But credit where credit it is due, this was a really tough choice and all 5 songs were close. Bleed It Dry is brutiful, love the bluesy middle section, and yet another insanely good solo. Ghosts is so catchy and always gets me smiling and bopping. Then finally the latest edition The Other Side, so dark and groovy. Love em all and, as other have said, would be happy with any the 5 winning.

I really struggled between Brand New Start and Ghost Of Days Gone By. The guitar solo of Brand New Start made it for me. Even though I really love the whole mood of Ghost.
Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 03
I just cannot get into BNS that much and I am again so "surprised" that it will win this poll again, as it did in 2013. BNS is by far the worst of these 5 tracks for me (even though it's not bad or sth.), I like Bleed it Dry and The Other Side so much more - but that is the great thing about taste, it's not debatable and I love it
The Other Side for me, Bleed it dry is a very close second.

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 03
All great songs and some of my all time favs. BNS still hands down for me though. The song was my 2nd fave (to blackbird) up until CoA was released. But that chorus and solo still always gives me the feels.

Ghost for me. Just barely beating out BNS.

Bleed it Dry by a fair distance.
For all of the hope that it brings...

Ahaha, kinda glad it wasn't just me lol. Me and my partner at the time used to scream at every beep, yet we could not stop listening to it. Was so happy when the real version dropped and I could hear Myles awesome vocal into the soloRyan wrote:I remember those fade out, dings lol.

All of these songs are fantastic. There is no loser here.
However, I must go with the first song I've ever heard from AB and the one that brought me to them in the first place. OYE it is.

BNS for sure. The first AB song I saw them perform live, and I remember the feeling that swept over me when we heard that live bootleg recording from Foxwoods or wherever back in '07.

As hard as this one has been, track 4 is gonna be a cakewalk for me
Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 03
Yeah, for me too. Don't know if we'll be on the same cakewalk though. xDantiwal wrote:As hard as this one has been, track 4 is gonna be a cakewalk for me

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 03
It's really a two horse race in the next round. Most of the votes will go to either Burn it Down or Lover

Thanks for the sig Don Harry!
Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 03

Hmmm, #4 is gonna be another tough call for me between Lover and Burn It Down. Though I think I already know which one will edge it (Hint; it rhymes with burning clown)

Buried Alive is one of my favorite Alter Bridge songs ever. It's a shame it's so underrated.

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 03
I've always really liked Buried Alive as a whole, but what's always brought it down a notch for me is Mark's lead line that he plays with wah during the intro and various points during the song. I don't know why exactly, but I just find that part annoying for some reason.Arctic wrote:Buried Alive is one of my favorite Alter Bridge songs ever. It's a shame it's so underrated.
Awesome, awesome bridge though.
