toss up between Close to the Edge and Plague of Lighthouse Keepers.  Went with Close to the Edge, though tomorrow might have voted differently.

This for me has a joint top number 1 in Dream Theater, the mighty Pink Floyd and the mighty Rush, with synphony x (the oddessy) and spooks beard, shodow gallery and IQ coming second and jonit thirds respectivly.

There are also 2 IQ songs and 2 Flower Kings songs.
I couldn't decide   
And i had Dream Theater's A Change of Seasons but then i remembered Rush's 2112 and I turned it out of that list.

Furthermore, for all of them who didn't see their favourite longtrack in that list I'm sorry but that's almost impossible.

The breathtaking "Plague of lighthouse keepers" to me, is so far ahead of the rest, only "Supper's ready" is in sight. (Although "Close to the edge" is a nearby third to S.R.)  I think its the almost poetic and full of meaning word's of Hammill in "Plague" and the Alice in wonderland approach of Gabriel's word in Supper's Ready. The silly words of Jon Anderson in Close to the edge, still work well with the music though. Sad how Yes's stuff became such crap after Close to the edge though. I'd say Topographic oceans, while a great title, was the biggest let down in music history.

Enjoyed "Echoes", also by the way, which to me, is a better Pink Floyd longie than shine on.
