Pink Floyd - The Great Gig In The Sky (I so want to touch and be touched when this song is playing, if only we had an extended version)
 
 
    No doubt, I believe I left it off  my list, so just move it to the top! 


A great song off of a great album. Most understated and one of the least played songs off that album on the radio.

A bunch of Pain of Salvation and Porcupine Tree songs. Very touching music indeed.

Emotional prog... there are so many emotional tracks out there so...
1 - Le Orme "Un Angelo"
2 - King Crimson "Island" (the song)
3 - Gila "In a Sacred Manner"
4 - Moody Blues "Watching and waiting"
5 - New Trolls "Una Miniera"
6 - Popol Vuh "Abschied"
7 - Pavlov's Dog "Late November" (I missed n. 7 out... I cannot count!!!Dead)
8 - Roxy Music "2HB"
9 - Riccardo Zappa "Frammenti"
 
the last one, very difficult (I'd leave it blank for any suggestions, but I won't)
 
10 - Tangerine Dream "Sequent C"

^I love that band... If it weren't for my intention not to include suites, I would have put "Birth of Liquid Plejades"

VdGG have been mentioned several times, but I wonder why no-one named "House with No Door" yet.
Peter Hammill's "This side of the Looking Glass"
one that always touches me is "Pharaoh" from the Amon Düül 2 album "Only Human" (which on the whole is better than its average rating, in my opinion, though it is not really a typical Amon Düül 2 album. but it is a good symphonic prog album which I would give 3 stars)
Robert Calvert`s "Hero With One Wing" is a touching song too, in my opinion
