This is one rare time that I actually vote King Crimson, as Shine On bores me to death.

Definitely Shine On for me. Such a beautiful and vivid piece of work 
Take me down, to the underground
Won't you take me down, to the underground
Why oh why, there is no light
And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life

Pink Floyd easily for me.
But comparing songs with a difference in length of more than 16 minutes is very hard and may be unfair.

Or not. Unless the length is the weightiest decisive factor Stern Smile.

Shine On, easily. And not only because it is thrice as long as In the Court (though the latter is also excellent0.

Though I prefer KC by far in general, in this case it's Shine On (the intro is particularly great). Compared to the other songs on IthCothCK [album], IthCothCK [song] is not that good.

Falling out of it with "In The Court ...". Still digging "Shine On ..., pts. 6-9", so there goes my vote.
