"Think Of Me With Kindness" by Gentle Giant (Octopus album) Very lovely and very prog. ------------- Suritis: The Remembering. Hopefully we should appreciate that given points in time are not so significant as the nature of what is impressed on the mind, and how it is retained and used. |

I also like 'Nights in White Satin'. I usually consider no good love poem should incorporate the words 'I love you', but this makes the exception. My favourite love lyrics ever are only prog-related. They are from one of Franco Battiato's pop records: La Cura (The Care). Those who understand italian or spanish are encouraged to check it out. In the prog field. I love 'Isadora', but I suspect more for the relation of the music with the words than for the lyrics themselves.

Being a great follower of Franco Battiato opus, I totally agree with Mr. Paco
Fox, La Cura is an absolutely great and romantic song, as many Battiato's songs (just listen to "La Estacion de los Amores" or "Nevsky Prospect", just to mention two). In a more prog style Procol Harum's "A whiter shade of Pale" ------------- This is the way the world ends Not with a bang but a whimper |

| I sang "Watching over you" to my girlfriend while preforming live. Actually she gave me the idea (without saying anything of course) but it really is very romantic. |
