What's your favorite initial song of any cd Journey did.. Also,what is your favorite self titled song of an album..ie.. Escape,Escape or Frontier and Frontiers.. That was my favorite part of Journey..SP made a big deal out of it and I miss that alot.. I can't believe they did Arrival and didn't have a self titled song.. :cry:

Don't Stop Believin'

Best way to start an album - ever.

I would say Mine is The way Faith in the Heartland starts..I'm kinda burnt on DSB.. That is the song that got me into Journey when it was on the radio..I waited for it to come on.. I would have to say Escape is my favorite self titled..But I like Frontier alot also..

No contest......Escape

Easily Escape as the best title track off any album.

But I'm going to have to agree that Faith In The Heartland is a hell of a good way to start an album. That, or Separate Ways as track one from Frontiers.

Totally.

As for starting off the album... I'd say DSB and Separate Ways were both pretty great openers.

Separate Ways to kick off an album, and I don't particularly like any of the self-titled songs.

Not a fan of "Escape", off of Escape?

Can't stand that song...too long. Sounds like a fuckin' Village People song. :lol:

Escape is the song I would choose to play to someone who has never heard Journey before. It's got everything.

In the Bible, Jesus turned water into wine. But then Chuck Norris turned that wine into beer before reminding his son not to be late home for dinner...

Not that I am suggesting that Chuck Norris is God or anything (he is clearly much more powerful)!

It's shorter than "Mother, Father".

Anyway, I'd definitely take "Escape" in that category and for best opener, I'd have to pick "Majestic/Too Late" from "Evolution".

'keep on runnin' off of escape.that one always got me motivated.

Posted: **Wed Dec 12, 2007 12:02 am**

oops sorry i misunderstood.i guess my favorite would be majestic kicking off evolution.

Posted: **Wed Dec 12, 2007 12:17 am**

Majestic/Too Late - best initial song

Escape- best self titled

Posted: **Wed Dec 12, 2007 12:18 am**

Message of Love and Trial by Fire.

Except when it's -

Girl Can't Help It and Raised on Radio.

Majestic/Where Were You from Captured is my favorite album opener. The best title track is Escape. TBF is also great but like NIG said. Escape has everything. Great song.

Posted: **Wed Dec 12, 2007 2:34 am**

state of grace from red 13 is good
BEST is lights from infinity...Heading into feeling that way/anytime, best three songs off any
except majestic, too late and LTS.
best title song ROR.

After the long hiatus and the anticipation of the new material, Message of Love was awesome...until it turned into a clone of Separate Ways. Still, great opening song.

Gotta go with Majestic/Where Were You though. Escape was fine. Trial by Fire is good, if lying with a loved one in a cozy quiet place.
