Very unpopular opinion here, but it's easily my favorite of their ballads
I can understand this. Never liked All Ends Well much, before I compared it to the TLH ballads and realized how much better it is.
I wouldn't say it's either better or worse that You Will Be Remembered or Twilight. They all just fall into the category of "nice" AB songs.
Twilight is a ballad for you? WTF man. o_O

Easy one for me. The End Is Here is one of my all time favorites. I'd probably put Breathe Again second in this group.
Another photobucket casualty... :(

Not especially, but Lotha said TLH's "ballads". Aside from YWBR, Twilight was the next obvious choice (I guess?). And, no, I don't consider My Champion a ballad either. :lol

I mean, the next obvious ballad would be Cradle To The Grave, but I'm more than sure that's not the song Lotha meant. My Champion is definitely more ballad-y than Twilight, although you're absolutely right when you say that it's not a real ballad.

I hate to keep voting for ODR tracks in these things, but The End Is Here is the clear winner in this one.

This band needs some better song 9's and 11's.

Although I really like TEIH. The other four are just not very good.

This was tough choosing between TEIH and BA. The former has such a unique sound to it, coupled with that heavy riff, but BA is so uplifting. And yes, it's a little uninspired sounding, but something about that simple chorus just speaks to me.

The End Is Here is the easiest pick out of all of the track numbers. The next best is Twilight, and the rest I could completely live without.

Ah track 11, featuring the two songs that frequently battle it out as my least favourite Alter Bridge tracks ever.

The End is Here wins by a lot. I like All Ends Well plenty though.
For all of the hope that it brings...

Understood :) Sometimes ridiculous can be used negatively though so I wasn't sure :P

Sorry, I probably should have said "songs of a mood similar to All Ends Well" such as My Champion and YWBR. :D
