I want to make a bunch of mix CD's, and I want your compilations to make up mine. If you want, explain why these songs are your favorite, but the compilation has to fit on an 80 minute CD.
 
Hmm..I always thought a best of should be something like two songs from each album so..Here goes.

Behind Space
Upon An Oaken Throne
Subterranean (EP, so only one song? Haha)
Goliaths Disarm Their Davids
The Jester Race
December Flower
Gyroscope
Worlds Within The Margin
Coerced Coexistence
Zombie Inc.
Pinball Map
Only For The Weak
Minus
Free Fall
Dead Alone
In Search For I
Dead End
Crawl Through Knives
Tilt (EP again, eh?)
Alias
Drenched In Fear

- Don't know if I can really explain why other than they are my favorite songs off the albums.

well unfortunately you probably aren't gonna get a solid mix down because everyone is gonna have slightly different mixes...unless you just wait til you get enough replies and pick the songs that crossed over the most haha. But here are my "top 18"...which can generally fit onto 80 mins

Lunar strain
Stand Ablaze
Moon shield
The Jester Race
Jotun
Episode 666
Ordinary Story
Colony
Only For The Weak
Satellites And Astronauts
Trigger
Cloud Connected
The Quiet Place
My Sweet Shadow
Leeches
Crawl Through Knives
The Mirror's Truth
Delight And Angers
......and if you have more space I would choose Goliaths Disarm Their Davids as a bonus

I don't know why i picked those...i guess i consider these songs the more "identifiable to in flames" songs...something you might find on a "best of". Of course there are plenty of other songs that I could go with.....even just looking at the other posts i could see all of them as best of albums....so I dunno...
 
My 2 best from each album.

In Flames
Clad In Shadows
Moonshield
Dead God In Me
Food For The Gods
Jester Script Transfigured
Resin
Zombie Inc
Only For The Weak
Brush The Dust Away
Dismiss The Cynic
Reroute To Remain
Dial 595 Escape
My Sweet Shadow
Pacing Deaths Trail
Crawl Through Knives
The Chosen Pessimist
Eraser (EP though but i think it counts)
