I'd be torn between And You And I and To Be Over. Probably the former.

My personal favourite is Siberian Khatru. Sounds less complex at first than the other tracks on CTTE but after repeated listenings, for me its the track that offered them most opportunity to head in a new direction, whereas instsead we got "obese son of CTTE" in Tales.

You can't give the best songs from any band really but from yes is would say Close to the Edge.

Close to the Heart of the Siberian Delirium Ritual of Awakening and I

That's the greatest song ever in the history of mankind.

Awaken. Their peak performance. It's Jon Anderson's favourite too. My favourite song of any band anytime.

 Couldn't have put it any better myself but if it was down to one and one only it would be ' And you and I'
