They don't play Come Back enough. I like it <_< Its sooooo underrated.

The way the solo comes in is VERY memorable. I really love sections of it. Its soooo understated which makes it beautiful. That end is amazing how it transitions into the vocals again. Its one of my favorite solos in the catalog though there are sections where I wish he played a little more.

That Last Exit is a nice little interlude but there's not much to it.

It's simple, but the last exit solo does so much to heighten the drama of the song going into the final chorus.

I thought this would be last exit easily, but I kind of forgot how tasteful the Come Back solo is, and then how quickly it pivots into that beautiful emotional breakdown. that song deserved to be recorded on a different album, where the emotional range of that song would be more effectively captured.


I'm surprised to say this, but Come Back gets my vote. Mike has a lot of great moments on this album.

Last Exit is the better song and all that shit. But the solo in Come Back is wonderful, definetely my favorite here.

I'm sorry, I cannot bring myself to vote against any section of Last Exit ever.
