Saw you sitting on a sunbeam,
In the middle of my daydream,
Oh my Lady Fantasy,
I love you.

Na-chaered palan-díriel
o galadhremmin ennorath,
Fanuilos, le linnathon

Nimrodel gets the vote, but it's close with Lady Fantasy
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Lady Fantasy
Everyone knows rock attained perfection in 1974, it's a scientific fact.

Nimrodel.  One of the very few Tolkien-inspired prog tracks that actually does vague justice to the source text.

From this Mirage album, definitely "Nimrodel" for me. When I see such Mirage topics I hope for a change it might be about Klaus Schulze's Mirage (great album that doesn't get nearly so much attention). Course the other Camel in PA doesn't get as much attention either.

Not to go off topic too much, but this is my favourite track named "Mirage" (from Area): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAU3f1rpwDc

Between Nimrodel and Lady Fantasy. Went with Nimrodel which is the one with the least votes.

"Lady Fantasy" actually brings the album down for me a bit.  I voted for "Nimrodel," and "Freefall" would be close behind.

Lady Fantasy, obviously. But the whole album is really great. Nimrodel contains my favorite keyboard solo ever.

Lady Fantasy is the best song Camel ever did, so that.
