I was gonna pick book two, but that didn't strike me as amazing as I thought it would the FIRST time I listened to it. So then I considered La Villa Strangiato, but to be honest I've always preferred YYZ as their best instrumental. I even glanced at Circumstances, the French lyrics have always held a place in this second year French student's heart, but it just couldn't compare to the amazing ness of the rest of the album. So I had to pick The Trees, my honest favorite song off of this album with lyrics every bit as metaphorically brilliant as my dad had told me time and time again.

By Hatchet, Ax, and Saw!

Book II for sure. An absolute masterpiece.

 

That being said, the whole album is a masterpiece. The solo in La Villa is my favorite solo of all time... by anyone!

 

I couldn't agree more. I always have to listen to Cygnus X-1 first, then Book II. It just doesn't feel right listening to one part alone.

It's between LVS and Tree Song with me. I think I will go slightly with Tree Song because I like how it goes through the song making you turn the song on it's head in the last line of the song. It hypes up that the Oaks are the bad guy throughout the song for the most part and at the end it's everyone that suffers.

Hemispheres.

 

Maybe the seventies should be relabeled the Epic Rush Masterpiece Decade.

 

Sure! What else was going on?

Circumstances. That song means so much to me both as a fully grown man with kids and as that boy in his room alone. Strangely I am becoming that boy again since my marriage break up! My life is coming full circle but that song always remains. Plus ca change Plus cest le meme chose !. Edited by Different Circles
