 PFM for me too - for both artistic and sentimental reasons - though I love the Roxy album as well.

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Roxy is an animal I have not completely figured out yet. I appreciate the group, liike the music, yet .. there is something I can't place my finger on that keeps me from really loving them. Honestly if not for Raff who is a much bigger fan than me, they'd probably get tabled like scores of bands and albums I merely like and move onward from. Perhaps it is some sort of 'connection' that is missing.. albums that do connect strongly with me almost without fail have that.. something that I can connect or relate to. It just hasn't been there with Roxy.

Tough to vote against "In Every Dream Home a Heartache" but I gave the nod to PFM...

No, your review says a lot more   Not an easy choice. Big PFM fan, but especially because of the three albums that follow. Roxy's first two are my favorite by them, so... minority vote for the Bogus Men...

Love 'em both, but PFM is far more exquisite.

Virginia Plain is one of my all time favourite pop songs and I became a great fan of Eno. Always wanted to like Roxy but have this feeling that deep down inside they were/are shallow. Never saw them live but did go to a Ferry concert once. Damn it was boring. Nonetheless FYP is probably (for me) their best album.
Then again PFM is PFM is PFM and this one of their best. One of the things that makes me thankful for my brief time here has been to remind me how good they were. Could not vote otherwise.

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

yeah..not surprised to see the rout is on early. I think my in my pre-tournament predictions I had Storia di Minuto going all the way to the Quarterfinals (final 8) where it crashed out against my predicted finalist (and bottom half winner) Octopus.
