Voted for And You And I, but honestly I've never cared much for either.

I do enjoy both songs! But I have to vote for And You And I, my favourite song from my favourite prog album.

And you and I without a doubt, one of Yes's best songs (but they have so many best songs). Though I also like The Rain Song. Now if And You And I had been compared to Stairway to Heaven I might have had a hard time choosing, though I might have chosen the Yes song too.

I really like both of them, but only one is almost Yes' greatest achievement!

I won't hold the Mellotron against the song (I'm not a Mellotron fan), but The Rain Song unquestionably for me.  I much prefer Houses of the Holy to Close to the Edge.

Yes will win this by a country mile, but I voted for The Rain Song, one of Zeppelin's finest moments, an album defining track in a way which And You & I wasn't (that being the title track). Damn close though.

Led Zepp are alright but very much not a prog band and that someone would compare them to Yes, it sickens me.
