Recorded around the same time but one is foreboding and one is optimistic.

I'm feeling optimistic today.

These are really different songs and solos, but I dunno what it is but I really like the Down solo.

I've always loved Down, Ghost not so much but that solo is neat. To me Down is a narration of Mike's drug use being sung through Eddie's eyes. The solo is a representation of Mike coming back from his dark times, feels powerful that such optimistic lyrics could result in a such a positive sounding solo.

I love both songs and both solos.
Down.

Down..Throw Ghost to the wayside, even though I think it jams... Why aren't there musical notation marks on a computer keyboard?

I want with ghost just because I love the fuzzy grinding sound of it. Down is great, but it's a greatness we've seen many times before. But I'll be perfectly comfortable with it moving on
