KC fits well, but maybe Lizard  instead of 21th century ? It's my opinion.

This is the most ridiculous thread I've ever seen on this forum. And that's saying something.

Yeah, ridiculous indeed

But if I have to pick one song, I would nominate Magellan - Magna Carta.
RIO/AVANT/ZEUHL - The best thing you can get with yer pants on!

Take it easy... I don't know if the question is ridiculous or not, but if you think so, simply, you needn't take part in the thread... ... BTW, I couldn't answer the question.

I don't know, but I'll tell you one thing, the Atlantis trilogy by Planet X is hella brilliant. On Live From Oz, it kind of feels like the trilogy is extended to eight (Apocolypse 1470 B.C. to Tony's solo), because of the way the songs flow from one song to the next. It's other wordly. I can't stop raving about this band.

Well... if we assume it's ridiculous... "Oops I did it again" by Britney Spears or "Waterloo" by Abba.

A day at the races - by LITTLE FEAT - incredible peace of music: the intro so bizarre classical and then the machinery that starts and is rolling till the end. Marvelous. Could not play any part of it.
YES - Close to the edge / UK - UK / GENESIS - The lamb lies down / KING CRIMSON - Discipline / MIKE OLDFIELD - Tubular bells / JETHRO TULL - Aqualung / GENTLE GIANT - Three friends / TMO - IMF

If we're talking about the prog rock stereotype (and we all know what that is, whether we like it or not) then it has to be Tarkus.

It is simply,

WHICH ONE IS THE MOST PROGRESSIVE SONG?/WHICH SONG DEFINES PROGRESSIVE MUSIC?/WHICH SONG FULFILS ALL THE CRITERIAS OF PROGRESSIVE MUSIC?

Although I don't really know what you are asking, I would say that there are a few songs that really captures the essence of prog rock, although they sound COMPLETELY different from each other:

- Close to the Edge
- Tarkus
- Lizard
- A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers
- The Musical Box

And a bunch of others of course. But your topic is really absurd. Most progressive song ? As in most complex ? Most typical for the genre (which of course makes no sense when you consider the diversity of prog) ?
