2112 easily.  One of the greatest albums of all time.
And I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I
don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime.
I never said I was frightened of dying.

Hmmm... gonna go with Awake.  it's more consistently good than 2112, which has an amazing side 1, but side 2 kinda falls off a bit.

Even though I prefer rush to some DT albums, there's no question in my mind here. Awake is a masterpiece that beats most albums in my collection, including 2112.


Currently listening to:

2112 is also the name of the epic - at least on my cd. On vinyl it's probably just labeled "Side 1" ...

Is there a "song" called 2112?

Anyway I also don't understand why these two albums? I'd go for 2112 though.

Why do you want to compare these two albums? I voted for Awake ... it's my favorite DT album and also the only DT album that I would really rate with 5 stars (Scenes gets 4 1/2 stars from me).

IMO it would be better to compare 2112 (the song) to Erotomania/Voices/The Silent Man, which really is an epic with three sections.

REMEMBER MATES, VOTE FOR THE ALBUM NOT THE BAND.

YOU MIGHT BE A DT FAN AND PREFERE 2112 THAN AWAKE AND VICE VERSA.
