I think that Scarlet Score For Mescalero from Stuntman is the saddest track ever, always brings a tear to my eye.
Not been around too much lately and would like to express my personal condolences.

Strangely I was listening to Scarlet Score today, in fact I was doing a bit of a trawl through EF's back-catalogue, and found it to be quite uplifting....

Largo from Tyranny of Beauty is a sad one. Also Death of a Nightingale & Midwinter Nigtht from Turn of the Tides.

The last three or four minutes of Madrigal Meridian from Cyclone. Slightly at odds with the rest of the composition but wonderfully melodic and simple.
Just perfect.

I know what you mean by this it feels sad as the meridian is finished for yet another year.

I remember hearing La Joie from JD'A for the first time. I almost cried because the lead melody was so beautiful.

Everytime I here RemoteViewing, it brings me back to 1981 and my apartment fire I almost died in... :cry: Found Exit in a heap of ashes the next day. The album was destroyed but remoteviewing played back without a flaw. :? No other TD song creates more emotion for me than this one.

IMHO the best rack on Exit. Can't describe exactly what emotions it conjures up, but I always feel an overwhelming sense of calm and become strangely detached from what I'm doing at the time when it's played. Tend to find its an excellent stress buster at work. Schmoelling's Fluid Memories For Flo has a similar effect tho the two tracks have little in common in terms of style.

"Charly The Kid" is a very sad & moody song, in fact it's the best song in TD 's history book :)

I think Charly the kid is great too. I was very disappointed when the track was listed on the Tempodrome DVD in error

I just don't understand how such a mistake can get made regarding the index of Tempodrome DVD !

I also expected to hear Charly the Kid when I ordered the Tempodrome DVD. Well, sometimes I wish I never bought this Live concert since I ordered it mostly because of that particular song :)

Charly The Kid or not, it's still a fine dvd, of a great concert!

It certainly is very fine Mick, but I just think it would have been nice to have had Charly....
