  Strange poll, but I feel as if this was the last album they put out that had some genuinely cool ideas. The New Wave influences make it for me, Tonight Tonight Tonight and The Brazilian are both such strong art rock tracks. I gotta go with Tonight, such an atmosphere. Will also give a nod to Domino, best proggy track they did since ATTWT in my opinion. Gotta listen to those b-sides more, I included them as many consider them to be really good material.

This album didn't make it on my list, since I find it very weak and removed from what their potential was at that time.

I like the title track but in my opinion the two part domino is the most prog sounding thing on the album. Tonight, tonight, tonight is just a stretched out pop song imo and not all that interesting apart from a cool middle section.

Domino is the best track imo.

Land of confusion and Tonight, tonight tonight are reasonable, but the rest of the album is utter sh*t imo. The title track, I find almost offensive.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Yeah - Domino (musically, part 1, lyrically, part 2). A bit of a stretch to call it Prog, though a decent Crossover piece for what it is.

Album's not as bad as people make out. Some very well crafted pop songs that were the soundtrack to the late 80's and still hold up today.

Domino's probably my least favourite track!

1. Domino
2. Tonight, Tonight, Tonigh
3. The Brazilian

I don't know the last three tracks, but I doubt if even one of them would reach.this top three.

Cannot see what anyone sees in The BrazilianConfused

Anything She Does is a really clever tune as is Domino and Tonight. Has not aged too well as an album but hey in 20 years it may be called epic!

Domino - a faint echo of their prog past.

I like the album as a whole, but my favorite is Land of Confusion, followed by The Brazilian.

I've always liked "Land of Confusion." It's a catchy number. The video was hilarious!

Domino, baby! No, seriously, it was the proggiest composition on an otherwise shameful, throwaway effort recorded in order to capture some of the spirit of the '80s (not exactly a lofty aim). Except for its ending, I dig it and wish some of it had rubbed off on the rest of the album.

I find it an enjoyable album even if it is not in the same league as their 70s output. Voted Land of Confusion, with mention for Tonight Tonight, Domino, The Brazillian, and the title track (I knew a girl like that once - very troubling).

Probably Domino just for that "look at the beautiful river of blood" part, but I love this album Smile
