This is a sheer prog masterpiece all three tracks could have the vote but I`m a sucker for the title track so that`s my vote

I'm going to have to try listening to this album again.  I've tried, but I've never felt what so many (particularly on this forum) feel for it.  Please explain?...........

I’m voting for Khatru in this poll, it’s the one song I love from start to finish, the other 2 pieces have parts that don’t captivate me as much.

I really love all of this album, but I have to go with the title track, closely followed by And You And I.

It's a perfect album, but I still have to go for the title track.

There's really still nothing out there like CTTE, although so many bands have tried

CTTE is the epitome of Progressive Rock music. Love all three songs but And You and I takes a slight lead.

Close to the edge, that is side A, is better than side B.

I really hate voting against the title track but I had to go with AYAI which is maybe the best piece of Yes music ever.

"And You And I" is so close to "Close to the Edge" but had to go with title track.

CTTE is the best prog album, and, for me, possibly the best album ever. All three tracks are masterpieces. Picking just one is nigh on impossible, but I will go for And You And I, which was the track that first made me fall in love with this album
