If someone had to ask you´....
"What is your favourite Progressive Song?", what would you say?
 
By that I mean the song that stands out from all the rest, the one that touches your very soul!
(Please no lists of songs, only one!)
 
Mine would be The Pinnacle-Kansas,( Musically, Lyrically, Spiritually Brilliant!)

Don´t be nervous guys!
It´s not a debate over which song is better, It´s about your choice
It can be Yes, Dream Theater, Marillion...anyone..
The idea of this thread is to get some great suggestions of songs.

Nervous??, Hell no. My favorite Prog song of all time is a flip between The Revealing Science of God and Ritual, but if you ask me next week i might say it's The Ancient. Safe to say it's my all time fave album in the prog genre.

my favorite is NATURAL SCIENCE by RUSH...allthough it may not be widely considered to be one of the best
If you choose not to decide you still have made a choice.

Robert Wyatt: Alifib, Alife, Little Red Robin Hood Hit the Road.

The whole side 2 on Rock Bottom is really one 20 min. long song/composition, so its impossible to choose one third of it. It stands out from the rest, and touches my soul.

For a more typical song I'd have to choose Peter Hammill: A Louse is Not a Home.

(or KC: Starless)
Over land and under ashes
In the sunlight, see - it flashes
Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me
Don't believe in me

I'm sorry,I will have to post more than one:

Most likely Misunderstanding by Genesis, Assassing by Marillion, Dinasour by King Crimson or (as a proto-promontory-prog essence) Obladi Oblada by The Beatles.

My avatar may provide a hint...
 
My Room
 
...dreams, hopes and promises, fragments out of time,
all of these things have been spoken.
Still, you don't understand how it feels when I'm
waiting for them to be broken...

Gates of Delerium - Yes

I play it as often now as I did 25 years ago when I first 'got into' Yes. It also helps a 5km run simply fly by.
My father was a beekeeper before me; his father was a beekeeper. I want to follow in their footsteps. And their footsteps were like this. (Runs screaming) "AAAAAAAH! I'm covered in beeeeees!" - Izzard
