I think I'm actually gonna go with Sound Chaser here.

Chasing Sound Chaser in the first round.

[Mladen]

No way, guys. To be over is the only four out of five stars song here. Sound chaser is a masterpiece, maybe even more so than The Gates of Delirium.

To Be Over is magical and I can listen it any time. Sound Chaser (and Gates of Delirium for the most part) are more songs where I have to be in the right mood. I love them all though.

The outro of To Be Over is possibly the most sublime moment in the entire Yes catalog. I love Sound Chaser but it’s sitting in the shadows of two songs with incredible endings. 

[pg1067]

For me, Gates is leaps and bounds better than the other two songs.  It sits in the stratosphere with CTTE and most of TFTO.

Sound Chaser is cool, but the guitar is extremely harsh and shrill and sometimes difficult to listen to (especially during the solo section).  TBO is good but not great.  It was a bit of a toss up as to which one I was going to vote for.

Yeah, if Soon were a stand alone option it and To Be Over would probably be neck and neck for me as far as favorite track on the album.

You know, for how much I hate Howe's tones on Tales, I'm okay with it on Relayer, and it doesn't bother me at all on Sound Chaser.  Weird, right?

I'm exactly the opposite.  I generally don't have any problem with it, but I occasionally find Sound Chaser unlistenable for that reason.  More to come on this subject when we get to GFTO.
