For me the best song ever is the live version (Seconds Out) of the Cinema Show from Genesis.

I'm going with you, I saw that song live and it's never been the same (it was amazing even before I saw it live)

Oh no, you got me there. Me too.
It's the hand clapping, gotta be the hand clapping and the banjo solo.
Among everything else.

Tarkus.  Once I heard it I knew that there was nothing like it and there may never be again.

It is certainly difficult to determine which song is the best because it constantly changes when I listen to another masterpiece of progressive rock. However, Harmonium - Lumières de vie is probably one of my best progressive rock song!

Yes -  The Gates of Delirium

It's just an absolute roller-coaster, there's nothing like it.  Yes at their freakiest (only matched by "The Ancient on TFTO).  They were best when they were freaky or funky, or both (which I find is the case with Gates).

A close second, however, is Larks' Tongues In Aspic, Part Two.  I just love all that 10/8 stuff; it grooves nicely.

That is indeed a great one.  I'll follow your suit with a Canterbury Scene one. I'll say, ah, Robert Wyatt's "Little Red Riding Hood Hit the Road" or "Little Red Robin Hood Hit the Road"  -- was considering a John Greaves one.

Ooooo...excellent choice.  Hogarth's scream at the 1:45 mark is one of my favorite moments in all of music.
 
Having said that, my favorite song is:
