Oh track 9 is a pretty weak track number eh

[Macca]

Went WYW

[Lotha]

Ugh, this one is hard. The one that draws me the most is Watch Your Words, but I'm also really fond of Show Me A Sign and One By One. And Farther Than The Sun.

Ugh, I don't know.
Definitely not One By One.
It's either Farther Than The Sun or Watch Your Words.
I'll go with Watch Your Words. I really listened to that one a lot.

Edit: shiiiiiiit I'm an idiot I forgot I need to shut up and I posted if someone could delete this, I'd appreciate that very much.

[Timotheus]

Watch Your Words and One By One are two of my least favourite AB songs, so it's between Show Me A Sign and Farther Than The Sun for me.. It's kinda 50/50, so I think I'm going to go with Show Me A Sign to support AB III a little.

I like all 8 tracks from the previous 2 battles better than any of these tracks tbh.

Edit: lolol Lotha!

[AB23]

One by One- I've said what I've needed to say. One of their best songs live, and has a huge impact for me. Great lyrics and an ode to our military. This song is the best military tribute I've ever heard

Watch Your Words- The pre chorus "To truly see well.." part is amazing to me. Most underrated song (besides burn it down) on the entire album. They also played this song spot on live
FttS- I like this song. Sorta reminds me of Ties. Catchiest chorus on the album.
SmaS- never got into its dark tone and slow, almost dragging pace

[Ubik]

And the fire inside is gone!

[Dolo]

SMAS, because of its uniqueness.

[austinjhnsn]

Show Me A Sign! That song is so dark. The bridge does it for me.

[Arctic]

Show Me A Sign. One of my favorite tracks from AB III. Dark, chugging, and that bridge is fantastic. It's a different type of song for them and it works. One By One is a close second, kind of an underrated tune there.

[SHEAKENBAKEN]

Show Me A Sign. To the dark I now am born!

[Ryan]

Voted for Farther Than The Sun. It's grown on me and it's even better live.

Agree with all of this except the part about WYW. It came down to those WYW and SMAS, but I should vote for an AB3 song someplace.

[BennyWhatever]

I didn't realize people actually liked Show Me a Sign. Definitely in my top 5 least favorite AB songs.

I went with Watch Your Words. It has some awesome lyrics, and a cool melody & arrangement.

[Felipesh]

Between One By One and Farther Than The Sun, I choose the second

[Ariana]

Farther Than The Sun by a mile. It's just brilliant! That chorus never fails to get me dancing, that middle section never fails to make me headbang. And that guitar during the second verse... Wooooo!

[HappyHogJens]

Definitely SMaS.. Such an awesome dark atmosphere and Tremonti's vocals are killing it in the chorus and the bridge! Maybe it's one of my favorite song off of AB III, if not my favorite

[GazEd]

WyW

the rifffffff

[Dan Dando]

Show Me A Sign It's a shame that the guys didn't really fancy it live for whatever reason.

[antiwal]

Damn, I love all these tracks and I disagree that they are a "weak bunch". Gotta go with One By One though, awesome riff and bridge and one of the catchiest choruses they've done (in my opinion). Love it!
