I just counted everything and got: Roads Untraveled - 2 Burn it Down - 11 Powerless - 13 Until it Breaks - 0 In My Remains - 5 Castle of Glass - 8 Lost in the Echo - 12 I'll Be Gone - 1 If someone wants to double check my count, just to be sure. At least for the Castle/Remains battle since it's the only close one haha.
I checked you and you're right on! Updated totals including the two most recent submissions: Roads Untraveled - 2 Burn It Down - 13 Powerless - 15 Until It Breaks - 0 In My Remains - 6 Castle Of Glass - 9 Lost In The Echo - 14 I'll Be Gone - 1 3 runaways and 1 close matchup! We're probably waiting for another 5 or so votes, I'd guess.
I dunno, I think Chester hit the notes pretty well live: but I guess it depends on which show you saw lol, I can't imagine him being on point non stop, his stuff has to be so hard to pull off. I think those songs you listed are better than Burn It Down, but as far as just lyrics go I think they are Mike's best: I played soldier, you played king and struck me down when I kissed that ring. You lost that right, to hold that crown. I built you up, but you let me down. So when you fall, I'll take my turn and fan the flames as your blazes burn. So great WUT
I think that is true. I was watching some live LP videos the other day (like every other day) and Mike sings along with Chester during the verses of Papercut so can probably do that one and some others alone. I bet if he did In The End the crowd would always be happy to do Chester's part. You run into them not being able to do so many amazing songs though. I imagine they would only be able to do: The Little Things that Give You Away, In Between, Papercut, In The End, When They Come for Me, Iridescent, The Catalyst, Castle of Glass, Until It Breaks, All for Nothing, Invisible.
Needed to give the album another listen before I voted but didn't have time over the weekend. Once we get to A Thousand Suns I know the albums much better so I won't need to relisten to evaluate the matchups. Burn It Down Powerless In My Remains Lost In The Echo
I don't they can continue without a new singer. There aren't enough mike songs to fill a set and no one in the band, or hell, near anywhere, has the range to fill chesters songs. I want them to continue on but I really don't see how they can.
Updated totals: Roads Untraveled - 3 Burn It Down - 14 Powerless - 17 Until It Breaks - 0 In My Remains - 8 Castle Of Glass - 9 Lost In The Echo - 16 I'll Be Gone - 1 The runaways are getting even more out of hand and the In My Remains vs. Castle Of Glass matchup has gotten even closer!
For all hot takes on this album that have taken place recently, COG needs to be outvoted and cannot win. We need 3 more people to make the right choice.
The bridge into the final chorus of In The Remains is just too good! COS is a very standard song (maybe why everyone seems to love it so much)
Love both, but COS is one of my favorites on that album. It doesn't really matter, either one will lose to Echo in the next round.
