Best Coheed and Cambria Songs

I have heard every song by the band, and this, "The Willing Well II: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness," and "The Light & the Glass" are my favorites. People who vote for this when it's the only song they've heard by the band don't deserve to vote here. I mean, this is my favorite song, but at least I've heard it all.

90% of the newcomers would probably prefer "The Crowing" or "Gravity's Union" if they at least tried to get into the band more.

Anyway, the vocals here are easily my favorite of any song, especially during the verses. The pinch harmonics during the chorus are amazing, making it my favorite part by a margin, along with pretty much my favorite piece of music ever. Definitely their most popular song for a reason.

One of Coheed and Cambria's longer tracks, it's definitely an unforgettable one. I always find myself listening to it in its entirety.

Tons of great songs to choose from, but this one inspires, rocks, and frightens. It is intense and keeps you coming back for more.

This song is a masterpiece, by far my favorite, full of emotion and powerful moments!

What?! Not even on the list! I love all of Coheed's songs, and I can't specifically pick a favorite, but seriously, this song is incredible and so catchy!

Welcome Home is a brilliant song, and I praise it for giving Coheed and Cambria the attention and recognition they deserve, but believe me, it's not the best they have to offer.

The best song they do in my opinion. I understand it's more punk rock than Coheed's normal style, but it shows the extent of their musical prowess by going into a different style and being better than just about everyone else.

Great song, and the video makes it even better!

Easily a top 10, probably top 5 Coheed song!

What did I do to deserve THIS? I mean, I'm so happy listening to this song. Love Coheed and Cambria!

An amazing example of their earlier works, with powerful lyrics and a grooving rhythm throughout. By far the catchiest, most well-rounded song. I would recommend this to anyone new to Coheed as part of the first five songs you should hear: The Suffering, The Crowing, In Keeping Secrets, The Hard Sell, and The Broken. Refrain from listening to Welcome Home and A Favor House Atlantic until much later.

How the hell is this not number one? This is their biggest song without a doubt. It's the only song that gets radio play.

This was the pinnacle song for me. Prior to hearing The Crowing, I had only ever heard A Favor House Atlantic due to its popularity on MTV at the time it was released. I didn't look further into the band until I heard this song as the credit music to an animation I'd watched, and I immediately wanted to listen to more material.

Not only is the song dynamic in its tone, ranging from calm melodies to the harder ending, but the lyrics also fit well with the story told in The Amory Wars of the events leading up to the name of the song. Claudio is a fantastic singer, and this song definitely showcases how well he can create harmonies. Off the Beat also made a fantastic a cappella rendition, which this song so well deserves.

Time Consumer has the best intro, serrated with raw emotions through the verses until the outro!

No matter how many times I have heard this song (a lot, by the way), I always recognize this as some of Coheed and Cambria's best work. Also, am I the only person who thinks this reads almost like a suicide note from Joker to Batman?

As a huge fan of the Batman Arkham games and Coheed and Cambria, these two go well together. I wouldn't mind hearing more Batman soundtracks from them. One of their best, in my opinion!

From the Batman Arkham City album, you HAVE to listen to this before you vote. Trust me, you'll think it's their BEST!

This is ROCK! More rock than the others! This is what puts the sun in the sky even if it's raining. Yeah, man!

The band's talent really shows here. Awesome song.

Musicianship at its absolute finest! This incredibly beautiful and powerful song moves me to tears with its breathtaking skill, and seeing it performed live is a religious experience!

This song should be in the top 5. The only reason "Welcome Home" is #1 is because it is a mainstream song. There is so much more greatness deep inside the belly of this band.

This song is the shiz, meng. The intro is kinda repetitive, but after that 45-second mark, the vocals kick in, and Claudio kills it. The solo at the end is beast to top it off.

Welcome Home is and will probably always be my pick as the best, but I love this song. It is so good, everything from the beginning to the end. Especially the pre-chorus with that doom metal-ish guitar progression near the end of it. I have only listened through Good Apollo Volume 1, The Afterman albums, and TCBTS, so for all I know, SST, IKSSE, NWFT, and YOTBR might have amazing tracks that are a million times better.

So far, my top ten list is:
1. Welcome Home
2. Gravity's Union
3. Mother Superior
4. Tied between Ten Speed (Of God's Blood And Burial) and A Favor House Atlantic
5. The Audience
6. Peace to the Mountain
7. Key Entity Extraction II: Holly Wood the Cracked
8. Key Entity Extraction V: Sentry the Defiant
9. Tied between The Suffering, Key Entity Extraction III: Vic the Butcher and Key Entity Extraction I: Domino the Destitute
10. The Willing Well IV: The Final Cut

This song has 10 bridges. It doesn't get any better than this. The song continually gets cooler the farther you get into it.

Why the hell is this so far down?! This list is so misleading to potential Coheed fans!

I expected top 5 for this and the rest of the Willing Well to be up there too.

A very complex song that makes the wait through some of the samey stuff in the middle of the album worthwhile.

This song is absolutely incredible. It changes pace so many times, but it still manages to keep that intense feeling throughout the almost eight-minute run time. And what an ending...

Amazing song, totally deserves to be in the top 10!

What?!? Coheed and Cambria are probably one of the best bands I know! Amazing music, breathtaking meaning to their songs. But I was positive this would be near the top! Oh well, I guess it's just my opinion. I'm also curious why The Crowing isn't in the top 10.

Gotta put this one as my #1. This one, in particular, has so much bite and passion to it. It definitely gets me pumped when I hear it.

Love this song. Makes me want to take on anything.

This song has probably the best chorus Coheed's ever written, and the guitar part is sick.

Loved this song since I first heard it!

Thanks all for sharing the best songs :) Made my life easier by picking the best ones.

By far their best work. SSTB blows Welcome Home out of the water, and this song is the best from SSTB. Fear Through the Eyes of Madness should be higher. So should 2113.

Coheed does a lot of things very well, and sometimes their progressiveness gets lost on some people. However, I don't care who you are. If you are not tapping your foot and nodding your head by the end of this song, you must be deaf.

A Coheed song with rapid pacing, an awesome solo, and a crazy yet intriguing story. Arguably Coheed's best song in this type of structure!

I blast this song in my car every single day. Along with "Once Upon Your Dead Body," which isn't anywhere on this list, I'm outraged!

For being a Coheed fan for years, this is honestly one of their best songs! It's so underrated. Give it a listen. The harmonies are incredible.

This song is so far down the list, and it should be around the 9 or 10 mark.

How this is all the way down in 42nd is beyond me. It's like a better version of The Suffering.

Such a great ending to the saga.
