Isolation wins by a narrow margin for me. I really like all the other songs but feel it was the standout on ABIII.

Come to Life got my vote, but it was a tossup between that and ODR.

Will give Writing on the Wall mine, partly out of pity. Do love it though.
For all of the hope that it brings...

Don't do that! Just be honest and pick your favorite.

One Day Remains. It's one of my favorite songs by the band. That energetic riff, those two mini solos, and the uplifting lyrics. Love that song.

Come To Life is a close second but ODR is special.

That was honest. Not much to choose between it, Isolation and Addicted to Pain for my ears. It gets extra points for mentioning the perils of climate change more than the presidential debates did.

One Day Remains is bottom, a song I've never really got along with.

Yep, my feelings exactly. I'm not gonna be voting for too many songs from the first album, but this one easily gets my vote. One of their most underrated songs by a mile.

ATP for me, though WOTW has been growing on me to the point that it comes a close second.

I wanted to post the same, but solos in Blackbird are equally 'main'.

yeah he had that blackbird solo but with Isolation was his first stand alone solo. Mark had some mini solos but Myles had the bulk of it.

Yeah it still counts, and you contradicted yourself, in the same sentence. He can't have a stand alone solo and Mark have mini ones too. They both solo on both songs.

Clearly you guys aren't understanding what I'm trying to say so let me break it down for you

- Isolation was a single and a hit. (Blackbird wasn't)
I said the songs proves that you can have multiple solos in a song and still have a #1 hit

- Yes, Myles has that solo on Blackbird but its followed by Mark.
With isolation Myles had the main solo. He hadn't had that yet with Alter Bridge.

What actual proper full on number one in the Billboard sales chart, or just on one of the lesser, make certain genres feel better charts?

Think something has gone wrong here lol

But, the Hot what now chart?!? Is that even a thing anyone cares about? Unless they were actually number one it's pretty meaningless. Fuck it if any old charts count, I have had 3 number 1 songs myself. TBH I only care about Album sales these days. Singles are meaningless.
