I honestly thought my original poll was asking in a fun way to frame some prog and prog-related tunes that were only connected by being actions. All of which, I really enjoy in various degrees.

So, now it's back strictly voting for the music. I added JD's suggestion because I wish I thought of it and it's on of my favorites off Big Generator.

Also, because I made this playlist and don'twant waste it. If you all think of other "action" songs you like, suggest them and I will make a second 'interactive' poll with your suggestions.



Multiple votes. Vote up to three different ones.

By who? Is it an artist on PA?

I can only think of Van Halen and the Pointer Sisters right now.

IZZ (also applicable for the first version of this poll) and Anekdoten.

Too bad, but understandable, that v1 went lockabee.  A nice combi of fun and good taste with choices for anyone if the poll was not about the music, but about the Donald.

Went with IZZ. Great band. I've developed a cheese that can make its own subdomains, each tasting different from the parent cheese, and each able to grow a handlebar mustache!!

not the best version though (the single edit cuts off the brilliant intro)

Def Leppard covered this one. I did not know it was a Sweet cover. Embarrassed

Interesting playlist, but I'm going with the Big One: Yes. This is, in my opinion one of the better Rabin-era Yes tracks. (better than anything on 90125, although I easily prefer that album over BG...).

And I'd suggest Lazuli - Laisse courrir (Let it run):
