Simple Task: Name Best Song On Each Album
« on: January 17, 2015, 06:15:07 PM »
OK, let's see who has ears and brains here.
No indecisiveness, just name the one best song on each album (just studio albums, not the live stuff).

Vengeance - "Spirit Of The Falklands"
No Rest - "Frightened"
Ghost Of Cain - "Western Dream"
Thunder - "225"
Impurity - "Space"

Hopeless Causes - "Here Comes The War"
Strange Brotherhood - "Long Goodbye"
Eight - "You Weren't There"
Carnival - ?
High - "Wired"
Good Day - ?

Dog and Wolf - "Seven Times"
Wine and Blood - I have only been listening to live CD, haven't got to the studio tracks yet

Explanation: Carnival and Good Day I have answered with a ? because I disliked those two albums and never really got into them enough to find a great track. I will eventually put proper effort into those albums and see what I can find.

Your turn now.
One best song from each lp.

Sigh...

Space don't be starting with this ears and brains thing followed by ANY insults at all because it will end very swiftly.

Everyone else keep it all classy and don't be pressing that return button before you consider.

I am a patient man, but...

i'm picky with the albums so not familiar with all of them

Vengeance - vengeance
No Rest - no rest
Ghost Of Cain - 51st state
Thunder - green and the grey
Impurity - get me out

Hopeless Causes - "Here Comes The War"
Strange Brotherhood - wonderful way to go
Eight - "You Weren't There"

i guess for eight is an album that has the best tracks 1 to 4 ever on an album and in fact they are all favourites including snelsmore wood

I think its a reasonable idea but won't be posting due to the fact who started the post.
Don't you think that you owe Anna and Amanda a grovelling apology and probably the rest of us for that matter

Been done before, but a long time ago.

Personally, I'd sooner re-start Jibberish's thread

What a FANTASTIC idea for a thread, I love you for posting this thread  :-* It's like getting the chance to write the setlist for a gig.

Vengeance - Vengeance
No Rest – Better Than Them
Ghost Of Cain – The Hunt
Thunder & Consolation – Stupid Questions
Impurity – Vanity
The Love Of Hopeless Causes – Here Comes The War
B Sides and Abandoned Tracks – Curse
Strange Brotherhood – Whites Of Their Eyes
Eight – Flying Through The Smoke
Lost Songs 1 – See You In Hell
Lost Songs 2 – Still Here
Carnival – Bluebeat
High – All Consuming Fire
Today Is A Good Day – States Radio
Between Dog And Wolf – Horsemen
Between Wine And Blood – Angry Planet

nice list anna

the albums that challenge me most for best song are eight, thunder and consolation, and the love of hopeless causes

vengeance, no rest, 51st state, and 225 five on all of this the live rarities are standout special on a very special compilation. love the energy

I'm awfully embarrassed  :-[ . I realised that I told a big fat fib  :( 

In my post I said that I'd chosen a song from every album I owned but I'm really sorry, I forgot the Live Albums. What an idiot   ::)
 
So here's choices from the live albums I own too:

Radio Sessions – 83-84 – Frightened
Raw Melody Men – Lurhstaap
… And Nobody Else CD 1 – No Sense
… And Nobody Else CD 2 – No Pain
**** Texas Sing For Us – Bloodsports
Between Wine And Blood – Live CD – Stormclouds

the albums that challenge me most for best song are eight, thunder and consolation, and the love of hopeless causes

That's a very interesting thought there Heno. There's albums where I too am challenged to pick a Best song. I will ponder that and no doubt come back with some more words soon.

Night y'all, Sweet Dreams

Bad Old World
