 Topic: Favorite TFTO song?

I really can't choose. For me it's tied between Revealing and Ritual.

You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks.

sure this has been ad nauseum but think we have a new group of forward
thinkers that actaully listened to the damn album instead listening
once or twice and just repeating oft repeated criticisms of the album 
The Ancient..

The Revealing Science of God

Into this wild Abyss the fiend
Stood on the brink of Hell and looked a while,
Pondering his Voyage.

The Remembering, my favorite song of all time.
|

We got to pump the stuff to make us tough
from the heart
Its astart
What we need is awareness we cant get careless
Mental self defensive fitness
Make everybody see in order to fight the powers that be

Track 2>1=3>4, IMO.
The Remembering is indeed in my top 5 tracks of all time, I'd say.

I finally made my mind after hearing the album. I voted for Revealing, although Ritual is not far behind.

I voted for Ritual, and the first one to do so, I see!
I love the main theme played/sung, and the live versions of this song (all three of them that I have on official releases), are just amazing, especially with the added bass and drum solo sections.
The studio version is fantastic though, and I couldnt' decide between Ritual and Revealing Science of God. They are both very good though!

I know what I like and I like what I know. I will choose a path that's clear, I will choose free will. If I die tomorrow, I`d be alright because I believe that after we`re gone, the spirit carries on.

The live version of Ritual on Symphonic Live is stunningly amazing. I recommend that DVD for any Yes-fan.

Have to go with Revealing Science Of God followed by Ritual,
Remembering and then Ancient. I remember when I first got the
vinyl set back in 1974 and had a real hard time getting into tracks 2
and 3. After seeing them on the Yessongs tour at the Boston
Garden, I couldn't wait for this to come out. At first I was
somewhat disappointed but it constantly grew on me. The same
thing happened with Relayer. I don't know if that was the lack of
Wakeman's magic on the keys or not.

I would go for Ritual if the percussion solos around 13-14 minutes weren't so irritating to me! I have to go for "The Remembering", simply because they mention the mysterious Relayer over and over. Revealing Science of God is a close call; I mean, Ritual is 99.9999%, but Remembering takes the 100.

In studio : The revealing science of God, live, specially from the Tsongas DVD : Ritual!!!...
But the best part of the whole album is the acoustic part from The Acient...too bad the song is pretty crapy till that point...

I didn't like at first either, but Howe's slide guitar is simply astonishing in that song.
