A poll inspired by another poll. For me, LitOA and FtLoG are absolutely stunning and equal quality-wise. Top of the line Flower Kings bliss. But I'll vote for LitOA because it's a ~20 minute epic. Which song would you choose? ------------- “On the day of my creation, I fell in love with education. And overcoming all frustration, a teacher I became.” — Ernest Vong |

Took the time to listen reasonably well to the ones I had not known, and I end up going for the short and sweet "Love is the Word". "For the Love of Gold" is the one I had known best, but while it is good song, it had sounded rather too derivative of Yes for me. ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Various music I am very into: a youtube playlist with two tracks per act |

| “Love Supreme” gets my vote as it is one of my favorite songs of all time. |

I mean, this comment could really be applied to most of the band's material.

| I like the Flower Kings and all these songs are really good, but my vote goes to Love is the Only Answer. |

 I wanted to be gentle. That said, that is one where the derivativeness of Yes is a more obvious and off-putting factor for me in my appreciation despite actually preferring the music to most of what I have heard of The Flower Kings. Anyway, I am no The Flower Kings expert -- never been one of my preferred bands, and I'm not very big on Yes. Post 70s, I tend not to turn to the more Symphonic Prog type bands, preferring RIO/Avant, Post Rock, Zeuhl, experimental, Neo Psych and Neo Krautrock, various jazz and folk ones.... The Flower Kings Spa ce revolver was one of the first albums I purchased in the early 200s hoping to update my tastes in the prog world, but I really did not like it, especially as I found it so unpleasantly noodle-y, and kind of slick? I soon discovered Miriodor, and that was way more interesting to me.------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Various music I am very into: a youtube playlist with two tracks per act |
