And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.
Spiral out. Keep going.

As for the track - Change of Seasons
As for an album, tie between Awake and Six Degrees, with Falling into Infinity as third. SFAM I don't like either

Awake. Space Dye Vest is easily the memento of what was the best of Dream Theater.

How can anyone vote for an album other than Awake...
I haven't been listening to a lot of DT lately due to the fact that they annoy me... but Awake is still one of my favorite METAL albums.

Not everyone likes early DT the best.

Tough call between Six Degrees and Systematic Chaos which are the two very best imo. Problem with Six Degrees is that I mainly like the epic. The other disc is good/very good but not excellent.
Systematic Chaos counts 5 terrific songs (In the presence 1&2, Ministry, Repentance and Dark Eternal Night) and the rest is good. So I think SC is overall slightly better and I voted for that one.
Systematic Chaos is disgracefully underrated on our site by the way (3,49) and I wonder why ...

I voted for it too. Amazing guitar solos by Petrucci!

Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence: the second disc is a 42 minute voyage. And you got highlights on the first disc! (and what a production!)

Tough call.
Can you really give the vote to A Change Of Seasons, effectively a one track album? I don't think so, which is a shame as that is one of the best tracks they've ever produced.
I'm a big fan of recent DT so for me it's close between 6DOIT, Octavarium and Systematic Chaos. As the latter two are trailing severely I'll go with one of them. My vote is Octavarium this time. Could have been any of those three though.

Lyrically and sonically, SDV has got to be one of the most emotional DT songs. It is one of my favorites. It reveals a window into the dark soul of Kevin Moore. The band's talents in subtlety, a must for any great musician, really come out as well.

Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence is a superb album, it gets my vote. The Glass Prison is my favourite DT song ever
