Only moderately fond of both. So voted 'equally'.

Two of Renaissance's great epics. Mother Russia stands out ahead though for it's emotion and sweeping beauty.

I love both, but Mother Russia is a true classic.

"Can You Understand?". Grand, rich, and intense. The melodies on "Mother Russia" are so boring.

Two great songs, but I have a little preference for Mother Russia. I remember in the 90s to have heard from the radio a rapper using the piano intro of Can you understand? as base....I would have killed him whoever he was...

Can You Understand might be my favorite Renaissance track, and Mother Russia is not, so.

Indeed, 2 superb tracks. Mother Russia has been my favourite Renaissance piece since I discovered the band in the late-80's.........
