Let's continue on then with out EPIC battle!
This is going to be a short one so we can move along rather fast.
I'm taking the longest songs from each album as they aren't all quite 7 minutes long, but pretty darn close though.
Usual heal / hurt rules. Vote once a day, 2 points down 1 point up. You know the deal.

There's nothing "epic" about H&H exept it's length. tSotSC is a bonafide Metal epic both in style and theme.

Well how about that...we agree 50% Billy...that's quite something! ;D
I do think Heaven And Hell is an epic of the true sense too.

I know the Dio era well enough to've "seen the future and I've left it behind"... :smug:
Can still have an opinion about it, though, based on when i still liked it, despite it might not be the same as yours. ;)

We often agree, it's just that we've tended to focus more on the disagreements. Because that's more fun. ;D

Heaven and Hell is one of the great songs of not only the Dio era but the whole of Sabbath full stop.

I'm actually leaning towards H&H at this point.
TSotSC is truly, truly epic... but it goes *inside* H&H because H&H is more epicer.

Honestly I have to say I do prefer The Sign Of The Southern Cross, it's without a doubt one of my favourite Sabbath songs BUT Heaven And Hell is legendary, it's iconic, it's THE Dio era song that EVERYONE who knows anything about metal or Sabbath knows...so yeah, it deserves to win this!

Well sort of I suppose part from the fact that Paranoid is a dull overly simplistic number and Heaven And Hell is actually quite complex and anything but dull!

Not to mention when performed live, it's just otherworldly.

I think it's more the Dio era's Iron Man.

Yes, that's what I was reffering to as otherworldly in post #53

Time to enter the fray! Heaven and Hell is one of the few Dio era songs that belongs in the discussion of best Black Sabbath songs. Sign of The Southern Cross, while a good tune, suffers from the same plodding feel as the rest of Mob Rules. Plodding not quite the right word...

Hey Anno, glad to have you. We're always looking for new players. These are called Heal/Hurt games. There's usually more than 1 going on at any given time so look around. If you go to the first page of the game, the first post will explain the game. On each turn, whether it's a band, a song or an album, you heal one by adding 1 point and hurt another by subtracting 2. Most importantly, you can only play once in a 24 hour period. Any more questions ask the guy who started the game and they will be glad to help you. Have fun. :rockon:

I think the right song won, as good as Sign is, Heaven and Hell is epic, like the title of the game states.
-
SotSC has some awesome moments for me, but H&H is more epic for me because of the multiple sections and the brain-melting solos.
