South Side or Roundabout. 

The last 4 tracks in this round are the soul of Fragile to me.  Heart was their finest number to date. 
Short shorts? Ok, I s'pose I can deal with it.

Wow, I just voted in the last round a couple of hours ago.  Anyway, still throwing The Fish out of the water.

Things are getting a bit harder now. I vote for The Fish because I prefer the Yessongs live version by far.

Me too!  I heard the live version first and was disappointed with the studio.  As I said before, it grooves but goes nowhere.  The Yessongs version goes way over the top with power and bombast.

That honor goes to South Side of the Sky, or possibly Roundabout.  DIE, HEART OF THE SUNRISE!!! DIE!!!

It may not go anywhere, but I still think it works great as a coda to Long Distance Runaround. Yessongs version? Sadly, I find the entire album totally unlistenable due to the atrocious sound quality.

The Fish should go in the next round, though.

From now on, I will not like voting at all, since I like all the songs. However, this time, I guess I'll have to be voting for "Mood for a Day". As for the Fish, I really love that piece, but for me it is just a continuation of "Long Distance Runaround"... none of them sound as good just by themselves. And I really like much better the studio version of The Fish than any of the live versions... they just get way longer than is good for my enjoyment of the song; it is a good pretext for doing some bass and drum extended soloing and improv, but I find it much more enjoyable in it's much more structured studio version.
