| Another Brick in the Wall is overplayed but it's still a brillant track. I would choose Genesis as a second choice while Yes would be far away |

Wonderous Stories I guess. So sick of Pink Floyd, and still probably worse on the whole. Follow You Follow Me goes downhill after the intro really, but it's OK - just could have been better

Strange for a Floyd fan like me, but it's Wonderous Stories ------------- I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution |

Wondrous Stories is just so charming.  ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

Follow You, Follow Me; a perfect pop song with just enough prog inserted to make it interesting. ------------- A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!! |

And strange for a Genesis fan like me, but it's Another brick. Follow comes second. |

| Genesis for me (love the toms in the intro and Banks, harmonies), but the Floyd number is great (nice economical groove and nice lead break), good sense of the ironic as well. Oddly Wonderous Stories never got me going that much. It's fine of course, it's just me. But got the lot (several times...) |

I suppose Wonderous Stories though it's not high on my list of favorite Yes tracks....never cared for Follow and Brick has been played to death so I rarely listen to it anymore. ------------- One does nothing yet nothing is left undone. Haquin |

Never was a fan of Jon Anderson's voice; Follow Yow Follow Me i didn't follow its mood anymore after some years, got kind of bored of it; Another Brick In The Wall (Pt.2) has a strong sound indeed, and i won't ever be bored of this song. -------------  "Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy."

I really can't stand Another Brick In the Wall, and the Genesis track is just okay – I much prefer some of their other singles like Turn It On Again and Many Too Many. So definitely Wonderous Stories.

Damn! Meant to vote for Yes, but clicked on Floyd!! I do like the Floyd single though.
That said, an 'Other' option may have been good. I can think of many others that are better than all three.. For starters: Hocus Pocus Kayleigh Joybringer Roundabout Living in the past Fanfare for the common man Spirit of Radio Northern Lights Nights in white satin ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

Pink Floyd Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2------------- When he rides, my fears subside. For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night. |

as a huge Yes fan Wondrous Stories is a sweet song and the weakest song on a great album--but I'll vote for it--what is weird about the song is my best friend --who is not a prog fan---somehow loves this song.

| Another Brick is the one that I do like from the list. If it had been against something like "Owner of a Lonely Heart" from Yes, and "Mama" or "Land of Confusion" from Genesis, it would have been a much harder choice. |
