I have Ab Initio. If you want you can add me on MSN and I'll send it to you. However, I didn't hear White Clown yet.

My personal preference is "In the Wake", but to be quite honest, I'm not loving either of the bonus tracks as much as I love other Tristanian works. I think "Ab Initio" is the worst Tristania track.  |

I bought my illumination yesterday and that has Ab Initio, that´s a very weird song, very beautiful too, completely different of the old songs of Tristania, that sounds like a song from disney´s cartoons.

yeah,you're right, like from "A Little Mermaid" I also prefer In The Wake, bur Ab Initium is so quiet and sensitive and smooth like a touch of velvet...my talented Vibeke... |

I FINALLY was able to listen to In the Wake today. I must say, it is my favourite track on Illuminations. The growls and the synthesized vocal "Ahhs" are two things in particular I like about the song, other than it sounds like something that should have been released on Ashes-which is one of my favourite albums. Yes, Vibeke is only in the background (and a little hard to hear) contrary to Ab Initio which features her exclusively. The two songs are pretty much opposite of eachother-Ab Initio is soft, whilst In the Wake is very angry sounding and powerful. Conclusively, it is close, but I would go with In the Wake.

I think Ab Initio is really boring. It's my least favourite song of the whole CD, and usually when I listen to it, I just skip it. I never heard In the Wake though. . . but I'm sure it's better than that.

I haven't heard Ab Initio, but In the Wake has these really cool synth parts where the keyboard player sounds like he's turning the knobs.

As for me, I prefer "Ab Initio" by far (and not necessarily because of Vibeke, who's already great). In my opinion, it has such a wonderful atmosphere, very beautiful lyrics and the music itself is just fabulous. It feels like "some kind of heaven" everytime I listen to it. I've heard "In the wake" as well, but it gets to be the opposite of "Ab Initio" for me. I think that it actually has some interesting tunes and musical variations, but I don't like the song at all.
Sadly, it's got impossible for me to get neither an Illumination edition with "Ab Initio" on it (since I live in Europe) nor the "Sanguine Sky" single, although I would even say that it's my favourite song on Illumination (talking overall).
Greetings and my best wishes to everyone, it's a pleasure to be on this board!

I loved both songs, too bad they both weren't released on all editions of Illumination.

Clear choice for me, "In the Wake"! I really like "Ab Initio", but it's a little bit to boring, and "In the Wake" sounds really new and a little bit "weird", but in a positive way!  |
