Oh no, not again! We had this poll a few weeks ago. Someone please come up with something more original!
BTW, I voted Mood For The Day.

I can't make up my mind, but I have to say I like Horizons especially because it's the introduction to Supper's Ready, and I like Mood For A Day just because for it's own sake.

Horizons is a wonderful piece, but I must say that its role is more of an introduction to the main theme (Supper's Ready), as said above, while Mood for a Day has its center in itself - it's a short but complete piece. That's the reason why I vote in Howe's theme.

The 12-string guitar in Horizons wins over the simplicity of the 6-string in mood for a day IMHO.

I can't decide Horizon's is sweeter and less difficult to play (I know from experiance) Mood for a day is longer and quite hard to play, for sound I think it is a tie. Both good,

At the first time I heard "Horizons" I thought: how many guitars Hackett played for this piece?
But then I saw he made it in a show and finally understood: he is a great classical guitar player

Simplicity???
How come I can play Horizon and not Mood for a day (Well, I can play
bits of it but not as a whole like Horizon) and I'm not a guitar player
as my first instrument is the keyboard!!
Mood for a day is more complex then Horizon, no doubt about it! But it
doesn't remove anything to horizon that is really a sweet song and
intro to Supper's ready
I can't decide!

I love both, the fact is that Mood for a Day has been too over played in I don't know how many Yes albums and DVD's, it has bored me.
So I will go with Horizons just by a very small margin.
BTW: Clap´(NOT THE CLAP) is IMO far bellow the level of both.

"Clap" is on The Yes Album, where Jon Anderson introduces it as "The Clap".
