Favourite song from "Paradise Lost"

[Detective Clarence Beauregard]

One of my favourites so far is Walls of Babylon which they actually played live, found a video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0

Not funny! Well, okay, a little funny. Seriousy though, they need to play that song live!

 

[RuntoHills]

Walls of Babylon and Seven.

I kinda hope the band changes their set based on this poll. If they add in The Walls Of Babylon as an always in their set like they do Sins n Shadows or Inferno, I'd fap every time I see them live. This song is to Paradise Lost as Egypt was to V.

FUCKING LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea I know right?

I know there's a difference in the two going from clean singing to a somewhat growl. But that's it.. He sings his off in Walls of Babylon just as much as PL

Screaming is Lamb of God.

Has to be Paradise Lost. I prefer real singing to screaming.

I agree with you again. Like the second time today. OMFG.

Where'd you get the lyrics though?

There's this little thing called a "booklet" that comes with albums and they have the lyrics printed INSIDE!

[/sarcasm]

BTW, your WoB sig lyrics should read "skies of red-winged thunder, breathing lightning fire"

Seven: the first solo section is my favorite part of the entire album.

I like in the chorus when Russ says "catch" it sounds like "cutch"...just silly

Not much love for Revelation it seems....The last 2 minutes of it are fantastic.

The middle instrumental section is amazing

 

[greenaxer]

It's among Walls of Babylon, Paradise Lost, and Domination. Freakin' awesome!

 

[progmetaldan]

Walls of Babylon is teh coolness...

Hard though, definately like STWOF, Eve Of Seduction, Revelation, ALL OF THEM...

 

[NeonShark]

I think Paradise Lost is my favorite so far. But then again the whole CD sounds fantastic. Well done guys!!
Thank you for another amazing CD

I really like Seven because of how Russell accentuates his voice in that song, and he sounds so emotional in some parts, but my favorite is Paradise Lost, such a beautiful song really.. just beautiful, I especially love the solo in it, its just perfect for that song

 

[Wander]

This is so hard. I'll give you the answer after a few listens, cause I really like them all.

 

[PoisonSeed]

I just noticed a similarity between the part starting at 3:46 in Paradise Lost and the beginning of A Winter's Dream Part I.

I'll probably get shit on for saying this, but I'm not a huge fan of Egypt. Communion seems more like a Paradise Lost comparison for V; either that or Evolution.

But yeah...if they played Walls of Babylon live...I would spread my seed all on everyone's faces.

Thank you SO much. Haha. I still don't understand the whole "lighting fire" bit; oh well, I'm sure it means something...metal.

it is tough choosing. I chose Revelation, but was leaning towards The Walls of Babylon, too.

The only song that doesn't spark any interest in me, is Paradise Lost. I don't know why, maybe with more listens.

Really? Wierd. It had the exact opposite effect on me. I fell in love with PL the first time I heard it and thought the Serpent's Kiss was weak. But now, after a few listens "through and through" , I like 'em all...just...Walls of Babylon is @$^%ing stupid good. PL is equally as good, just a completely different kind of song. Which is why I love this band so much.

Variation is key!

 

[iceandfire84]

Definitely Seven but very closely followed by Walls of Babylon. I can't really say that there is any Symphony X song I've ever disliked though

 

[proulxski]

its really hard to choose

 

[Detective Clarence Beauregard]

Message to Symphony X: Play Walls of Babylon, Paradise Lost, and Revelation on tour!

 

[DoomsdayZach]

Yeah! Except don't play revelation!

 

[proulxski]

message to symphony x: get off your bumms and actually read what people say on this forums lol! GL with that detective lookgood, i think symphony x memebers have been on this forum....1.5 x since its been around, which is...well a long ass time! And as for zach, i agree to disagree! I mean i like the song, but I don't think it would transcribe well live! Trade revelations for Occelus Ex Inerni, or howabout an extra hour of symphony x, anything but the witching hour!

 

[Beelzebub]

I chose Domination (my favorite song after the first few listens), though The Walls of Babylon is probably going to be my favorite the more often I play it.
