Pick your favorite epic opening song from this talented band. The Infanta will probably get my vote!

And "The Infanta" it is for me - I expect Micky to chime in and choose the same. Talk about opening an album with a bang - which is quite surprising, since most of the album is instead rather low-key.

Tough choice. The prelude to The Hazards of Love sets the mood of the rest of the album perfectly, and though I love the opener of the debut a lot, "The Crane Wife Part 3" rakes at my heart...

same here Robert.....Leslie Anne Levine would have been my second choice. Perfect start to a near perfect album.

Just started listening to Crane Wife and Pt. 3 was really good, so I'm going to go with it.

Hmm, I do love Leslie Anne Levine and The Infanta, but The Crane Wife 3 is my favorite.

I have to vote for Prelude, since it doesn't have any votes yet. Sets up the first few minutes to one of the most magical 56 minutes or so ever. 
The other choices are all great as well.
