I don't like Banco, but I am slowly learning to appreciate Darwin!

Metamorfosi is a great epic song. Even the version for their english album for Manticore is great.

I voted R.I.P. because it was my first RPI song and is the most memorable in my opinion.

My fav is really ' La conquista della posizione eretta' though.

R.I.P.
A classic trac, but still today, a picture of italian prog-rock.

R.I.P   IHMO, the version of it on their 1975 s/t album in English is (to my ears) way better than the italian version.   The emotions of Francesco's vocals along with the backdrop of emotional piano's/orchestra reminds me of the most emotional Ennio Morriconi piece  LOL
 
 
Get the 1975 s/t if you don't already have it.

Yes that song is incredible!!!

I'm listentening to Metamorfosi after not listening to that album for a long time, and regretting my vote for "In Volo" -- call it an "In Voluntary" response.
