Harvest of Souls is one of the best songs ANYONE's ever done! I don't care if
it is eerily redolent of Supper's Ready! ------------- The world keeps spinning, people keep sinning And all the rest is just bullsh*t -Steve Kilbey |

| I had a hard time choosing between The Last Human Gateway and The Wrong Side of Weird. I voted for The Wrong Side of Weird. |

There's quite a few worthy songs, but I too have to choose Harvest of Souls. ------------- www.last.fm/user/ThisCenotaph

For me, it definitely is The Last Human Gateway, although I absolutely love Harvest of Souls, easily one of their strongest songs, it's just the raw energy of The Last Human Gateway (and that intro just kills me everytime). -------------

They're all great.I also adore their "epics" from The Wake - The Magic Roundabout(BTW,a great name for the prog-band...I'll borrow it  ),Outer Limits,Headlong,Widow's Peak...I wanted to pick Harvest of Souls,but I've noticed a total abscence of votes for The Seventh House!!!How dare you ,IQ fans!!!  It's my second fav after Harvest!!!I voted for it Then Further Away follows ,along with The Last Human Gateway and Sacred Sound(another great name for a prog-band!!!) 
I like band The MAGIC ROUNDABOUT and their debut "Sacred Sound" /

My range of voting was very limited as the only IQ albums I focused on were Dark Matter and the Seventh House. I voted for Harvest of Souls, a good neo-prog epic. After that The Wrong Side of Weird comes very close..

| Voted The Last Human Gateway. There are many songs (epics) under 10 minutes which I like better though, especially from The Wake. |

I voted for The Seventh House, still my favourite IQ song is definitely Leap Of Faith (it lasts 7 minutes or so). It's available to listen on this site, so I recommend to do it if you haven't before. It's just brilliant, maybe the only flaw is that it's just a bit too similar to Genesis old songs, but it can be a merit for some people (like me ). Besides this, I've always liked The Last Human Gateway, Enemy Smacks and Sacred Sound. Harves Of Souls is great as well. ------------- You can choose a ready guide In some celestial voice If you choose not to decide You still have made a choice |
