I like overwrought gothic ballads. Smile Epitaph has always been my favourite King Crimson song, so I'm glad it made it into the final Top 5.

The winning Top 5 King Crimson songs are almost the same as my own personal Top 5, apart from #5: Larks' Tongues in Aspic, which I would have replaced with Cadence and Cascade from their second album.

People make lists and you give points to the songs. Not a poll.
