Probably like both equally for much different reasons. Gonna vote for Comes Then Goes today. One of Ed's best solo performances ever.

0700 but both are fine.

Comes then Goes - agree with everything EJ said.

I think in the end 7 Oclock is a bit too much of a Franeknsong. I like it, and it works, but I adore the verses, and the chorus is fine. It's the springsteeny verses that really do it for me. Comes then Goes is great from start to finish

Don't like either of these one bit.

7oC is their best song in the last 3 albums. What is wrong with you people.

This is exactly where I am but slightly leaning towards 7 O’Clock...

CTG is incredibly boring - same thing over and over for like 8 minutes

If CTG wasn’t about Cornell, this poll would be a runaway in the other direction.

Love both but definitely going 7 O'Clock here.

Seven O’Clock has a lot of great sonic textures going on but the star is Eddie. He manages to find an intensity and sense of urgency in his voice without screaming, which he often struggles with but hits it out of the park with his cadence here. In the chorus like breakdowns, you can almost feel like you are floating on the ocean with notable but not overpowering waves bobbing you up and down without trying to drown you - all while that steady climb in the ocean waters present a danger to be overcome - nearly precisely the message happening in this song. That’s one hell of an achievement.

Comes Then Goes is a moving tribute to life in the context of a real loss - but it’s not that.
