Leaving Your Body Map has my favorite motW song, but Bath by a considerable margin.

As I have the 2006 re-issues of Bath and Leaving..., I have to give it to Leaving for the dreadful desicion to add Uncovering the Gift to Bath, which stook out like a sore thumb and comes just before Geography. Without that, I probably would just give it to Bath. I voted for Leaving just to even up the poll.
*head explodes with trying to seperate the two*

I just reviewed Bath and think that i might prefer moments of it but in general would have to say Leaving Your Body Map. Its hard to separate the albums in my mind, especially since i usually listen to them back to back but if i had to split up these two conjoined twins id save LYBM. but how are you supposed to do that? hmmm difficult decision. both get 5 stars from me for different reasons. oh well, LYBM i guess. . . . but only if i have to.

I for one pick Leaving. Although not a perfect album it´s one of the most innovative and creative pieces of music I have ever heard! Bath is good too, but Leaving takes the cake for me.

Both of these albums are as perfect as music can get
I chose Bath, read my review why! |
make me!

I prefer the water concept in bath. It is a little more peaceful, which is a rarity in Toby's music. Great albums. I agree with the coherent comment as well.

Leaving Your Body Map - the best of the 3 MotW albums.

When it first came out, I was hooked on Leaving... and though of it as better than Bath.
Now listening to both, I feel Bath is stronger, more coherent (not necessarily something good in MotW standards...), more powerful etc.
