Thatīs the point in this thread. I donīt see any idea to put Starless in Crimson poll, because we all know it will win. Now there is some excitement in this. And to me these all are the best Crimson songs, maybe not commonly as respected as some others. I listened yesterday Power to Believe after long time and I really had forgot how great that second part of the tittle song is!

I Talk to the Wind easily wins, though ITWOP and Cirkus aren’t half-bad either.
I use they/them pronouns (feel free to ask me about this!)

Check out my music on my bandcamp!

Night Watch, although it was a tough choice between that and ITWOP (one of Lakes finest vocal performamnces IMO)

Great songs, each and every one. The Night Watch has an elegance to it that makes it stand out, which is why I voted for it.

All the songs from the '69 to '74 era are miles ahead of the later stuff for me.  Exiles (especially the live version on USA) get's my vote closely followed by Cirkus Wink

Great to see Poseidon got so much love here! To me it has seem that album is underrated here, I also think itīs not the best Crimson album but anyway deserves more.

I prefer ITWOP to the debut album. It's like a more cohesive build on ITCOTCK. Some people seem to regard it a weak copy, but I don't think that's the case.

Well, I think debut is better, but I donīt really think ITWOP as a weak copy, althought it has something same. Second side is really different than first album second side. And I think ITWOP is greater than Islands and SABB, althought Crimson made just great albums in the seventies!

Same here. Although only one or two of these would be my on own favorite song per album they are all fantastic.

Sure - I love it just as much as the rest of their 70's albums really. And Poseidon got my vote too (ahead of Cirkus).

Exiles ever so slightly over Night Watch. I don’t know their later stuff by song name unfortunately.


Oh, and Frame By Frame is another favorite that I’d put in the third spot.

The Letter followed very closely by Fallen Angel. Islands is probably my favourite KC album, but its way too hard to choose between songs because most of their discography is crazy strong.

Kind of surprised that Night Watch is leading on this poll.....decent track but imho not as strong as 3 or 4 others up there.
