Make mine "Moonchild."
I think this is going to be a recurring theme. Enjoyable first 2 or 3 minutes, then the tinkling, random snare shots and fart noises for another 10 minutes.

Of course the somewhat aimless `Moonchild' would get my vote, but I was really ticked off to read about Steven Wilson apparently cutting several minutes of the track out on the remaster a few years back. That piece may have its problems, but I HATE that kind of `re-writing' of history. I'd rather hear the album faults and all in the way it was originally presented.
Same goes for when CD reissues add either bonus tracks to the START of albums, or even leave off tracks altogether! Brain....shutting down!

I always loved Moonchild, the atmosphere, Fripps noodling and the overall idea of that kind of a song, a beautiful experiment imo. But if I gotta vote here, I'll vote for it because it's no match against the rest.

Hmm... this one is tricky. Definetly not 21st centuary for being a massive force on Prog and future Metal to come. Definetly not I talk to the wind as it has my favourite flute solo of all time and inspired me to master this instrument one day. Definetly not Moonchild for its avant-soundscapes that decribe a nightime forest perfectly.
That leaves Epitaph and Court which are both brilliant tracks in their own right (this is a near perfect album). Going for Epitaph as the middle section can make my attention drift sometimes while Court always has my complete focus.
