Long Distance Runaround is a little too repetitive for my ears. Though the Fish has a lot of repetition as well, it's layering, constant shifting, and layering makes it more enjoyable.

Long Distance Runaround is nice, but The Fish is by far my favourite of the show-off tracks on Fragile, and I choose that.

Long Distance Runaround easily for me, the bass-line is mega! Cool

Long Distance Runaround's bass line is mega indeed, but I vote for Schindleria P., though both parts are about equally good.

Long Distance Runaround for me, maybe the best short Yes track ever. There's nothing wrong with Fish though ...

Depends on my mood for that day.  ....Long Distant Runaround........     Everytime Jon sings, "Did we really count to one hundred?" my quality of life crescendos.

Two tracks that I would rate almost the same.

If I have to choose... Long Distance Runaround.

They work together so well. But The Fish for me.

I wonder where, the Fish has gone?  I did vote for it, and hoped it won!

The Fish on Yessongs is absolutely mind blowing when played very loud.
 
Runaround is a very nice song but doesn't reach the same heights.

For me they are both like one same song, the vocal part and the (bass) solo part (just like Starship Trooper with Wurm to close it), so listening to one without the other just sounds incomplete...

I like the Fish. 7/4 is the swingingest time signature ever.

There's something strangely appealing about the drumming in the verses of "Long Distance Runarond". There's a snare hit on every fifth beat, which produces a rather disorienting polymetric effect in relation to the 4/4 time signature of the song. And at the end of each verse, the interval between the snare hits is shortened to four beat and then three, increasing the tension. The great thing is that this produces the desired effect even if you have no clue about the technical side of things: The song seems to be restless and perpetually afloat. I bet that with any other drum track, the tune would lose a great deal of its appeal.
