Expecting Rain

Here ya go...

Narrow Way, Long & Wasted years Tin Angel For MEZ at the moment MEZ

Narrow, Kings, & John right now. Wasted is right there though. Love em all, actually.

I said Scarlet Town, Roll on John, and Soon After Midnight.

Tough one .. Love them all and my fave's are ever changing. At this moment .. Tin Angel, Roll On, John and Narrow Way with Duquesne Whistle still charging on the rail.

Pay in Blood, Scarlet Town, and Tin Angel...Like most others, according to the poll.

Scarlet Town, Tin Angel and Tempest. But Soon After Midnight and Duquesne Whistle are contenders.

"Soon after midnight" is sung sooo well.. soothing... love it. To damn short though.. it you got a song that good and you are singing it great.. lets go for 7-8 minutes not 3 1/2.. just sayin.

Pay in Blood, Long and Wasted Years (glad to see so many others dig this one!) and Tin Angel (this one was the wild card and could be replaced with others as time goes by)

Easy
Duquesne Whistle, Narrow Way & Pay In Blood.

same

Damn that was hard. I went with:

Long & Wasted Years
Pay in Blood
Roll on John

But I could have quite easily threw in:

Tin Angel
Duquesne Whistle
Tempest
Soon After Midnight


Ok, that's basically the whole album.

Am i the only person who really cannot get into long and wasted years? it's sung so...oddly.

me it was:
Pay in Blood
Scarlet Town
Soon After Midnight

Right now its

1. Pay In Blood
2. Tin Angel
3. Long And Wasted Years

Pay In Blood, Narrow Way and Long and Wasted Years. But Scarlett Town and Tin Angel are damned close. Getting to like Tempest (the song) more and more with each listen.

Tin Angel
Pay in blood
Narrow Way

(But Long and Wasted Years and Scarlett Town are damned close. )

"Soon After Midnight", "Tempest", "Pay in Blood".

The title track has grown on me a lot. It's a keeper!

Tempest (best song, instant classic)
Scarlet Town
Tin Angel

After about 5 listens to the whole album, I chose Soon After Midnight, Long and Wasted years and Duquesne Whistle.

I was close to choosing Pay in Blood over Duquesne Whistle, but his voice really annoys me on Pay in Blood. The melody is great and lyrics but probably for the first time in my life, Dylan's voice hurt my ears like someone's fingernails scraping the surface of a chalkboard.

Yes: Duquesne Whistle, Soon After Midnight and Pay in Blood. Though I could easily substitute Scarlet Town for Soon After Midnight but the sound of his voice in the former pulls at me too tenderly.

Pay In Blood, and uh...that's about it. The rest is over-hyped dreck.

Tin angel
Long and wasted years
Pay in blood

for me

After one week of listening my picks will be (in no order), Long and Wasted Years, Roll on John and Pay in Blood. However, it changes almost with every listen and I really love every track on this album. After some listenings Tempest would easily be top three, depending on the occation.

I find it rather strange that going through a lot of reviews so far the title song is received very differently. All from a masterpiece to the albums sinker. It probably depends on the type of song it is, you either love it or else you get bored. I guess a lot of people have trouble with the lenght of it although I never felt it to be very long myself. I'm just getting dragged into it right away. Great storytelling

I find it hard to rank such a diverse group of songs. I mean, how do you compare "Tin Angel" to "Duquesne Whistle"? "Soon After Midnight" to "Pay In Blood"? The songs are trying to accomplish such different things.
