I was expecting this to be a Soft Machine poll, but seeing as I'm Closer Than Yesterday, I'll vote for Renaissance Now I'm Here instead of Queen.

The Yes track was beautiful... I didn't knew it before. I have this record on vinyl from my dad's collection but I never bothered to spin it. So yeah good song, influenced from the renaissance period (not the band). I voted before I listened to this track, so I went with Memories of Love.

Islands didn't impress me that much on the original album, but it moved me a lot on the two recent live shows I have seen. Alifib is another contender, but ultimately I'll give an unexpected vote to Kansas, as this is just such a great song that I treasure since I heard it for the first time as a teenager. Nice poll idea by the way! |

| It’s really hard to pick one among these beautiful songs. I’m voting for Wond’ring Aloud, for very personal reasons, but the rest are quite good. |

| If Pink Floyd's Julia Dream or Cirrus Minor had been in the poll instead of Goodbye Blue Sky, it would have been easy winners (for me). |

"From the Beginning" is the runaway winner. I like it just a hair more than "Dust in the Wind." "Wond'ring Aloud" and "Tears" are fine songs, too. ------------- https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_ipg=50&_sop=1&_rdc=1&_ssn=musicosm" rel="nofollow - eBay |

| I do love From the Beginning, and PFMs Dove Quando. And even Tull's Wond'ring Aloud (though it is rather the bonus track Wond'ring Aloud Again that I like best). Yet I have to go with the more pop Dust in the Wind. |
