To Be Over. Gates has more of musical ideas, even though it's quite a drag in the middle.

Pretty much this. Howe provides the best moments of To Be Over with his wonderful melodic lines but he also overplays in a couple of places. Gates of Delirum is probably the best thing Yes ever did.

Gates is one of the best piece of music Yes has ever written. As much as I love To be Over, I must choose it.

Gates is "art out of electronic orchestration" to quote a very famous British rock music critic. The sound is also thanks to Patrick's "rockaphonic" sound---and it is amazingly powerful---voted TBO.

"To Be Over" is one of the most magical things Yes ever did. I voted for "Gates of Delirium."

To Be Over is beautiful, but it can't match the power and beauty of Gates of Delerium.

To be Over, easily. It's good, but not among my favorite Yes. Gates is really one of their masterpieces.

As much as I like To Be Over, it can't hold a candle to Gates of Delirium an it's obvious who will win this.
I also find that To Be Over gets a bit messy in the second half. |
