I know Steve will probably slap me in the face for this, but.... what are your LEAST favorite PQ songs? My least favorite is probably Civilized?, although it does have an amazing solo, it's just too depressing for me.
Your least favorite PQ songs?

Oh Steve is far more accommodating than that but in answer to the question...erm I don't think I have one. Sounds faboi-ish but I've always said PQ were one of the few bands who just haven't managed to make a song I don't like. If pushed, maybe the demo tracks with ZP singing

Interesting subject...and of course I'm not going to slap anyone for having an opinion!
As for Civilised being depressing......well I guess it should be as it's based on real life events, which are often depressing

I'm glad you're open to the subject Steve! Even with my most favorite bands, I do have some songs that just don't click with me, and I always find it interesting to discuss with other fans what those songs are for them... interesting how one person's least favorite track could be another's favorite!
Not to say that the songs are bad, of course - far from it!

Exactly, Steve. I'm just a little bit leary of darker/sadder lyrics in the power metal genre, but that's just me. As a matter of fact, I will put it this way: Master Of Illusion was the first PQ album I bought, prior to that I had only heard Glory Tonight, Wings Of Forever, Far Away, and Temple Of Fire.
Me upon hearing first 3 tracks: "Is this a different Power Quest than the one I heard on YouTube?"
Upon hearing Kings Of Eternity: "That's more like it!!"

Yeah, it was difficult for me to pick a PQ song I least like but that one mentioned I agree with.

Power Quest are one of very few bands of which I can honestly say I don't think any of their songs are bad. That being said, there is one song that is definitely my least favourite by PQ and that is 'Master of Illusion'.

As do I! Any particular reason why these songs don't click with you all? For me, Hearts and Voices just lacks something. Mostly, though, I just don't care for the chorus, and how often it's repeated at the end.
'Master of Illusion' just excites me the least of all PQ songs. I can't explain exactly why, but I particularly don't like the sound of the chorus.
As for some of the other songs mentioned by others, I do like 'Soulfire' and 'Civilised?' is a song I didn't particularly take to at first but grew on me over time. It is now one of my favourites from MoI.

I think this is my girlfriend's least favorite too, and I make fun of her for it!
Yeah, The Message just never felt like it fit with the Power Quest vibe to me so that would be my least favorite.
