Jethro Tull, 'Reasons for Waiting' or 'Wond'ring Aloud'. I don't particularly care for the choices offered.

Think of Me With Kindness is great but Matte Kudasai is greater.

Gentle Giant followed by Van der Graaf Generator. The true greatest prog ballad, though, would probably be Islands by King Crimson or Appena Un Po by PFM.

King Crimson, followed by ELP and then Yes.
