Difficult to choose between 21st Century Schizoid Man and Echoes. 21st Century Schizoid Man is actually my all-time favourite song, though that is more for reasons of nostalgia than musically. Echoes is my favourite Pink Floyd song and is such a wonderful track that I find it difficult not to vote for, even if it is for 21st Century Schizoid Man. I'll postpone my vote for the time being.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

Echoes. My second overall favourite of the entire prog catalog.

All great songs. I could vote for any of them and be fine with it. Lizard takes my vote this time, but it could easily change.

Sooooo close between Dogs and Starless.
Starless won by a hair, but it was painful.

From a list of greats, I choose Starless...

He neither drank, smoked, nor rode a bicycle. Living frugally, saving his money, he died early, surrounded by greedy relatives. It was a great lesson to me -- John Barrymore

Toss up between the mellotron drenched Poseidon and The Night Watch with one of Fripp's most awesome solos. I went with Night Watch...Time get's an honorable mention as my fave Floyd song on the list...

21st Century/Starless/Echoes, or could be the other way around. Mix and match as you see fit. Had to vote, so I went with ... damn, still haven't decided. Will vote soon.

At this moment it seems Crimson has more love here than Floyd.

obviously, KC is untouchable here, hands off. KC is for progheads what Slayer is for metalheads. Don't you dare say anything bad about them, you'll be in big trouble (LOL).

^ Pink Floyd may not be so "cool" to love around here, but they are really loved too. They always do well on polls. My vote goes for Echoes just over Starless.
