"Onward" and "On The Silent Wings of Freedom" are both good tracks but I went for the latter.

I suppose Silent Wings
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

I have never cared for "The Silent Wings of Freedom". "Onwards" is very nice, specially the Keys to Ascension version, but I have to go with "Owner of a Lonely Heart"... the fact that it is their greatest pop hit doesn't mean it's a bad song.

Owner of a Lonely Heart just over On the Silent Wings of Freedom. Onward is a no-op for me.

Squire really rips it up on Silent Wings so gets my vote...Owner has a flawed charm and I cannot stand Onwards.

I don't know if it's the worst song Yes ever recorded, but I do loathe it so agree in principle.

All 3 songs in my opinion came after the band's massive peak. 

Onward is an ok song so voted for that. But that describes Tomato, an ok album - and Yes up to that point had soared so far above ok...
