I guess this goes to show that Blackwater Park is among the top in my list, since most of the one's I've voted for are from BWP.
To bad To Bid You Farewell didn't make it, that one is damn good.

Longer ain't epicer. Atleast that's my beef with BRI. It's good, deserving to be near the top, but I've always thought if it were cut in half, 2 different songs, not a lot of people would be raving about either.

But that's just me though.

If Ghost of Perdition wins I'm convinced it's just because it's new and a lot more people have heard that than the old stuff.
If The Moor wins, or even beats The Drapery Falls, I'm gonna shit my pants and hope the whole thread smells.
If Demon of the Fall isn't in the last round or just a tithair away there's something seriously wrong.
If April Ethereal gets beat by any of the songs in the bracket... Well I won't be too upset, but it shouldn't happen.

Of course you know I'm saying this because my opinions are mine and that makes them better. :p But honestly, look at Demon of the Fall. It's like their signature song. Ghost of Perdition is the rookie that everyone gets all excited about because it's fresh.

Look at all the opening tracks still fighting it out. :OMG:

BRI is "the" Opeth epic.

Hardest thing ever! I had to relisten to a lot of tracks. Blackwater Park must win. And Deliverance beats R/HF because of better outro. If they've switched, I'd vote R/HF.

I'm last right?
