All the metal fans out there need to realize that Yes and King Crimson were vital in the creation of metal, and were notably better at it than most metal bands. I have never heard as beautiful a song with metal elements than this, and I have never heard more intelligent heaviness than Crimson's Larks' Tongue In Aspic Part 1.
I was playing this for my dad a while back, having told him about the solo projects on the album, and he asked, after hearing the intro, whether this was the drummer's solo piece.
Anyway, I'm not quite sure what this song is about, perhaps relaxation or something else like that. A great song, perhaps my favorite Yes, though the competition with Roundabout, South Side of the Sky, Close to the Edge, And You And I, and Gates of Delirium is certainly tough.
