I ranked Kalafina's entire discrography minus remixes, songs from Re/oblivious, overture, prelude and al fine, so it's a loooong list.
01. signal
02. obbligato
03. oblivious

06. seventh heaven

09. in your eyes
10. red moon
11. consolation
12. Hanataba
13. Natsu no Ringo
14. Hoshi no Utai

16. I have a dream
17. storia
18. symphonia
19. destination unknown
20. Kimi no Gin no Niwa

61. Lacrimosa
62. Mirai

65. Ongaku
66. heavenly blue
I actually like songs 50 and above. I'm indifferent towards 51-60, and 61 onwards I dislike. And yes, I hate Ongaku with a dying passion, but at least its Wakana bridge saves it from being the same as the bottom of the barrel which is heavenly blue.

Um....

Even though Magia was the first Kalafina song I listened to and called it the best song ever, I've listened to it hundreds upon hundreds of times and therefore will not place because I know I will not be satisfied with any place it gets.

2. Destination Unknown
3. Hikari Furu
4. in every nothing
5. Manten
6. Red Moon

I've probably listened to Sandpiper well over 500 times by now. Still in love with it. In fact I enjoy everything above (below?) 60 at least to some extent, after which it drops off quite considerably.

I don't really like believe and heavenly blue as whole but I like the verses. The bottom 5 of the list is the songs that I almost always skip. and I forgot about moonfesta and sapphire. moonfesta is on par with consolation and Hikarifuru, sapphire is on par with Gloria.

Aha, so it is. I was sitting here looking at it wondering where it was going wrong. Thanks.

I like parts of Heavenly Blue and Believe, but they're outweighed by the parts I don't like. It's not too bad in Heavenly Blue but Believe is just a broken mess. I was underwhelmed by it when I first heard it but after repeated listens, both to give it time to work in and through watching F/SN, I've grown to hate it. A lot.
 
I like believe because the verses and bridge's instrumentals is something Kajiura hasn't touched on int he past (and which I quite like). Melody is generic but overall is still better than heavenly blue. I like hb's verse, but consolation and signal do it much better and it's not something that's COMPLETELY recycled. heavenly blue is honestly is the worst Kalafina has to offer, by far, and also by far Kajiura's laziest song.
 
I'm shocked at the hate against heavenly blue. I'm honestly not the biggest Kalafina fan, but I think the song is pretty good. I'm not even that bothered by the naked transitions between each verse, I think they flow well together.

It is definitely not the laziest Kalafina song by Kajiura in my opinion. Songs like Eden, Obbligato, Oblivious, even Magia have very lazy melodies to them, and are only redeemed by the Kajiurago chorus or instrumentations. This song is no different, I think Kalafina's always been like this.

As for answering the question of this thread my top favorites are (currently):

1. Ongaku
2. Consolation
3. Mune no Yukue
4. Yume no Daichi
5. Obbligato (yeah i know I just bashed it above, but the Kajiurago chorus is incredible)
6. in your eyes
7. Kyrie
8. Magia (again, I just bashed it above, but the guitar in this is amazing. I also like the verses a lot, I just find the main chorus very very disappointing)


My least favorites include Eden, Snow Falling, Storia (and I LOVE Historia Op theme, but really hate this rendition of it), and Yami No Uta.

glad to see some Ongaku love

really, the only songs I don't like very much are snow falling and mirai. Eden's started to border into that grouping, though

Regardless of what people say here I think it's safe to say Ongaku gets plenty of love.

snow falling, Mirai and Eden were the first three tracks of Kalafina's that I didn't really care for. It's not a dislike as such (that's just Believe really for me) but they were the first times I didn't fall in love with them either at first listen or over time, and I still haven't. Then again I never cared for Credens in the first place, so not liking Mirai is a given I guess.

Wow! I'm so shocked to hear that someone doesn't like credens justitiam. I always assumed it was impossible to not love this song, I just personally find it to be one of Kajiura's best songs of all time. I love that whenever I think I can assume something across the board about people, I am always wrong. We truly are all individuals with unique perspectives and tastes, and that is awesome.

That also speaks volumes to Kajiura's talent, that her work elicits such polar opposite reactions from people, as a real artist's work does.

I don't think I know anyone else who doesn't like it. I love practically every other track on the Madoka soundtrack, however, with the exception of Ave Maria because it's critically overplayed.
 
I don't like credens either. That song is practically 'believe' (this is the name of the track) from Future Soundscape I imo. It feels like leftover from Tsubasa Chronicle I. There are much better Kajiurago songs out there, and credens is actually my least favorite Kajiurago song done by Eri Itou. Future Soundscapes (TRC soundtracks) have much more gems by Eri imo.

Songs don't have to have intricate melody lines to be good. The way how a song flows and how a song can evoke one's emotion is much more important for me. Vocal delivery by the girls is also important. Keychanges in a song is another factor for me. Thus I found your list is really weird, @TRal55. But as you've nicely said, we're different people with different thoughts and tastes, and that is indeed really awesome :)

Except even the Kajiurago chorus doesn't redeem the song. It's only slightly better than every other generic anime OP out there. Even to the beginning was stretching it, but the power of the girls' vocals carried the song through.

I don't mind that some songs have the instrumentation carry them. in your eyes has a fantastic Mediterranean sound, and oblivious wouldn't be oblivious without the awesome bass and techno beats in the background. You actually come to appreciate the instrumentation a lot when you listen to their songs with headphones on (signal blows me away every time I listen to it, especially the second verse with alternating left-right guitar riffs).
