You know, I used to hate Make It Right. I would skip over it every time B Rifferiffic would end. But I cranked it one morning on the way to work and realized... there are alot of cool music parts in there. Still not my favorite track, but I don't skip it as often.

Myles' Vocals - Ties That Bind or Blackbird.
Mark's Vocals - Burn it Down harmonies; and on the bridge, he's in unison except on the words "day" and "way". I lerv it.
Mark's Guitar - Blackbird. That clean riff... and really everything he does in that song.
Myles' Guitar - Big fan of what he does on Coming Home, all throughout.
Flip's Drumming - Metalingus fo sho.
Brian's Bass Line - Don't have an opinion honestly, though I enjoy the Damage Done riff?
Best Guitar Solo - Brand New Start
Best Harmonies - Slip to the Void
Best Riff - One Day Remains is my dark horse.
Best Chorus Melody - Words Darker is so catchy to me.

Make It Right might be my least favourite Alter Bridge song ever. I just don't feel it..

Timo, I feel the same way about Breathe Again. I don't hate it, but I don't feel it either.

I can't really describe it, but it's the music right after Myles sings 'I will find the answers that were always here," in The End Is Here.

There's this really nice music bit right after that line and before he starts singing again, and it happens throughout the song.

To go off what you said here, I think one of my favorite musical bits is that bridge after the second chorus, damn that riff is good. But yeah, I think Jim knows what you're talking about.

Iv'e noticed I'm the only person who chose Open your Eyes as Best Guitar Solo.
Of course this is personal opinion but I absolutely think its the best Solo (Right next to BB's, and Come to Life)

Yep that's the one. The solo type riff later on is also great.

There would be so many... has anybody ever noticed the startling similarity between part of the melody line of "Watch Over You" to "The Rain Song" by Led Zeppelin (on Houses of the Holy)?

Both songs are brilliant, but that was just something I picked up the other day. I heard the melody line in The Rain Song and I was like "Leaves are on the ground... fall has come" HOLY CRAP!!! :o
