Winner of Track 05: Metalingus (One Day Remains)

I'll include a very reasonable hint that Jim posted three years ago: PLEASE DO NOT VOTE "THE LAST HERO" SONGS JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE FRESH IN YOUR MEMORY. PLEASE CONSIDER ALL SONGS AND HOW MUCH YOU LOVED THEM WHEN YOU FIRST HEARD THEM. TAKE YOUR TIME VOTING.

Easily Broken Wings. Cradle and BTC get a tied second place.

Peace is Broken by a narrow margin. Cradle is 2nd place.

One of the easiest track numbers to vote for...I definitely had to pick Broken Wings for this track, with Cradle to the Grave not too far behind it. Before Tomorrow Comes and Make It Right are both easily two of my least favorite songs that AB has ever done, and Peace is Broken is a good song but not really a stand out track for me.

I'm pretty torn with this one. Other than Make it Right I love all of them... but I'll go with Broken Wings. I was a relative latecomer to AB, but I think it was the first song I heard that made me fall in love with the band.

Cradle To The Grave.

I'd like to publicly thank Blackbird for kicking this tradition off for me in my absence, great job! I'll be working on it from Track 7, looking forward to how it ends up

Tough call between Broken Wings and Cradle to the Grave...went with Broken Wings though. That guitar intro piece is amazing.

I think the guitar intro/outro is what does it for me as well.

Cradle to the Grave for me, that song has more emotion in it than any other on TLH. Broken Wings a very close second place though.

CTTG without the shadow of a doubt for me. The clear successor to Blackbird and Words. Make It Right is second, Broken Wings probably third. BTC last.

Also, thank you, Jim :)

I'm legitimately surprised to see CttG ahead in the votes here. Glad to see it getting the recognition it deserves though.

Pretty much this.

Peace is Broken, that riff and bridge though

Broken Wings is a very close second

Broken wings is one of my all time favs and will always have deep meaning to me, but I went with Cradle. On my very first listen through of TLH, it was the first track that immediately gave me those alter bridge goosebumps. Lyrically one of their standouts and I also like the diversity of the song's arrangement. Kinda feels like the love child of brand new start and ghosts.

I love that you somehow made the 'Easily' so tiny

Same here. I thought the harmony between Mark and Myles. Thats also one of my favorite Mark riffs. I wish they would at least attempt to play this live

Deliberated over this one for some time, tough call between Broken Wings, BTC and CTTG. fter much thought I have gone with CTTG. There is something quite special about that song.

Oh wow I'm actually thinking of voting TLH for this one. Or Broken Wings.

Cradle to the Grave! I actually find it a more powerful vocal than Blackbird.

Hard to vote against Cradle to the Grave, but Broken Wings has always been a favorite of mine.
