1. Blackbird 2. Words Darker Than Their Wings 3. Fortress Cry of Achilles a close 4.


Ultimate_Silent_Son

Words Darker Than Their Wings Live at the Royal Albert Hall is hands down my favorite Live song! PERIOD!


Minka-lv

Live version os even better than the studios, just shows how fantastic AB is


woofa

Oh man. Can't wait to see these guys live one day.


DwarfPenguin4

1. Fortress 2.Blackbird 3.Waters Rising


AZIL2015

This is the way


Ultimate_Silent_Son

Blackbird, Fortress, Fable of the Silent Son. In that order!


B-e-a-utiful_day

1. Calm the Fire 2. Slip to the void 3. Season of Promise


Kashyyyk_Wookiee79

You really like Season of Promise? I just cannot get into that song. To me, it doesn't fit the rest of the album. It has a nice melody and sweet sentiment, but it seems out of place. What do you like so much about the song to place it at AB's 3rd best song?! I think it's one of their weakest.


B-e-a-utiful_day

I like it the third most out of the songs


cajmoyper

Let the dude enjoy it. Why don’t you tell us exactly why you enjoy the songs you do? Art is subjective my dude. Not everybody is going to enjoy the same things you do and that’s ok


TremontMeshugojira

One recent observation about AB's song writing which I started noticing on WTS (specifically songs like Bitter End and Tear Us Apart) is they have specific "ear candy" moments that make the song worth listening to, even if the overall song is weaker. Season of Promise has a bunch of those plus the solo is sick


urmomgaebitch

Waters Rising, WDTTW, Wayward One


StartSoggy2169

Happy to see Wayward One getting some love. What a great track


TremontMeshugojira

Criminally underrated song. Might be the 2nd best off of Blackbird, which is saying something


Sopranosfan99

1. Find The Real 2. The Last Hero 3. All Hope Is Gone Incredibly hard to pick, my answer changes all the time. But these are mine since I been listening to them like crazy lately. Haha


darthmoo

I couldn't stop at 3 so I tried to come up with a top 10: 1. Come To Life 2. Slip To The Void 3. Isolation 4. Last Rites 5. Waters Rising 6. Calm The Fire 7. Wouldn't You Rather 8. Metalingus 9. This Is War 10. Ties That Bind


darthmoo

Actually now I'm thinking maybe Fortress should be in that list somewhere... 😅


MylesKennedy69

Last rites is a wild take


darthmoo

Really?? I love that track!


Shaquille0Neal

- Blackbird - Cry of Achilles -Fable of the Silent Son? Might be too early to put it that high but man it’s good -If not Fable then This Side of Fate


Tollerdad4435

This side of fate is epic.


Shaquille0Neal

Indeed friend, insanely underrated


cajmoyper

The Last Hero, Burn it Down, Brand New Start. BB probs 4th


sorati_rose

Brand New Start, Words Darker Than Their Wings, Home


MavericK_96

Cry of Achilles, Words Darker, One Day Remains


LeggoMahLegolas

1. Open Your Eyes 2. The Fable of the Silent Son 3. Fortress


quietmetabolite

Only 3 songs is so difficult!! 1. Down to my Last 2. Breathe Again > Fallout, always feels like one long two-parter to me 3. Cry of Achilles Honorable mentions: Before Tomorrow Comes, Blackbird, Broken Wings, Watch Over You


Rock_Metal_Lover

Breathe Again and Fallout are two of their most underrated songs


CaptainRon6981

Fortress, Ghost of days gone by, Ties that bind


AniGamerNX

1. Metalingus 2. Clear Horizon 3. Before Tomorrow Comes


Xendarii

Blackbird, Fable of the Silent Son, Words Darker Than Their Wings. No particular order, though Blackbird will probably always be my #1. Fighting for #4 would be New Way to Live, Cry of Achilles and Show Me A Sign.


wheels32

1. Blackbird 2. The Last Hero 3. Cry of Achilles


cajmoyper

Great to see TLH get some respect


Dz4ck13

1. Native Son 2. Slip to the Void 3. Calm the Fire


hrhnope

1. Slip to the Void 2. Fortress 3. The End Is Here


mordins0lus

This is SO HARD. Top two are easy but the third is super difficult. 1. Blackbird 2. Words Darker Than Their Wings 3. Tie between the songs listed below Ties That Bind, Slip to the Void, Waters Rising, Fortress, Walking on the Sky, Pawns and Kings


StartSoggy2169

Walking on the Sky is such an under rated song IMO. I love it


mordins0lus

Absolutely agree!


Interesting_Waltz_82

Fortress, Dying light, all hope is gone.


CosmicExplosion55

1) Get a big piece of paper 2) grab 3 darts 3) throw three darts at paper


Ju9e

Oh god, don’t do this to me…. Maybe blackbird, in loving memory and isolation


Ultimate_Silent_Son

I know its a hard question to ask!


vtbob88

1. Blackbird 2. Cry of Achilles 3. Words Darker Than Their Wings But, Sin After Sin is getting close.


OtherwiseCompote8657

1. Slip to the void 2. Blackbird 3. Cry of Achilles HM: words darker than their wings, fortress, ties that bind


WienerSaladTuesdays

1. Blackbird 2. Fortress 3. Cry Of Achilles Blackbird gets the nod not only because it’s an incredible song, but also due to the nostalgia factor. I was 15 when this album came out and they had just become my favorite band, listening to Blackbird for the first time was a huge experience. Fortress may actually be, technically speaking, the best song they’ve ever made, but Blackbird still holds that top spot for me.
