums are tough.  I've been voting here and there, but not really contributing to the discussion because, unfortunately, I don't have a lot of positive to say.

No worries. We also do not discuss the songs that much, we usually just name the ones we do not like.  ;D

Yeah, which is why I'm not really a survivor guy.  I'd rather discuss music than rank it.  For every song that someone thinks is a dud, there are people who love it, and sometimes for the same reasons that others hate it.

But I know this is DTF and one thing we do until all horses have been beaten to bloody pulp is rank things, so here we are.
