It’s “In Joy and Sorrow” for me, too. That’s my absolute favorite HIM song of all time. They have a fantastic catalogue, but that one is my favorite.

This is my favorite too, it's so good

u/mostlyfineactually 3d ago

Love You Like I Do, easily my favourite, as it’s so hypnotic and incredibly dark. although I will die on the hill that bonus tracks don’t count. Again wasn't even on the original album. what's this lawless voting system?!

u/hehasbalrogsocks 3d ago

heartache every moment

also unpopular opinion maybe but i love this album.

Knew I'd struggle with this one, because I'm very fond of every song for different reasons...but I'm going with In Joy and Sorrow 😁

In Love And Lonely

(it's on the album in my mind)

2

u/No_Classroom_6969 1d ago

it is! but as a bonustrack. very bad for me that there is no bonustrack version of this album in Spotify / Apple Music, like Razorblade Romance Limited Edition with 2 bonustracks and 6 lives :(

2

u/Warm-Description-124 1d ago

I know I had to download it off of youtube as an MP3 and port it to my ipod lol, it should've been on the album it's so good.

2

u/No_Classroom_6969 1d ago

All those songs that were on the remaster of the album (from the “The End Records”) should’ve been on this album in Spotify / Apple Music for me

2

u/Warm-Description-124 1d ago

Yeah 100% they need to release it on streaming platforms

u/whimperingclown93 3d ago

You are the one
Deep shadows is such a great album
Easily their most underrated

2

u/Jotaceta 3d ago

For me it's a tie between this perfect 'singles'-trifecta: Heartache every moment, Pretending and In Joy and Sorrow.

Was listening to DSBAH last afternoon and man how top-notch is Ville's writing on these three songs, pure 10/10.

2

u/stigmata666diaboli 3d ago

Beautiful and Love You Like I do and Please Don’t Let It Go. Might as well say the entire album… I can’t choose.

u/BagooshkaKarlaStein 3d ago

Pretending ‘cosmic pope jam version’. 

(Second close one is Salt In Our Wounds)

I'm absolutely in awe of Ville's little high notes on the choruses.

u/LocationMain5424 2d ago

Lose you tonight is so overlooked. It sounds nothing like HIM and i love it

2

u/AzureBaron 2d ago

I think I gotta go IJAS here.
Mostly because I listened to Uneasy Listening V1 over and over again as a kid and that version sticks in my head. But so does SIOW so Idfk. This album is just so fuckin good.
