I don't hate the song. But I prefer the other number sixes. Sometimes the difference is smaller, sometimes pretty big.

Reading my reviews of all these songs in this post could give an idea of why I like these more. I must confess that my Innocent Exile review sounds more negative than the one about RTTH. Still, if I had to choose between the two, I appreciate certain parts (and playing) of the former more.

Not that it's my business but this is a matter of opinion. It's simple... people have different preferences and sometimes their favorites aren't quite the most popular songs.
Take my example... I like RTTH and by no meaning think it's worst than half the songs you compared it to and nonetheless I respect your pick (except perhaps when it comes to Wasting Love gggggrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!! :D)
And in all honesty I also can't understand why No More Lies, The Red And The Black, The Talisman, Face In The Sand, Drifter and Journeyman under the said circunstances could be featured in this list (Same works for Tailgunner, Fortunes Of War, The Duellists, The Prophecy or The Man Who Would Be King on DJ Mayes list)... and I really don't have to! It's your musical taste, it's your list and you're entitled to pick the songs you want, and people just have to accept it otherwise you wouldn't be honest with yourself.

Peace
 
While there are some mishaps in the rest of the song I find the chorus in the Gates chorus mindblowingly nice. I enjoy the pre-chorus a lot as well. Bruce is very good and the melodies are memorable.
Although I prefer RTTH, Gates is a pretty good song... and I totally concur: great pre-chorus (not only the vocals but also the bass) and chorus indeed
