The results are in...the BOTTOM to TOP of Opeth songs!

[biggsy]

[Don Corleone]

I'm surprised that NO ONE voted for Atonement.

it's a great song but it comes nowhere near my top 20. it's not that moving.

 

[BefriendedUnit]

Had I given myself time, maybe listened to all 8 or so hours of music a couple of times over, my list would be different.

The top ten turned out pretty well imo.

 

[Korlich]

GoP is Opeths best, all they do is in that tune. BUT why WC and Apostle wasnt even in top 20 puzzles me.

 

[Alcapoth]

I have a problem with these numbers... The albums don't have the same number of songs! So, just ranking them by the total number of votes is kind of innacurate.

I'm assuming that you included the bonus songs on their respective discs (ie Soldier of Fortune - GR, Circle of the Tyrants - MAYH, etc.) If not, then my numbers will be off. Regardless, yours need to be fixed to reflect the relative sizes of the albums.

Here are the recalculated results (and aren't they interesting?)

1. Still Life (7 songs) -- 234 pts
2. Morningrise (5 songs) -- 172 pts
3. Deliverance (6 songs) -- 171.8 pts
4. My Arms (9 songs) -- 168.6 pts
5. Blackwater Park (11 songs) -- 146.5 pts
6. Ghost Reveries (9 songs) -- 133.8 pts
7. Damnation (8 songs) -- 100.4 pts
8. Orchid (7 songs) -- 73.3 pts

Cheers!

Oh my god dude, thanks SO MUCH for that! Excellent point and I can't believe I forgot to divide the total points by the amount of songs on each particular album. I'll add this to the INITIAL first post. But hey, in any case, Still Life is still first and that's all I care about haha.

But yeah, this list somehow doesn't reflect as well as the OVERALL POINTS tallied for all the albums when compared to the top 10/20 list of songs. I mean, SL and MAYH for example destroyed the top 10.

And no Wwallinga, I did not include the bonus songs on the MAYH album as they aren't part of the album, so...also, you have to take into consideration that Prologue should be tied in with April Ethereal, so there are 8 songs on the album (no one would EVER vote for the intro track as a syand alone.)

But again, thanks for the feedback.

I voted for GoP (at #17 on my list) partly because I wanted to vote for at least one song from Ghost Reveries and liked this one the best among others there. I wonder if anyone voted for it for this sort of reason.

How GoP got twice the votes as Blackwater Park is really beyond me.

 

[:Wreath:]

GoP the best? Everyone knows that

 

[T-Rat]

hmm, well i can't say GoP is my #1, but it's an interesting list...

thanks!

 

[Led Opeth]

hmm, well i can't say GoP is my #1, but it's an interesting list...

thanks!

the return of T-Rattus?

 

[IamReptar]

Godheads Lament in the top 5! Yeah! I don't think I'd put DOTF that high, but it's still awesome.

 

[Godhead59]

I think The Moor and The Drapery Falls belong in higher ranks.

 

[Sandrothecoolman]

Lol, Nectar got raped.

 

[Alcapoth]

Lol, Nectar got raped.

Unfortunately. Even Wreath beat it out.

 

[Sandrothecoolman]

Unfortunately. Even Wreath beat it out.

I really just don't see what's so great about Nectar... I mean, yeah, it's a good song and all, but it was never anything special to me.

lofl

but this is a good thread though.

 

[IamReptar]

Unfortunately. Even Wreath beat it out.

It damn sure did. Wreath deserved to be top10.
