losingit2k Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 This was a hard choice but I went with the longer songs, Basically cause they are all awesome.
Tombstone Mountain Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 An excellent idea for a thread my man...I went with the choice that only a "TOTEM" man could make--Loooonnnnnnggggggeeeeerrrrrrr!!!!!
LedRush Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 It's a tough choice, but I went with longer as three of my favorite tracks are there. Making it harder was 7COG, my least favorite track. But we've already heard Caravan and BU2B, and BU2B2 isn't really necessary for a live performance.
GUP1771 Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 Why isn't The Anarchist part of the long songs? It's only 7 seconds shorter than The Garden, clocking in at 6:52. It's also much longer than Seven Cities. If The Anarchist was included in the longer songs, I would have went with that.
third hand grace Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 didnt vote I like (wouldn't say love) all the songs (minus wish you well). I'd like most of them to be shorter actually.
Cyclonus X-1 Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 My four favorite CA songs are all in the "Shorter" category, so...
Snaked Posted August 6, 2012 Posted August 6, 2012 How is The Anarchist (6:52) on the short list? BOGUS POLL MAN!
NYM86 Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 I have some quibbles with your classification of certain songs but I went with Shorter.
goose Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 Went with longer in a forced vote, but my CA song preferences really don't break down that way.

Alexmai Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 QUOTE (LyndseyG @ Aug 7 2012, 01:02 AM) Love them all. Best album since MP. And you can't choice best songs on MP
Snyder80 Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 Tough call because The Wreckers and Headlong Flight are probably my two favorite songs from the album. That being said, I went with shorter because more material I dig is in there.
micgtr71 Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 I like all of the songs but my favorite are the ones that start with J
micgtr71 Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 Seriously, I can't choose because I like songs from each list better than others that are on each list. One thing I will say is that I thought there were going to be some really long ones this time around (from all of the talk) and was surprised to find all of them under 8 minutes.

BOGUS POLL MAN! My thoughts exactly..... Ok. I agree the poll is flawed. The Anarchist should be on the longer list or maybe Seven Cities of Gold should on the shorter side. I never considered The Anarchist to be long, since it flies by with such magnificent majesty. Oh Well, it would have been an easy poll to vote for if that were the case. I truly like the whole album so it really doesn't make a difference to me. I was just having some fun and keeping the motion going until September.
Merely Space Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 Can't choose (Yes, yes, still have made a choice, yada yada). Two favorite songs, one on each side.

And you can't choice best songs on MP Oh I can choose the best songs on MP: Red Barchetta Limelight The Camera Eye Tom Sawyer YYZ Vital Signs Witch Hunt Actually, the hardest thing to do was placing Red Barchetta before Limelight.

I completely agree, I thought there was goign to be at least one 9+ minute song on the album. I actually thought it was going to be the title track. Oh Well! Maybe next album!

Yeah I was looking for a 9 minute effort as well. For an album that's 66 minutes long it sure seems to be over very quickly.

They took time from the slower songs (Halo Effect, BU2B2) and handed them to the faster tracks (Headlong Flight, the Anarchist).
