Thanks Timo!
Re: Island Of Fools is officially the best song on The Last Hero
I've listened to the album about 10 times now and this is the only song I can't remember anything about. It's fine when I'm listening to it, but when it's over... nothing.
Re: Island Of Fools is officially the best song on The Last Hero
To the OP: right now, I totally agree.
I think this is the best song on the record. It has everything I want from an AB song.

I love the vocal harmony on the Chorus. Mark sounds really good filling that low end under Myles.

Re: Island Of Fools is officially the best song on The Last Hero
This might just be me, but:
Love the way they did that final chorus... I just wish that was more of a "bridge" attachment, and there was still a final chorus after that. In other words, I'm not "done" with the song at that point.
I did an audio edit that brings the song to about 5:27 instead with the edit, and I think it just brings another level of "epicness" or "completeness" to it. Just maybe it would be a bit too much for the average listener in terms of fatigue, but I think it's perfect for me.
If it helps, it's placed after the solo but before the outro. There is only one moment when he sings "Oooowwwnnn" at the end and it might not necessarily match with the guitar on the outro, but it also might at the same time. Haven't yet heard it anywhere but on my PC. It's just harder when you know something is changed instead of not knowing, if you know what I mean.
I'd find a way to upload it for you all if I could, but I don't quite know how to without violating any copyright-like stuff.

Re: Island Of Fools is officially the best song on The Last Hero
Okay, try this (only when I try it, it says "File ID is not correct"... not sure why):
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?fi ... 9286418774
Ultimately I ended up extending the outro to a couple of more bars on top of what I had already added, so that the electric guitar doesn't jump in the way of Myles' singing.

Re: Island Of Fools is officially the best song on The Last Hero
^ No problem. As I said, it might be my opinion only. I just find their final chorus to be more of a lead-in to another real final chorus in a way.
And to be fair, if they released "my" version and I edited it down to "their" version, you would still prefer theirs. It's the one they released and it's the one you're used to. That's just how things are. I probably prefer theirs as well, but mostly because my edit is still a little rough around the edges.
I'm just really happy that The Last Hero has a last-last chorus. It would feel incomplete without it.

Re: Island Of Fools is officially the best song on The Last Hero
Poll disagrees with OP. The Last Hero is the best song, this is 2nd. And yes, my rankings have changed since last week lol, and will probably continue to do so for a few months.
Best 3 on the album are
1. The Last Hero.
2. Island of Fools.
3. This Side of Fate.

Listened to it again on a drive. I like it, and think it's strong. But it's far from the best for me.
