Franz,
Damon listed these in order of difficulty, based on his opinion, on the 18th. This is in this same thread.

Well, a lot of people have clamed this is a silly question to ask, so you should probably trust the consensus on this one.

My expert advice is that Raindrops keep falling on My Head is way, way, way harder than Gardens in the Rain.

You can dash through gardens in the rain. You can't keep raindrops from falling on your head when you do so.

No, this song is way, way, way harder than the other watery songs:

Different kinds of difficulty.

One thing we can say (I think):
Jardin is often played by very young people. Reflets hardly ever is.

Franz, are you interested in personal, subjective opinions of different pianists about these pieces? Even if it was a sort of survey then you should know more about pianistic skills of those who are answering in order to draw conclusions. And you need a proper response rate.

It certainly is trolling when you relentlessly repeat the same question more than once in the same thread, when you read that others are discouraging you from continuing, yet you do so, and then you repeat almost the same question in another thread.

You lose the respect of the community members when you continue with this trolling; that's what it is.

I don't understand why everyone doesn't just agree with my ranking and be done with it.

I am not trolling. Stop responding then if you find my question silly. I just wanted to know. I can stop asking.
