I choose Yes - To Be Over. The way the arranged the vocals, guitar and background help create a truly magical musical passage that lifts me up when the album finishes.

Definitely "Epitaph"  - nothing short of stunning! KC seem to be masters of the great outro, because they also have "Starless" and "In the Wake of Poseidon".

For me it's definitely VdGG - Childlike faith in childhood's end. (outro, that is. Such emotion, and after 40 minutes of pure bliss, it makes the whole world a little bit more beautiful)
Favourite intro right now... CAN - Halleluwah!
Haha... it just get's me going every time i hear it..

Supper's Ready and Musical Box, but they're obvious.

I like the endings of Yes'  "Parallels" and "Release, Release", especially the latter which ends on a bass guitar and bass drum thud.

The Musical Box.

Supper's Ready has IMHO one of the weakest endings, I don't like fadings, such a powerful sog should have ended with the phrase The new Jerusalem" exactly the climax, then looses strenght.

The outro to Starless from KC on Red... I get shivers and goosebumps EVERY SINGLE TIME I hear it.  Breathtaking to say the least.

To stray from the typical here...
 
"Three Spires" by Fruupp has an amazingly beautiful climax to ending.
 
"Sleepfall-The Geese Fly West" by Anthony Phillips is a truly magical and amazing ending to a song, and album.  Add "Regrets" from his second album to that also!
 
Best intro I throw to "Tomorrow Never Knows" by The Beatles, truly awesome opening to an amazing finale song!!
 
And I agree that To Be Over is just mind blowing, this song will play when I die and fly throuvgh the universe

I on the other hand, think fadings are a great way to end a song if there is no powerful way to do it. It seems as the song goes on and on...and you want to hear it, but you cant. Of course not every fading is good, but I really like them as a general rule, althought they are not a favorite around here
