    I am thrilled that Journey Of The Sorcerer is immune this round. That was a bit of a surprise!

    I vote for Too Many Hands. After my re-listen yesterday, I realised that it's simply my least favourite, after Visions. Although there's nothing bad about it - and the guitar work is awesome - I just prefer the other tracks. They each affect me a little more than Too Many Hands does.

    Aww Lou! You know I'll look after you! Though seriously, I would hope it wouldn't have been eliminated so early in the game as well. For this round I'll vote off the song that won me the immune question -
    I Wish You Peace

    Has anyone ever driven down a darkened road while it storms - lightning, thunder, wind, pounding rain - with Journey of the Sorcerer playing full blast on the car stereo?

    Well, I just did, and it was AWESOME.

    So glad it's immune this round!

    Oh, and about voting - I adore Too Many Hands and I'm really surprised at all the votes it's getting!

    I cast my vote for I Wish You Peace.

    I like it more than most people do and I find it pleasant to listen to (especially the "and when storms are high and your dreams are low" part with the Eagles adding that "aaahhh" to give it extra oomph), but that overlong instrumental bridge kills the song's emotional momentum. Plus, they should've stopped at three repetitions of the "I wish you the strength..." series at the end. By the fourth one you're thinking "When will this end?" It's true that the last "I wish you the strength to let love go" and brief instrumental outro leave you with a sense of closure - I just wish the closure had come a line sooner. Little things like that do make a difference, at least to me!

    Always in our hearts, Never forgotten

    I adore "Too Many Hands" as well. Sun roof open blasting on a sunny day.

    My vote is again for "I Wish You Peace." (Just because of Patti Davis)
