[Douglas A. Ott]

I tend to feel similar to you STM! We have very close taste I think. Although Break is different for me, that and I'm not being forced! I pick Defenseless for being my favorite track...mainly because I wrote the song for Scott Weiland of STP, but also because it is so different for us. I also love My Enemy...probably the best Benignus track ever written.

hahahahaha

I find "Break" to be the least immediate of any Enchant album. It has a delicate beauty.

Hey Doug,
If you pick Fade To Grey from Wounded...why didnt play it for the dvd ?
For me its the best of all Enchant cds...
Tirus from Mexico City.

"Wounded" is an excellent and vastly underappreciated album. I especially like "Look Away", which is an extremely subtle composition. Every note in Doug's guitar solos in that song tug at my heart.

Doug are these your favorites to LISTEN TO or to PLAY? My guess is there is a difference...and this could answer Tirus's question.

Man this sure AIN'T an easy question for some albums - it is like choosing between children.

Anyway, let's take a shot here:

Blueprint - OASIS (with AT DEATH'S DOOR a CLOSE second!)

Wounded - HOSTILE WORLD (that's an easy one)

Time Lost - INTERACT (hadn't listened to this disc in a while and broke it out again after the concert in March - and forgot how much I LOVE this song!!)

Break - IN THE DARK (another easy one)

Juggling - Ugh... this one is extra tough - although I have to go with BROKEN WAVE (and was SO incredibly stoked that this was played at the IMusicast show!!)


Blink - UNDER FIRE (IMO one of the BEST songs the band has done - I can play this tune over and over again and it never ever gets tired...)

Tug Of War - OMG this is tough..... it's between SINKING SAND, TUG OF WAR, and COMATOSE.... (although Beautiful has to get an honorable mention! Surprised by how much I love that tune....) DAMN if I had to chose one it'd be SINKING SAND but... I think I hurt myself.....

Dave said it best it is like choosing beetween Children picking just one from each disc.

For listening .....................

Blueprint : Nighttime Sky ( a masterpeice )

Wounded: Hostile World ( because it is a rare group effort writing togather ) and it simply rocks ass! Pure is amazing as well.

Time Lost : Under the Sun ( same thing we wrote this in the studio togather and Teds lyrics are awesome! )

Break : King ( Just a great song all around )

J9D10 : What to Say ( this is easy ) even if the whole disc is great!

Blink : this is really hard, Ultimate Gift is am amazing song and not an easy one to put into words but Doug did it perfectly! If you have met yours then you know what it is all about! and a close tie for 2nd are Under Fire and My Ever After are probably two of the best we have ever done!

Tug of War : See no Evil, just a great song that just flows!~ great lyrics!

as far as playing them

We have probably played this one more than any other song but it always rocks! At Deaths Door.

Hostile World, is by far my favorite from Wounded to play even though my wrist feels like it is on fire trying to play it.

Time Lost, Under The Sun is a lot of fun to play too!

Break, so far Gavel Hand for me but if we do King I think that would be it.

J9 or D10, What to Say, Broken Wave is cool too!

Blink, Under Fire is tough but very cool when we nail it! Monday is a blast too because Sean kicks ass on this one!

Tug, Sinking Sand rocks! and the bass lines are pretty cool, especially the outtro :Spin:

Oh yeah we talked about doing Fade but it was a numbers thing, too many good songs I hope we will do Look Away someday myself I agree it is great, especially the solo!~ we have played Fade quite a bit in the past but I think we have only done Look Away once or twice?

Good Post Hen Man
