    Your favourite ending part of a prog song? (pick one!)

    My fav is the ending part of Entangled by Genesis





    The part that starts at 4.15, it's so haunting and amazing.

    That's a real toughie. I'd have to say it's a tie between Supper's Ready and the Symphonic Live version of The Gates of Delerium.

    ? (Question Mark) by Neal Morse. the whole album is one song, but the ending is chilling.
    at 2:44 into the closing section there is this haunting one note on the piano. it goes right through me!

    Very tough choice......I'll go with the ending to Yes's "Awaken".

    The final notes of "The Gates of Delirium." Gets me every time.

    I have always loved the crescendo on this rock ballad from prog/hard rockers Omega: The Girl With The Pearl`s Hair

    I love the end of "Echoes," especially live versions.

    Definitely "Awaken".

    42:30 through to the end at 43:53. A brilliant summation to an exquisite album:

    I love the whole piece, but the grand Moog crescendo at the end always gets me!

    Always loved that striking brilliant crescendo on the last section of Hackett's "Shadow of The Hierophant". I wonder if he quoted Wagner's 'Tristan and Isolda' excerpt (iirc) on there, I'd like some Wagner expert on here to confirm that for me.

    Off the top of my head, love the how Can Utility and the Coastliners ends.

    Several for me.. Suppers Ready, Awaken, Ritual, Gates, Solar Musick Suite the list could go on and on
