Well, some are really hard to choose, like "most old-school" - I could have listed everything Orchid.
And for "best lyrics" there are alot of possibilities too, I just chose what came to mind first.

 

[Ermz]

Ah, some of your choices are so close to what came 2nd place to me... I think lately The Funeral Portrait has been right up there on the orgasmic meter and I agree, all of Orchid is old-school.. I still think In Mist She Was Standing is the most old-school though... it's just playing along to that, switching from riff to riff, I just get this feeling I don't get from playing any other song (yes even from playing Under The Weeping Moon *gasp*).
