Geddy Lee, Fountain of Lamneth
"Call out for direction
And there's no one there to steer Shout out for salvation But there's no one there to hear Cry out supplication For the maelstrom is near Scream out desperation But no one cares to hear"
Peter Hammill, A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers
"Oceans drifting sideways I am pulled into the spell
I feel you around me, I know you well
Star sliced horizons where the lines stand much to stalk
I feel I am drowning, hands stretch in the dark
Camps of panoply and majesty, what is freedom of choice
Where do I stand in the pageantry whose is my voice
It doesn't feel very bad now, I feel the end is the start
Begin to feel very glad now
All things are apart
All things are apart
All things are apart."

I must agree, about 90% of everything Annie Haslam did with Renaissance would be my first choice ... and much of Justin Hayward, with a special nod to Blue Jays, close behind (with apologies to Greg Lake!)

Another one for me is the slow middle section of Moody Blues Question. Hayward seems to be singing on behalf of a whole generation of people. On a similar theme I would also go for Matthew Southern Comfort's version of Jonie Mitchells Woodstock. Very special.

"And the meek shall inherit the earth.." "I'll remember, the good things how can you forget, all the things that we shared, in our way" "I could never be a soldier, I could never face the enemy. I could never be a soldier, he looks just like you and me." "Don't let it break your heart (heart), don't let it break your heart (don't let it break your)" "I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress" "Will you catch, these words of mine, will you catch, my words."
List the names of all these songs and get a cookie
EDIT: HOW COULD WE FORGET THE GREATEST OF ALL? "Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends, we're so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside..."
