This is a tough one... Ghost of Perdition Moonlapse Vertigo The Night and the Silent Water The Moor The Leper Affinity
Too hard, really. But a reasonably accurate list would be like; Ghost of Perdition Lotus Eater The Moor Blackwater Park Harlequin forest or A Fair Judgement, I just don't know.
Blackwater Park The Apostle in Triumph Burden Bleak Hessian Peel I love all Opeth tracks, but these ones are my favorite from the day i started listening to Opeth till to day i think.
dont know if i posted already but if so i'm redoing... (In no order) Hope Leaves, Serenity Painted Death, The Leper Affinity, Masters Apprentices(tied with Deliverance), 5th spot is open to Bleak, BWP, or When depending on mood.
Why even bother posting on this thread? Surely you have something better to do. Anyway in no particular order (and this is hard choosing): April Ethereal Harvest Ghost of Perdition Deliverance Blackwater Park (the intro with the lead is just the best!!)
Sorry my friend but I often post on this forum and I'm a big fan of Opeth, I was just trying to show that these "top 5 songs" are getting pretty lame since all Opeth songs are good and noone even gives a shit about others' favorite songs. But it's OK.
1. Wreath 2. Deliverance 3. Master's Apprentices 4. Windowpane 5. The Leper Affinity I think I am very much settled on these five being my favorite Opeth songs.
I could be doing this for the third time on this thread, lol if that's the case it'll be nice to see how much my tastes have changed. In no order: Deliverance Heir Apparent The Drapery Falls Wreath Can't decide on the fifth.
The Night and the Silent Water Ghost of Perdition Serenity Painted Death Baying of the Hounds April Ethereal Changes all the time. I will have to go with Black Rose Immortal as probably the best overall song. It's diversity is unmatched by any other song (duh). Advent is also right up there. Of course, Deliverance is in the top few but it's been punished.
SO HARD TO CHOOSE! In no particular order: Deliverance Burden The Moor Heir Apparent/Lotus Eater When/Master's Apprentices
This ^ I'd have to have a top 5 soft, top 5 heavy, top 5 for running, top 5 on my car stereo, top 5 live, etc And of course, taste changes over time; e.g. TNATSW is great for me live right now because I've only seen it twice, but it'll wear off.
