Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
Decision made: White Knuckles. As high as I am on Island of Fools right now, it's not fair to compare the two since WK still gets me amped after all these years, and the lyrics are spot-on.

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
I guess the awesomeness of Island hasn't hit me yet. I like it and think it's a strong track. But the love for it on this board is almost Blackbird/CoA level. And I just don't see it (yet).

... that said, I am glad TLH may finally get represented. Just not at Fortress' expense.

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
Tough choice but went with White Knuckles. One of my favorite AB songs live because of the Myles/crowd interaction. Island of Fools and Fortress were tied for second.
_^:Tangled in your trance and I'm certain:^_
Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
Same here. This one is tough with 4 great songs. Coeur d'Alene is a really underrated song, and Island of Fools might be my favorite on The Last Hero. And White Knuckles beats almost every song on every album...Lotha wrote:Ubik wrote: So painful that I screwed up and voted for it accidentally, the massive idiot that I am.
White Knuckles for me would probably win in any other competition when it comes to the heavier songs. But I can't vote against Fortress.
But it doesn't beat Fortress.
Another photobucket casualty...

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
This is toughest decision yet. Couer d'Alene is rhythmic as all eff!!! Fortress is all over the place in an awesome way. WK has that super sick bridge. And IoF has the best transition into any solo of any AB song...maybe.
I think Fortress is the best song of the bunch. But Island of Fools is probably the one that gets me amped the most. WK has my favorite vocal melody of the bunch. C d'A though has a special place with me. Whatever I pick is just going to change in the near future and then again after that. So for now I'll pick C d'a. No never mind. IoF. But Fortress...!!!!
Poor Save Me. I actually love that song. The long note Myles holds out always leaves me in awe. But it's in elite company here.

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
White Knuckles is the best song* they've ever written. Spectacular all around, I can only imagine the reason it's so far behind here is that it's nearly a decade old.
Fortress is amazing too, but none of the other options come close.
*not called Blackbird. Obviously.

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
Okay, thanks. I'm fine with it either way, I was just wondering, since it's technically a ODR song.Blackbird wrote:Track 15 on The Last Hero ^^Krissie wrote:Question: under which track number/album will Breathe compete?

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
Fucking tough choice. I LOVE Fortress but had to go with Coeur.
Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
Winner: Island Of Fools
What a close race!
What a close race!
Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
Well, good job my vote wasn't pivotal.
For all of the hope that it brings...

Re: Battle Of The Track Numbers: Track 12
Wow, that really was a close one! Not my vote, but I'm still a big IOF fan and I'm happy to see one from the new album won.
