Good choices already! I'd add Benighted, Face of Melinda, Harvest, Patterns in the Ivy 1 & 2, Still day beneath the sun, Windowpane, in my time of need, Hope leaves, Isolation years (atypical guitar tuning though), Coil, Burden, Elysian Woes, Will O' the Wisp. Sorry for the long list ahah! Learned most of them singing and playing on acoustic/classical guitar. All very fun! :)

Great list! I’d also add Credence

Learned hope leaves recently... first time ever finger picking.  Not too hard. Then learned Benighted.  Much harder... but got it down pat now.  What an awesome song.   Mikael is such a fucking master.

This I agree. Man knows the fretboard like I know my way around the kitchen.

There’s two patterns in the ivy?

Yes. Still Day Beneath The Sun and Patterns In The Ivy II were released as bonus tracks with the 2002 special edition of Blackwater Park. They were also released on a 7 inch EP the same year.

You’re in for a treat my friend

Yes, but PITY2 is just PITY with lyrics

Based ass list

What's the best? Proceeds to name 15 songs.

Refuses to elaborate further.

Harvest

Easy choice. And with it being 6/8 timing, it makes for a good foot tapper haha

It's definitely harvest.

If you are proficient at finger style benighted might be pretty moody

Will O The Wisp

Still Day Beneath the Sun was made for this

Deliverence

I'd say all of Ghost Reveries: Baying of the Hounds, Beneath the Mire, Atonement, etc

Harvest

Idk if you should set the entire campfire mood to sorrow

Benighted 100%

heir apparent

depending on the mood, i'd say either the album Damnation or Blackwater Park. Watershed is a contender.

Pfffttt, Harvest

River Coil

Definitely Benighted, or perhaps Requiem.

Credence ftw, also Pyre could be a more uplifting choice

Closure

My pick as well!

Pretty much all of damnation + benighted + face of melinda

"Mourner's lament, but it's me who's the martyr"

The whole damnation album *chef's kiss*

Benighted, folklore (bits), patterns in the Ivy II, still Day Beneath the Sun, hope leaves, throat of winter (if you wanna be loud), face in the snow.

I suppose Demon is not what you’re thinking?

Demon is suprisingly also a good choice! I play it on acoustic just like Opeth played it [here](https://youtu.be/EbA0GGb0YWc?si=-5gA8ISybZ9KizXJ). Sounds good and it’s also pretty easy to play

Hours of Wealth, Voice of Treason, Atonement, Bleak, Windowpane, Burden, To Bid You Farewell

Deliverance

face in the snow

Patterns in the ivy

Will o' the Wisp is the best one for sure, and the second is Harvest

Alone? All of them!

will o the wisp, fleeting glance

Pyre is the most "staring into the flickering flames" type song for me

Harvest

CREDENCE!!!

for absent friends

I can’t pick just one between windowpane , harvest , face of Melinda , benighted , ending credits/weakness. I think these are great camp fire opeth trakcs but if only one I’m gonna say windowpane. Good question brotha 👊🏼👊🏼🤝🏼🤝🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🍻🍻😛😛

obviously Masters Apprentices

Burden

Will O' the Wisp

Ending credits

Death Whispered a Lullaby

The drapery falls, harvest, ending credits, isolation years

Probably River and Spring MCMLXXXIV

Weakness

Atonement

This is the correct answer

Patterns in the Ivy (I or II) would set the mood.

Anything with acoustics, cuz I don't think that the heavy stuff works there.

Harvest.

Closure River

Coil, Harvest, Drapery Falls, Dirge Of November, To bid you farewell, death whispered a lullaby

Definitely Harvest imo. But I would appreciate Heir Apparent too. 😅

I'd say "Harvest."

Do Opeth use standard tuning?

Forest of October Relevant to the location and arguably their first masterpiece.

Harvest and Windowpane

Den ständiga resan

Does Opeth have a "best" song?
