It's a tie between Awaken and CTTE.
My favorite epic, not by Yes, is either Tarkus or 2112.

In the Court of the Crimson King isn't an epic! But I'll choose Supper's Ready
since it's my favorite song out there.

Hemisperes,followed very closely by Supper's Ready.
Where is All of the Above by Transatlantic?That would have definitely gotten my vote.

Justice has been made. I really though the Prog-pop epic "close to the edge" would get more than the most creative epic ever.
Where´s "Shine" ?...That one is much better than most on the list.

Current favourite is IQ's "Harvest of Souls". Long-term fave is either CTTE or Gates, it varies.

Well being a HUGE Dream Theater fan I'd have to choose Octavarium. I think because the way it sound and the way the vocals are written that it beats the rest of them.

Well, it's between Gates of Delirium, A Passion Play, and Plague of the Lighthouse Keepers, but seeing as how Plague of the Lighthouse Keepers isn't on this list and Gates of Delirium already has enough votes, I'll go with Passion Play.

NO......................................
Some of my favorites aren't on the list!
Tarkus, Kan Evil 9, A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers, Mergulys II, Nine Feet Underground, Baker St. Muse..............................
I would have done the same though.
I'll go with Echoes, Suppers Ready, and In The Court of the Krimson King.
