Jazz-rock conspiracy? Zappa and Miles played at the same festivals in the
summer of '69 right BEFORE Hot Rats AND Bitches Brew were recorded.

Bridges
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

Bridges really??? That song is better than at least Space-Dye Vest, Misunderstood, and Lines!

Fatal Tragedy. Kind of strange how even though SFAM is my favourite DT album, I'm voting for one of its tracks in both polls this round. The SFAM survivor must have gone really strangely.

Lines in the Sand may be the best DT song. If it loses here, I'm going to lose all faith I have in other peoples' taste.

Well Ive been voting for Space-Dye Vest for a while, but it seems it's well liked around here, and I did listen to it recently, so I do like it a little more after listening. Lines In The Sand, while great, and a great composition, is ruined by the guest vocalist in the chorus. Raise The Knife is a better song, and has already been voted off.

Then, just keep on listening to Space Dye Vest... you may get to like it even more. I know it is very un-like any other DT song, I guess that's one of the reasons I love it so much... not that I don't like all the other very DT songs, I love them too. As for me, I vote for Lines in the Sand here, and I actually don't like the song so much, but indeed it's those horrible vocals that I can't stand and make me actually hate the song. If you actually like that song, and feel it ruined by the backing vocals, you may want to hear the version on the demos album of Falling into Infinity... I don't remember so well, but I believe the vocals were far less annoying on that version.

I never said I disliked Space-Dye Vest, but after Lines, it's my least favorite here.

The backing vocals aren't bad at all, and even if they were, they only appear for about 2 minutes of the 12 minute song.

Well, I don't even like the rest of the song so much... and for me, the vocals are bad and annoying enough for not wanting to hear them at all.

Honestly guys, Lines has the best f*cking solo from John Petrucci. It's maybe my favorite from the list. 

I would vote for SoC, which is the most boring song of the list, but I went with Bridges so I can save Lines...
