And I don't care what the others say, I agree! I know it was a single and surely got a lot of airplay, but that doesn't mean anything to someone who didn't grow up in the 70's or listen to "Classic Rock" radio. |

I have all of their albums up to Big Generator, so I don't know much about their more recent stuff. There are so many excellent songs to choose from, so this is tough.
Yes - Every Little Thing (Best Beatles cover EVAR) Time and a Word - Then (Hate is the root of cancer) The Yes Album - Starship Trooper (The instrumental section is one of the group's finest achievements) Fragile - South Side of the Sky (Wakeman's crowning moment) Close to the Edge - And You and I (Lovely prog ballad brings a shiver every time) Tales from Topographic Oceans - The Revealing Science of God (The best of the four epics) Relayer - The Gates of Delirium (Really grows on you, despite initial awkwardness) Going for the One - Turn of the Century (The most beautiful song Yes ever conceived) Tormato - On the Silent Wings of Freedom (Excellent closer on an underrated album) Drama - Into the Lens (Probably their most underrated song) 90125 - It Can Happen (Cheesy, but I love it) Big Generator - Shoot High, Aim Low (Majestic. Holy Lamb is also a fantastic track) |

Thanks. For the longest time I thought I was the only one on here that liked that song. |

Sacrilege, I know. I find it decent, but it gets kind of boring for me personally.

^Do you find songs longer than 10 minutes to be pretentious? I'm not criticizing you, but most people would choose Gates for Relayer and you didn't include TFTO & CTTE. (Btw, Sound Chaser is awesome. Glad you chose that one. I can't see anything remotely interesting in To Be Over)

No, I love a lot of songs longer then 10 minutes. Iron Maiden's Rime of the Ancient Mariner, All of Rush's epics, and many more. I love Gates of Delirium, I just wanted to give Sound Chaser some love. As for CTTE, I just found it a bit boring, maybe I need to give it another listen, it's been awhile. Oh, and is that Melt-Banana as your avatar?
