Yes, I should have been more clear. My standards and expectations for Libera are very high, so "far too many" means just a few. Luminosa, Silencium, Lacrymosa are all songs that not bad and not hated by me but I always skip past them. I just do not find them interesting. That being said, three songs on a Libera album that I skip past almost universally is a lot for a single album from them.
Really? Lacrymosa is a hook for me at the very first time listening to it (the video with mini Ben at their 2007 concert in Holland).
I think that live the song would be more moving. Maybe I have just had that album for so long now and over-listened to it over the years.

I think my least favorite Libera song is 'Love and Mercy'. I cannot un-hear the live version at the Kennedy Center honors. No matter how good the song sounds on a CD, that live version just ruins it for me.

I'm afraid I have to agree with that. They were having a rough tour that time around.

I think the issue with that performance was because it was only about 6 Libera boys and then a local children's choir doing the rest. I think there was limited rehearsal time and, well, things didn't go as well as they could have. For a very long time that song was amongst my favourites and I suspect it will be again one day.

@Yorkie, it's very bad that you missed a "very" before the "bad" behind
Touch the Sky.

I am actually amused by the number of people who dislike 'Touch The Sky'...
Don't know why but I used to think it's a favorite or at least a so-so one for the majority. Sue me.

Of the aforementioned lot the only one I don't like is "The Lamb". The progression of notes is dissonant or off key. Touch the Sky is a bit like that but the dissonance is off set by James Mordaunts' voice. Three Ravens is dissonant also. I can't say I like it.

We Are The Lost
Prayer

that don't go over well.

Oh Dani! Deeper and deeper into the mire you go. Better wear a disguise at St George's or Yorkie (and others) might exact punishment for such blasphemy.
