as some of you may remember, in the weeks before ghost reveries came out, i made a countdown on this forum of all of opeth's songs, from 50 to 1, with an explanation of my reasoning for each one.
BUT YOU HAVE A JOIN DATE OF BLAHLBALHLHALHKHLAFKF
are you still talking? anyway, the reason my join date is so recent is that my old account was banned, and i'm afraid the original list was erased along with all the other beautiful things i poured my soul into on this forum. such is life. i seem to remember that demon of the fall was #1. however, things have changed, opeth has recorded 2 more albums since then, and plus i have grown and matured as a human being, making my opinions now highly superior to my opinions 4 years ago.
so thus commences the brand new countdown, which i'm sure will have you all on the edge of your proverbial (and possibly literal) seats. ftr i'm not counting any of the bonus tracks or cover songs, just the 65 tracks from the 9 studio albums. i will dedicate 1 post to each song, with an explanation of my reasoning for each. did i say that already? well, i'm afraid i did. oh well. i will update the countdown approximately whenever i feel like it.
also, the only reason i am starting this now is because i am very bored, it is 4 in the morning, and i have to "wake up" at 5 to go meet my girlfriend at the train station. before you start accusing me of such things as being "whipped," i haven't seen her in over a month and many reasonable people would do the same in my situation.
COMMENCE COUNTDOWN
#65 - Prologue
well it wouldn't really be reasonable to pick anything else here. it does its job starting off the album, but 'twouldn't be right to put it above any of their more substantial songs so here it is. commence whining that prologue is your favorite opeth track and you will now discount my opinions for the rest of this thread.
