What songs would be in your 'soft' Opeth playlist?

[Mantraschism]

Ok, not a groundbreaking thread, but I'm curious. I just made a 'soft' Opeth playlist, and I've included:

Coil
Windowpane
Harvest
Hours of Wealth
Benighted
Hope Leaves
Patterns in the Ivy II
Credence
Isolation Years

I didn't include any songs with ANY heavy parts, or else 'To Bid You Farewell' would definitely have been on there.

Your picks?

Songs you didn't mention that I consider soft:

the whole damnation album
Silhouette
For absent friends
Patterns in the ivy
Burden
Atonement

 

[Mantraschism]

Right, I didn't mean 'every soft Opeth song', just your favorites. Should've been more clear. And 'Burden' has heaviness, so it's disqualified.

 

[As if they knew]

Not sure about this, but at least for this moment my favorite mellow-Opeth song is Credence. So I'll put that one at top.

Credence
Still Day Beneath the Sun
Death Whispered a Lullaby
Hope Leaves
Isolation Years
For Absent Friends
Silhouette

And, Damnation in it's entirety of course. But I think Opeth has already thought of that.

 

[demonofthefall6469]

Coil
Windowpane
Benighted
Harvest
Hours of Wealth
Closure
Patterns in the Ivy II
Death Whispered a Lullaby
Ending Credits
To Bid You Farewell (that count?)

 

[Mantraschism]

As I said above, I didn't include it because it has a heavy part.

Edit: Wow, As if they knew, you've been a member of this forum since 2006 and only have two posts, and one of them is in this thread? I'm honored. =]

Benighted
Hope Leaves

Same, minus Isolation Years, plus For Absent Friends and Face Of Melinda (I don't consider the ending as a heavy part since there are no growls).

 

[Kristopher]

Burden
In My Time Of Need
Hope Leaves
Harvest
A Fair Judgement(I know,not very mellow in parts but I think it's beautiful in every single way)
Credence
Coil

Would'nt ever make a soft playlist though,I just fetch out Damnation if I feel in a mellow and sombre mood.

to bid you farewell
credence
benighted
harvest
still day beneath the sun
patterns in the ivy 2

An all-out mellow album would shit me, and I think the moments above are tolerable. The main reason why Opeth mellows are so beautiful is because they're surrounded by aggression. Not that I don't love mellow, but while listening to the selection creeping in the back of my mind would be heavy heavy heavy

 

[Headcrab]

Including only my absolute favorites, in chronological order:

Silhouette
Harvest
Still Day Beneath the Sun
Windowpane
Death Whispered a Lullaby
To Rid the Disease
Isolation Years
