#2 for first 4, #1 for second 4.

Wow. The best of the best... against each other. I simply love all of these songs. All of them. I could probably pick my top 5 out of these if ony Out of the Silent Planet was in the game.

BUT - my choices were surprisingly clear! Magic...

Dance of Death
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Seventh Son of the Seventh Son
Wasted Years
Aces High
Paschendale
Caught Somewhere in Time
Infinite Dreams

There were definitely some tough match-ups this time around. I always hate voting against Powerslave, and the same for Caught Somewhere In Time. Aces High vs Sign Of The Cross was a nasty match-up too. Every song in this round, I love, it's just a scale of how much I love them! lol

 

[LooseCannon]

CSIT is not better than Phantom of the Opera. It's just not true.

 

[mckindog]

Whoops. Meant to vote for Rime, clicked on the divider instead.

 

[Kill Devil Hill]

Every song I voted for is losing except Infinite Dreams.

Same. Whoops, I voted for Children of the Damned instead of Wasted Years. Happy if either one advances, though.

So glad to see CSIT losing to Phantom now. Super overrated song. It doing so well is an anomaly.

CSIT:
Ranked 33/125 in 2004
Ranked 56/125 in 2005
Ranked 58/125 in 2006
Ranked 56/135 in 2008
Ranked 46/145 in 2011

One year later it goes up to top 10, it seems? Highly unlikely. Still, these rankings won't affect the overall average ranking much.
