Progress Through Prog Rock (Game)

I have to say I disagree with that. The OP has made it clear in the title and opening post that people should try and keep it prog. There are plenty of “just for fun” things in the prog area of the forum, including most prog polls. In fact, you could fairly easily make an argument that everything on the forum is “just for fun”.

For me, the Just For Fun section of the forum is for things that are just for fun and not prog related. If they are kept prog, then it makes sense to me for them to be in the prog section. If this were just one video being posted one after the other with no comment or explanation, it might make more sense to move it, even if all the videos are prog. But the way the thread is going, could well elicit some prog discussion to go along with the videos.

I’ve never heard that SB song, but it begins in a very “Roundabout” fashion, for sure, before hitting the more expected Gentle Giant vocals.

I can't think to anything nearly similar to that masterpiece, so let me joke with the chorus of this song:

Having seen reviews of Duncan Brown on the PA home page, I take the opportunity to embed this side project of him.

Okay. I have a cool and unique game here.

I embed a song here, and then someone else replies to that with a song from a different artist they believe is similar embedding the track into the comment. Then another person responds to them with a track they believe is similar to that one. etc. Let's try to get a long chain going or related songs and see where this thread leads to.

Once an artist has been used, let's try to refrain from embedding them again for a little while, so the thread doesn't bounce back and forth between the same few artists eternally. Let's also try to keep the thread centered around prog - while the artist doesn't need to be on the PA (for example, Avenged Sevenfold's The Stage, or Meat Loaf's Bat Out of Hell), let's try to avoid artists like AC/DC and Katy Parry to remain oriented on prog. And also try to avoid relating songs like Symphony X's Prelude and Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Night Castle and Epica's Dies Irae (from their Classical Conspiracy Live album) as they are all a rendition of the same classical piece.

For example:

Say the most recent embed is Kansas's "Song for America:"

and the you find Symphony X's "Rediscovery, Pt. II (The New Mythology Suite)" to be very similar, then you should embed it below it:

If you don't see the similarities in these songs, go to the 3:15 mark and the 1:15 mark respectively.

Then someone else thinks that if you like SX's Rediscovery, then they'll like Scardust's Break the Ice:, so they embed it:

Renaissance's "Carpet of the Sun:"

etc.

Let's say somewhere along the line, someone embeds Orphaned Land's "The Path, Pt. 1 - Treading Through Darkness:"

and you think the section at starting at 1:37 is very similar to the section at 0:43 of Wilderun's "Identifier," so you embed it in the next comment:

So where shall I start... First song in comment below. None of the artists I have shown above shall be counted as having been used.

For those who don't know how to embed a comment here, you type [ TUBE ]xxxxxxxxxxx[/TUBE], without the space in the first "[ TUBE ]", and with the x's representing the 11 digit sequence of characters at the end of the URL of a Youtube video (it cannot be in a playlist) following the "watch?v="
