It is.

My selection would be "Hollow Man" that opens Doppelganger.Though certainly not the most melodic, it definitely sets the stage for DG and lets the listener know this is going to be a very different listening experience.

My second selection would be "A Sigh For you" which opens Fearful Symmetry. The whole theme of that recording is longing for God, and I think that song sets it up nicely.

  you hit it

DAMBers
you guys should ALL be carpenters
you hit the nail on the head so well
Broken LAdders came to mind first...
though BA the WE fits too-
I have a personal affinity toward Lets Spin
(the first swirling eddie sound you ever heard after all-was a swirling eddy)
right?????????

Jesus is Jehovah to me.

I'm from Dallas and I don't mind that country sound.




Actually "A sigh for you" was the first DA song I ever heard so I'll have to go with that one - it sold me on them totally.

DG should win this one as it has the "bookends" on either side of the album! Big Grin

"Big Warm..." was running through my head the minute I read the question. What about "The Pool"?? That was an opener, wasn't it?

^^ the pool did not open; i believe that it followed a sigh.



Posted by John Foxe on 11-26-2002 at17:52:

  What about the Eds?

Does the Let's Spin track count?

That's one of my favs.
