^That's actually quite optimistic...
I think that of 500, almost everyone indeed has heard of the band Pink Floyd but a very smaller part could actually say they know some of their music. As for Yes... I guess 25 out of 500 heard of that band, if I don't count the persons I've been influencing in music class
I don't really care anymore though

"Close to the Edge", no doubt. But if I had to choose between this one and "Animals" I would have preferred the latter album.

Close to the edge is more ambitious in terms of developing a single track. Dark side of the moon is more straightforward, it's still a very good album, but, I'm going to give my vote to Yes

Both are flawless.  Yet, YES has an slight edge over my pink heart.

Both are good, but I have to go with Dark Side Of The Moon because it has "The Great Gig In The Sky".
He looks at this world and wants it all... so he strikes, like Thunderball!

I would rather think that it's 25 people COUNTING the ones you've been influencing.

Is this a popularity contest? If so, then Madonna is better than Pink Floyd.
Well...now that I think about it I do prefer the conceptual album about maternity called Ray of Light to DSOTM.
Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

The title track of Close to The Edge eclipses (lol) the entirety of DSotM for me.
