Always On My Mind. She sings it beautifully and the rearrangement from the famous Willie Nelson and Elvis Presley versions are almost unrecognizable as the same song.

I can see it with eyes closed
Shadows that look like blood
Dead as far as the mind goes
Fear that comes from my head
Lives in the mirror"

I'll have to go with "Always On My Mind".
Another frequency perpetuated into context, trapped in the eternal paradox.

Acceptance, it sounds so beautifull and simple at the same time
2nd would be Always On My Mind

I have to go for Hell Frozen Rain. Quick :?: Why Is Mary credited as Melissa Williamson in 3 and 4 - it sounds as the same woman so I am confused lol x :mrgreen:

It seems though When You're gone is the least liked, I don't think it flows to well compared to the others.

Melissa Williamson is an alias McGlynn used for her vocals in SH3. She has also used the alias in Bushido Blade 2, The Bouncer, and a few other roles. I have no idea why she uses/used it.

I voted for Always On My Mind. I really like how creepy the song became in this cover, and I think her vocals aided in making it kind of haunting to an extent.

My second favorite is When You're Gone. I like that it's fast-paced, and it really gives off a exciting feeling.

I picked When You're gone because it reminds me of You're not here from 3 and I can imagine the new Cheryl/Heather singing it.

I found it hard to choose between Hell Frozen Rain and When You're Gone, because on first listen I liked Hell Frozen Rain a lot more, but now I'm more inclined towards When You're Gone, it's one of those songs that gets under your skin. Me and my girlfriend spent an entire day with it stuck in our heads :P So I voted for that one.

Acceptance in the first place (I love the "But nothing is changing the pain... too late"), Always on my mind and Hell Frozen Rain in the second (The two are great at the same way for me) and for last, When you´re Gone (Isn´t bad, I like it, but minus than the other three)

Acceptance followed by frozen rain.

I like how mary's songs make little sense until I finish the game and than it matches the game perfectly.
It takes much more courage and intelligence to face truth as it is, out in the world and inside oneself, without wishful thinking or preference based on a superficial view of reality.

"You always feel like you are the only one in the world, like everyone else is crazy for each other, but it's not true. Generally, people don't like each other very much. And that goes for friends, too. "

I have the soundtrack with 'Always on my Mind' on. It's too bad that I can't play the game until a week or so from now. Anyway, I picked Always on my Mind. It's beautiful and it is one of the best covers I have ever listened to.
Silent Hill lover. ;) But that's obvious.

I think i'm the only one who will say that new tracks are kinda dull...Maybe it's because i haven't heard them enough times but to be honest,nothing drives me to play them once more...maybe with time...just maybe... :)

I thought this at first, but it didn't take long for the songs to really click with me :P
I suppose it helped that I was listening to them on repeat so that I could tab them out, but yeah, I think they're definately a good addition to the vocal tracks.
