Close to the Edge without a doubt is my favorite, but where is And you and I? I think that would definitely be a contender.
One likes to believe
In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion
Of integrity

Please, if you put the parts of CTTE individually, then you'd actually have some competition!

Predictable, I guess, but 'Close to the Edge' it has to be

It's one of the best prog epics ever written IMO.

Without any possible doubt, CTTE - with Awaken a not-so-close second. By the way, I think And You And I should have be included as well.

SHORTLY:

To be honest, live version of AWAKEN from "Keys to Ascension" is the best song I have ever heard...

'And you & I' is only two hours long. A prog epic needs to be at least 1 month in length.

'The Revealing Science Of God' is one of the best epics I've ever heard, and my fave Yes song of all.

 It is a fantastic piece! The best part of the TFTO suite IMO..

CTTE will always be my top Yes epic, but TRSOG aint far behind it! It's such a shame that the build up at the start makes people laugh so hard they almost wet themselves, when I find it so moving!

My favourite Yes epic, my favorite any artist epic, and even my favorite all time piece of music from any artist is: Awaken.

alarm clocks cartoons, alarm clocks cartoon, alarm clocks picture, alarm clocks pictures, alarm clocks image, alarm clocks images, alarm clocks illustration, alarm clocks illustrations

I said: Awaken!

I know, i know, close to the edge is a masterpiece...

but for me, Gates of delirium is the best epic, is a beautiful complex and very great song, not only their best epic, their best song..

Gates of Delirium. Never understood the worshipping of Close to the Edge. It's just strange...
