One that springs to mind is IQ's 'Nothing At All' from Are You Siting Comfortably? The album is a average at best but this particluar song does it for me.I love the lyrics and the power in the band's perfomance.It just clicks perfectly and wipes away the mediocrity of what went before.

I feel myself touched in a big way specially when lyrics "talk about me". In fact, I release my own compilations and listen to them again and again. There are too many, so it's hard to put just a couple of pieces, and my sensation is an orgasmic (!) explosion of emotions. It's one of the reasons why I love this genre.

it transports me to a far away place and floats me on melodies of such unearthly beauty that I sometimes cannot believe it's real. Mind you, most of Hawkwind's back catalogue does that after a coupla fat ones...[/QUOTE]

 

That is exactly what Say It's All Right Joe does to me--TRANSPORTS--so intimate and absolutely pastoral and peaceful at first, and then--explosion of emotions. And I love how Collins sounds there.....

"Dust of Time" from "Levitation" by Hawkwind just kinda does something special for me - it transports me to a far away place and floats me on melodies of such unearthly beauty that I sometimes cannot believe it's real. Mind you, most of Hawkwind's back catalogue does that after a coupla fat ones...

Shoot High Aim Low from the pathetic Big Generator.

"Birthright" and "Fist of Fire" from the ABWH disc.

To provide impetus: similar way were

1. Turn Of The Century (masterpiece) from otherwise average (that is good) Yes album Going For The One;

2. Orion--sickly beautiful composition from otherwise fairly commercial Stormwatch by Jethro Tull.

I guess we all have some kind of random (out of the blue) favorites from bands or albums, which otherwise may not be our favorites at all. At least most favorite--so, were there any tracks from those which somehow touched you in a big way? In my experience Say It's All Right Joe by Genesis from And Then There Were Three was such a track--somehow it provided long lasting and very strong impression on me for the last.....many years And I still listen to it...
