I still don't understand how people dislike the cha cha cha bit of Sound Chaser, but fail to take exception to
'kill them, give them as they give us', and 'your friends... tell us of your poison' or even 'twenty four before my love and I'll be there'
Anyway, gave a vote to Siberian Khatru

I did that many times when I first got the album. Less now, but sometimes still when I'm not in the mood for the length or the intro of CTTE, or sometimes I just want to here "And You and I"

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

"And You And I" (15+2/15 points)... by far better than "Close to the Edge" (15/15) .

I wish Yes had done more songs like Sound Chaser.

Yikes! This is the toughest poll I've seen here. I picked And You and I too but I easily could have picked any but "To Be Over"

And you and I for now. But I will admit, Siberian Khatru would be the winner if we were considering the yessongs version.

Hi Roger! Nice poll! I consider the 4 of them very good songs, the 2 from Close to the Edge have a excellent composition and musicianship, but the one that clicks me most is the overlooked To Be Over.

I have removed the 2 mega-epics, leaving just the 4 shorter tracks from Close To The Edge and Relayer to choose from. I would expect CTTE title track and Gates of Delirium will be the most popular from these albums, and am interested which is the favourite of the shorter tracks.
I will set the ball rolling with a vote for And You And I. The instrumental section with Wakeman's moog over the mellotron is pure bliss, one of my all-time favourite slices of music. This is my favourite track from CTTE ( I prefer it to the title track ) so this was fairly easy for me. I am interested to see what everybody else thinks.
