"Midnight Sun" is my favorite Asia song (and it's on Alpha), and sounds vaguely Steve Hackett in moments, but there are a few truly excellent tracks from that album. "The Last to Know" and "Eye to Eye" (which is a bit more Buggles than prog-rock in its eccentricities) are damn good, too.

This song IS my FAVORITE Asia song!!

Interesting Asia song to pick from the debut album. Everyone either goes for the radio hits Heat of the Moment or Only Time Will Tell and the more prog songs, Sole Survivor and Time Again. A classical KZbin did a great break down of Heat of the moment. Not being musical, I didn't realize. It is in D, which is odd for a pop song. The song goes from 4x4 to 4x8 and back to 4x4. You left out Geoff Downes in The Buggles before he and Trevor Horn were asked to join what became the Yes Drama lineup. I believe this was a Howe composition is on one of his Homebrew albums. The lyrics are different and it has more a demo sound.

Coming from the prog world, I think owner of lonely heart and heat of the moment are my least favs from their respective albums! I like them; however, I think all other material is superior.
