Well I'd imagine that one would be a steal for In The Cage, although I'd pick Dusk. Though if Genesis Live were also included, The Knife would be some fierce competition.

I always see albums like the Lamb as a unit, not a bunch of songs, so I cannot really choose my favorite one.

 I link "11th" rather to Wind and Wuthering, though it has only 9 tracks, than to The Lamb somehow. Nevertheless these are my 11 favourites: 1. Riding the Scree 2. In the Cage 3. Colony of Slippermen 4. Fly on a Windshield 5. Back in N.Y.C. 6. Lillywhite Lilith 7. The Chamber of 32 Doors 8. The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway 9. The Carpet Crawlers 10. The Supernatural Anaesthetist 11. In the Rapids

From Counting Out Time:
"Touch and go with 1-6. Bit of trouble in zone No. 7. Gotta remember all of my tricks. There's heaven ahead in No. 11!"
I chose The Waiting Room, and my ranking went something like this:
Hairless Heart The Lamia In the Cage Carpet Crawlers Fly on a Windshield Supernatural Anaesthetist The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway Broadway Melody Cuckoo Cocoon Light Dies Down on Broadway The Waiting Room
