I really like Pilate as a whole, but the bridge is one of my favorite things PJ has done.
I love Pilate, but think that the intro in particular falls flat live. Grievance is another example where pulling it off live is a real challenge because the studio version is so strong.

The bridges for Supersonic and Let the Records Play are the first that come to mind... Also, I always really liked the solo/bridge of Amongst the Waves better than the rest of the song Plus, the outro to Getaway is far and away the best part of that song
I'm just curious, for those that said Infallible... which part of that song is clearly heads above the rest? I'm in the "Infallible is an all-around solid song" camp so it seems like you either like it or you don't it, not so much "there's one really cool part to that song"

Actually, this is easier than I thought... deep dive here:
1. Getaway - Outro Rest of song 2. Let the Records Play - Bridge + Stone's Guitar Intro Rest of song 3. The Fixer - Chorus Rest of song 4. Unthought Known - 5. Supersonic - Bridge Rest of song 6. Force of Nature - Bridge Rest of song 7. Big Wave - Outro Rest of song 8. Gone - Outro Rest of song 9. Inside Job - 10. Bushleaguer - Song title/Intro Rest of song 11. Sleight of Hand - Verses Chorus/Buildup/Outro/General Direction of the song? 12. Dissident - Intro "sounds like the next classic PJ song" by Chorus "Ok, so this isn't Alive" (My first impression as a 14 yr old!) 13. Spin the Black Circle - Bridge Rest of song 14. Present Tense - Outro Rest of song 15. Other Side - Intro/First Verse by end of First Chorus 16. Fatal - Intro/First Verse somewhere along the way 17. Ole - Music Lyrics 18. Puzzles and Games - Intro somewhere along the way 19. Let It Ride - Outro Rest of song 20. Of the Earth - Instrumental Break/Jam Rest of song

I could do without the bridge of Immortality. Don't know what they were thinking on that one. Thank god they never attempted something like that again.

Spin The Black Circle is disliked by half the fanbase. Strange but I guess I can see it.
Getaway and Let The Records Play are pretty good. Inside Job is probably underrated(the broken soul part is good).
