Sure it's poppish, but "Never the Rainbow" was the first MA song I ever heard and still my favorite. "Heroes Never Die" is pretty dang awesome too though...

All of them?
Hard to choose but if I had to, I'd go for Evergreen.
What i can't understand is why their 3 samples on the site include two utter masterpieces and a turkey (End of the World!)

Don't be!!!!! You have not missed a thing.
This groups is more busy trying to get their names associated with the big ones (seethose series of Inside Of) than actually lmaking good music. Their albums are boring at best and soporific at worst.
While they are not excruciatingly bad, they are nothing worth writing home about. And seeing them in concert changed nothing for me. They try to instill a "hey nonney nonney" at times which feels so uncalled for. Of course the least demanding progheads will melt for that, but I suspect that they are drooling and wetting themselves over the two (relatively cute) women in the group.

I like evergreen it is a very sweet song but apart from the fact that they remind me of a more electric Blackmore's night in a way...I must agree with Sean... its that feeling of things in their songs being "Uncalled for"... like they know the pieces of the puzzle but can't exactly get them to fit... and sometimes they just fit them plain wrong...

God, why are Belgians so lacking in taste! Ignore my fellow prog folk expert and team leader and listen for yourself. Let your own ears be the judge! (And Heather Findlay is emphatically NOT "relatively cute". Zip burstingly gorgeous, actually. Not that that influences my view of the band, though, as one has to be objective).

The gap is too wide. I'm also tempted to choose: "As long as it's sung by Heather Findlay, I like it"
