The top songs from about my favourite albums of each group. It's a draw for me, no vote.

Dogs by a parsec or two. Camel's Lady Fantasy is a fairly derivative tune of disjointed elements cut and pasted together with banal lyrics. If there were a prog band sequel to This Is Spinal Tap, I am sure this would be the song sung over the credits ( A face in the sky, Moon's in your eye, You're passing me by. Tell me the reason why...  ).

I really love both. I guess I must go with Dogs by a hair of a Xolo, but both are among my favourites.

You could make that argument against Suppers Ready and Close to the Edge, but it doesn't stop them being brilliant as well.

Lady Fantasy by far but I will give Dogs credit for being one of the few Pink Floyd songs I enjoy.

Classic Camel. I do like Dogs, but it does lose its way slightly in the middle for me.

Lady Fantasy but it's extremely close and probably could have gone the other way. However, I'm not really in the mood for a dog biscuit right now so I voted for "lady fantasy." :)

Both are terrific songs but Animals was Pink Floyd's best work. Dogs for me!!!
