How do you figure that? One of their BEST songs!

Of course, you're entitled to you opinion

But why the 'In The White' hate?

I didn actually like the song that much until i heard it live. Now that was summin else.

Maybe that's what I need.

I loved it at first, and despite not overlistening to it - it got old very fast. It seems kinda out of place on the album too, it heads in a different direction while trying desperately to hold on to the old katatonia feeling, it sounds kinda sloppy to me now.

*EDIT* @Affinityband
^^^ Really? I loved it anyway, seeing it live just made it even MORE aweseome

All i know is, It did it for me live. Jonas was actually far better live this time than on bootlegs and on the dvd. He has a very passionate voice.

Arvo Part - Fratres for violin, string orchestra and percussion
Gil Shaham (violin soloist) and Roger Carlsson (percussion), Neeme Jarvi conducting Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra)
This recording is rather different from others and is highly recommended. There are 5-6 different arrangements of the work for different instruments, but the result is the most moving on this one.

Arcturus - Evacuation Code Deciphered at 04:39
The keys that come in after "We can live again... without rebirth"

Holy shit is that an awesome song or WHAT!? Sting's version is also incredible. I'd also go with Sting's Mad About You. I'd say maybe Porcupine Tree - Trains from the end of the 'intermission' style part, up 'til the end. In the metal sphere I'd say Tool - Euology from "You, claimed all this time, that you, would die, for me..." and Opeth - April Ethereal: "The rain was waving goodbye..." until the end. Absolute magic.

A "perfect" moment has to send chills up my spine. rock-based music doesn't usually do this.

Chaikovsky - Romeo and Juliet, Overture-Fantasy
after the big fanfare crecendo when THAT melody comes in. It does this thrice.
and
The verse of the hymn "A Mighty Fortress is our God" when you sing about Satan is always chilling and gr1m.

derbeder, laughol @ the multiple recordings, that is fuking class
