There's lot's of songs I really love on the list, a few I don't know, but the one I have been most in love with in the last years is "Nights in White Satin", so that's the one I'm going with. By the way, I have the impression the choice for Kansas should have been "Dust in the Wind"... and perhaps that one would have given me a bit more of a fight to choose.

There are a lot of songs I can't stand on this list - Another Brick in the Wall, Owner of a Lonely Heart, Aqualung, Dreamer, Evil Woman etc. which makes me think that I just don't like prog when it merges with Top 40.

So many great songs, it's really difficult to vote. However, I guess I'm going with "Nights in White Satin"... lately I've been very much into that song. I was thinking, shouldn't "Dust in the Wind" have been included among Kansas songs? Well, I don't remember if that one was included in the 10 polls, but if not I guess it was a major missing song.

Don't know regarding sales numbers but LITP pips BITJ in terms of chart success.

LITP reached No. 3 on the UK charts in 1969 and No. 11 on the Billboard charts in 1973.

BITJ did not chart in the UK but reached No.12 on the Billboard charts in 1974.



Actually, the song "Thick as a Brick" went to #1 in the US and #5 in the UK, so technically it's their best selling single. It was a 43:46 minute single, but still...Wink
