Vote and discuss!

[acoustic_ev]

Your Star, hands down

[Ring]

All That I'm Living For. Doesn't seem to be a popular opinion in the EvCommunity.

[RapturedLight]

Lithium for me. That song is soul-rattling in the best way possible.

[AeternusAmatorius]

Weight of the World, hands down. That song is just pure genius and pretty experimental.

I wish I could vote multiple times here. I really don't know which one I like the most. It depends on my mood. Today I might love Cloud Nine, tomorrow it will be Snow White Queen or Lithium... I'm only sure that I like Call Me When You're Sober the least. I voted for Lithium for the sake of casting a vote but I'll probably change my mind tomorrow.

[Worm Baby]

Mine is "Like You", for sure. It was from the first listen and always will be.

[ladychaos]

The Only One-love listening to it, love the challenge of singing it. Had a hard time deciding though because lithium really speaks to me, and lose control is amazing...the only track I'm not so fond of is Your Star.

[Rarkphoenix]

Very difficult and depends on ma mood. Like You is one of the few songs in existence that almost always brings me to tears. So heartfelt and beautiful, and it feels like Amy's breaking down herself during that bridge/final chorus, which is just heartbreaking and has such an impact on me. I can relate to that song a lot - so I'll go for dat one (x

I love the stripped down version, but when I'm listening to TOD and I hear that first chord strum and Amy singing, it really turns me off the song. It's beautiful, and the chorus is great, but there's something about the way the album version opens that makes me cringe a little, and that's probably why it's my most skipped song for TOD.

I chose Like You. Most songs have been my favourite at some point, and if I think about it too much I'll probably want to change my mind to Snow White Queen or Lithium or Good Enough, but Like You hasn't ever really faltered for me. I consider how often I've skipped the other tracks when I'm not in the mood for Ev, and this is probably the TOD track with the least skips. I'm not sure if it's the music or the lyrics or Amy's vocals or the subject matter, but there's a really haunting magic about Like You, and I absolutely adore it.

I love it. It's just that contrast between the really aggressive choruses and the really floaty verses. I'm usually drawn to the complete opposite when listening to or writing music so it always reminds me that there are songs out there that really work amazingly the other way around. Must admit I love the acoustic versions even more, though

[Osky]

I thought about it and none of the songs hit me like All That I'm Living For does. I mean.. Lithium is beautiful. I love The Only One. Your Star is epic. But ATILF just has everything. It's beautiful, it's epic, haunting, and atmospheric.

I will admit. I talk about the acoustic renditions more. The intro is just too sudden, and it's funny because hearing the chorus elsewhere sounds perfect. I guess it's about the buildup. I guess having that riff start it off is kinda sudden and puts you in the wrong place. I wish the album version had a nice gentle intro instead. But thank goodness for the acoustic versions because those are what made me fall in love with it. Ugh. UGH! So hauntingly perfect.

So yeah there's another vote for ATILF! ^.^

[shachath]

Lose Control, because it's so fucking heavy.

[Lycrymosa]

Sweet sacrifice cause it just so sassy and a great opening song, I remember listening to the CD for the first time and this song just captivated me instantly. Was a hard decision between this and weight of the world
