Moving Pictures track ranking

7. Witch Hunt (Track #6)
Score: 52 (Average Rank: 5.47/7)
Biggest Fan(s): ChichiriMuyo (#2)
Biggest Detractor(s): CasanovaZelos, Jesse_Custer, neonreaper, BlueCrystalTear, ZaziGuado, Seanchan, darkx (#7)

neonreaper: To be fair to this song, it's not bad and helps flesh out the album.

BlueCrystalTear: This is about cancel culture before there were Internets. I love the theme and it's still quite good, but I just like everything else better.

6. Vital Signs (Track #7)
Score: 64 (Average Rank: 5.05/7)
Biggest Fan(s): darkx (#1)
Biggest Detractor(s): TheArkOfTurus, Snake5555555555, WiggumFan267, Johnbobb, Reg, VeryInsane (#7)

neonreaper: Just listening to the album again it almost feels wrong to put this so low.

BlueCrystalTear: It gets redundant toward the end, but it's still quite the romp, and it fits well as an outro.

5. The Camera Eye (Track #5)
Score: 68 (Average Rank: 4.84/7)
Biggest Fan(s): TheArkOfTurus (#1)
Biggest Detractor(s): Comedy101, ChichiriMuyo, HBJDubs (#7)

neonreaper: 10 minutes of proggy goodness

BlueCrystalTear: It goes on for 11 minutes because of the alternating between epic riffs and calmer parts. And it manages to achieve a balance that makes for a great listen. It's about what a streetcorner security camera sees, yes?

4. Red Barchetta (Track #2)
Score: 102 (Average Rank: 3.79/7)
Biggest Fan(s): Snake5555555555, SpikeSetsFire, Comedy101, Reg, VeryInsane (#1)
Biggest Detractor(s): Jesse_Custer, neonreaper, Seanchan, Johnbobb (#6)

neonreaper: Good song, with some really nice parts, just feels like it's a tier below the other songs I like, but still a solid track 2. It's enjoyable and helps bring us from Tom Sawyer to YYZ.

BlueCrystalTear: It's a great song that feels unmemorable only because of what's around it tbqh. On many other albums, this would be a standout.

3. YYZ (Track #3)
Score: 116 (Average Rank: 3.26/7)
Biggest Fan(s): Jesse_Custer, WiggumFan267, Seanchan (#1)
Biggest Detractor(s): SpikeSetsFire, Raetsel_Lapin (#7)

neonreaper: Just so fun to listen to.

BlueCrystalTear: An instrumental that's this fun is quite rare. Some of them feel like throwaways. This was clearly a jam session where they just were like "Let's kick some ass today."

WiggumFan267: YYZ incorporating the morse code into its rhythm is fantastic, I love weird time signatures.

2. Tom Sawyer (Track #1)
Score: 124 (Average Rank: 2.95/7)
Biggest Fan(s): CasanovaZelos, neonreaper, ChichiriMuyo, Johnbobb, MetalmindStats (#1)
Biggest Detractor(s): SpikeSetsFire, Raetsel_Lapin, VeryInsane (#5)

neonreaper: It's a radio friendly song while still being prog, and has a really solid riff. Really good song, not overplayed yet everyone is familiar with it.

BlueCrystalTear: Good song about saying "Fuck you" to the status quo, with great vocals and musicianship. Really gets you want to listen to the rest of this.

1. Limelight (Track #4)
Score: 139 (Average Rank: 2.63/7)
Biggest Fan(s): BlueCrystalTear, ZaziGuado, HBJDubs, Raetsel_Lapin (#1)
Biggest Detractor(s): MetalmindStats (#7)

neonreaper: I'm most impressed by Lee's delivery here, really elevates the song.

BlueCrystalTear: Lee's vocals here are perfect, and the musical craftsmanship is DIVINE.
