You're crazy. Like f**king insane. 

I love this album as much as Foxtrot, so it's difficult for me to eliminate one. But first vote goes to......
Happy Family. Great, very quirky (almost avant imo) song, but a very demanding listen. The Lady is just too calm and soothing to eliminate first.

Man, this is hard. I'd say Happy Family just because it doesn't grasp my attention as much as the others do; still a great tune though.

Nice(?) to see I'm not the only one who cares less for "Happy Family".  Actually rather turned me off the album when I first got it.  (I still prefer Islands to Lizard, in any case.)

Well I don't know about ANY King Crimson album, there is Starless, Frakture, and Level Five which I believe are superior. 21st Century Schizoid Man is probably the only song that's better than Lizard from the early albums, but only because it's a prog classic.

Toss-up between Family and Lady.... went with Happy Family.  Starts out cool but has too much nondescript stuff in it.
