These poll ideas just keep springing to mind!

LOL

I'm 97.3% sure that this poll has been posted before (perhaps even by myself) but what the heck, here it is.

Which one do you prefer?

Salmacis is the lost Genesis classic.
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

Salmacis, but this is a rather close call.

A bit unfair as The Fountain of Lamneth is several different songs, but Salmacis is brillant so I'll go for that.

Yeah, I'll have to jump on the bandwagon here and vote for Genesis, but I'm not super crazy about either one.

I chose Salami, with a dollop of Dijon.

I was hoping for Thinking Plague's "Fountain of All Tears", but of course it's not as well known as the two listed, so I wouldn't expect it in this two fountain tale. So, Genesis it is.
Just a fanboy passin' through.
