Heart of the Sunrise is in my top 3 best-ever song list. But really, so many of these tracks are just stellar.

Yours Is No Disgrace is my favourite Yes song - also the first one that hit to me from them.

What a great collection of tracks - so hard to chose. Today I'll show some love to 'Yours is No Disgrace' - the first track I played in my student flat after my parents left for home. Da Da Da Da - Da Da Da Da !!!

Siberian Khatru (about 95% of the way there with my bass run through) all the way!

My top 3 from the list:
1. Heart of the Sunrise
2. And You And I
3. Perpetual Change

And a honorable mention to In the Presence Of, because Magnification needs more love! Heart

I've really been digging Starship Trooper and Perpetual Change lately and Roundabout and Heart of the Sunrise were my favourite Yes tracks for a while but I'll have to go with Siberian Khatru just because it always gets overshadowed by the other two from Close To The Edge but is in my opinion equally brilliant.

I went for And You And I but in truth I could have picked any from the first 8 songs on the list.

I'm not so keen on Sound Chaser and I haven't heard the other three.

wow.  Over 3500 rating/reviews.  I felt like I was a late comer when I did mine, and it was only in the 900's then.

80 votes in total so far - I don't recall ever seeing so many votes in one poll.
 
Funny, I thought Roundabout or And You and I would be the obvious choices, but look at all the love for other songs, especially Starship Trooper and Heart of the Sunrise.  Even In the Presence Of got a vote (I'm very partial to it myself, but because some of the lyrics are a bit cringe-worthy, couldn't call it a top choice).  Obviously the mid-lengths (of the best prog band ever) are as beloved as the epics.
 
Who knew?
