Round 1 : On the Sunday of Life AND Metanoia (eliminated)
Round 2 : Voyage 34 (eliminated)
Round 3 : Up the Downstair (eliminated)
Round 4 : Recordings (eliminated)
Round 5 : Signify (eliminated  )
Round 6 : Fear of a Blank Planet (eliminated
 )Round 7 : The SKy Moves Sideways AND Deadwing (eliminated)
Well, the last few rounds didn't go as I hoped they would, and I find it strange that Lightbulb Sun is still in there.
I vote for Lightbulb Sun to get the boot. Definitely the less proggy of their offerings, with some of my least favorite PT songs, "Four Chords that Made a Million", "Feel so Low" and "Where we would Be". Their most "Generic" sounding album, in my opinion. ------------- "One likes to believe in the freedom of Music" - Neil Peart, The Spirit of Radio |

Lightbulb Sun beats Stupid Dream for one reason: Pure Narcotic. My 15 year old is totally getting into that tune and learning it on guitar. But it also happens to be an excellent tune with me. How do you think he ever heard it? 
BTW...he is having trouble figuring out the song and guitar tabs don't quite seems to sound correct. Anyone have their own take on the chords? -------------

You're right. And it's fun that some of us can exchange on our tastes and still be respectful even when we don't agree.

Maybe "Piano Lessons"? I remember piano lessons The hours in freezing rooms Cruel ears and tiny hands Destroying timeless tunes She said there's too much out there Too much already said You'd better give up hoping You're better off in bed You don't need much to speak of No class, no wit, no soul Forget you own agenda Get ready to be sold I feel now like Christine Keeler Sleepwaking in the rain I didn't mean to lose direction I didn't want that kind of fame (Take your hands off my land) Credit me with some intelligence (if not just credit me) I come in value packs of ten (in five varieties) And even though I got it all now My only stupid dream I see you and me together And how it should have been I remember piano lessons Now everything seems clear You waiting under streetlights For dreams to disappear -------------

Either Stupid Dream or Lightbulb Sun - not bothered which now that Sky has been moved Sideways.
In Absentia for the win.  ------------- What? |

If he would ever remaster Lightbulb Sun, maybe I could listen to it and vote! In Abstentia should win the whole enchilada.
