Love songs by Prog bands - Progressive Rock Music Forum

Which ones do you know?

Which ones do you love?

No limitations in terms of length or number of songs you post, I am more than curious to see what the fellow forum users will suggest.

My two favourite ones would be And You And I by Yes, and Lady Fantasy by Camel.

Tull....

to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

^ As for Van der Graaf Generator love songs, a few that could be considered love songs come to mind such as:

Lost: The Dance In Sand And Sea / The Dance In The Frost

When She Comes

Lizard Play

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Agree with both of You and add the following one :

Peter Hammill A Way out from his eponym 1990 CD

Out of joint, out of true, out of love,
Out of the blue, out of order, out of orbit,
Out of control,
Out of touch, out of line, out of sync
And out of time, out of gas, out of tread,
Out of road.
Out of date, out of stock, out of use -
Out, out dammed spot!
You want out, you want out of it for good.
Out of the running, out of the game,
Out on your feet, clear out of range,
Out of context, out of contact,
Out of the woods.
Out, out, looking for a way out,
No straws are left to cling to;
Out, out, going for the fade-out...
but what do you fade into?
Out on the town, out for laughs,
Out of service, out to grass,
Out of mourning, our of purdah,
Out of bail,
Out of kilter, out grace,
Out to get out of this place,
Out of this world, out and out
Beyond the plae.
Right out of character, out of sympathy,
So far out upon a limb
you're out of your tree....
Out of breath, out of tune, out of your head

And out of view, down and out,
Out for the count, or is it just for revenge?
Out of sight, out of mind, leave it out,
Leave it behind out of reach
Of all family, all friends
Out, out, going for the bale-out,
No parachute above you.
Out, out, you'll not feel the fall-out
...I wish I'd said "I love you

I think 2 obvious ones are From The Beginning and Still You Turn Me On by ELP.....at least I think they are 'love songs'....as well as these two that seem like love songs to me.

Wondering Aloud-Tull

Autumn- Strawbs

One does nothing yet nothing is left undone.
Haquin

This is a bit special love song but anyway: Big smile

Frank Zappa - "Dinah-Moe Humm"

I couldn't say where she's coming' from,
But I just met a lady named Dinah-Moe Humm

She stroll on over, say look here, bum,
I got a forty dollar bill say you can't make me cum
(Y'jes can't do it)

She made a bet with her sister who's a little bit dumb
She could prove it any time all men was scum

I don't mind that she called me a bum,
But I knew right away she was really gonna cum
(So I got down to it)

I whipped off her bloomers 'n stiffened my thumb
An' applied rotation on her sugar plum

I poked 'n stroked till my wrist got numb
But I still didn't hear no Dinah-Moe Humm,

.................

(from the album Over-nite Sensation (1973))

quality over quantity, and all kind of PopcoRn almost beyond

Couple of favorites:

Peter Hammill - Alice (Letting Go) - one of the most intense breakup songs I’ve heard

Yes - Give Love Each Day - a sincere and happy love song from the Magnification album. I could see someone having this as their wedding song if it wasn’t 7 1/2 minutes long.

My other avatar is a Porsche

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle if it is lightly greased.

-Kehlog Albran

Hands down, my favourite prog love song is "Blue Angel," by David Cousins.

"Into every rain, a little life must fall." ~Tom Rapp

Wondr'ing Aloud was already mentioned, so here's another Tull love song...

And perhaps the most ambiguous love song ever sung in 37 seconds...
