How would you answer this question?
A friend recently asked me and off the top of my head I came up with The Mystery Of The Flannan Isle Lighthouse (1967) and Invisible Touch (1986).
What would you have said?

I don't know what would be the most popular (although IT seems like a likely enough candidate), but I'd say the rarest is The Light.
Never thought of that one - a good choice!
QuoteDisplay MoreGenesis - The Light - Possible Lyrics:
I looked at John and Mary
Before the journey had just begun
I saw a light shining bright
Brighter than the sunAnd we started to fall around All around began to fade
Then he looked and found himself
Then he went runningHey! what was that, long ago?
going out of nowhere Can't you look at it?When I told our friend “come on by today”
It provides me to take your tears away.
Now you see him from day to day
Looking for the lightWhen you somehow bring it day by day
You see him walking you have got it made
Remember, John and Mary weren’t afraid
When they saw the lightHey, what was that, long ago?
Out of nowhere
Can't you look at it?Poor Times Again Every time I love
Even though, I know
Only your heart seems clear in timeLost in a world of hate
Where am I? like a bloom Calling you like a butterfly
All around the people will stare
Stare, stare, stare!So I told our friend “come on by today”
It provides me to take your tears away.
Now you see him from day to day
Looking for the lightHey, what was that, long ago?
Out of nowhere Ahh! Can't you look at it?!When you somehow bring it day by day
You see him walking you have got it made
Remember, John n' Mary weren’t afraid
When they saw the lightLike a bird
On a noose
Like a butterfly
All around the people will stare stare, stare.
Most popular will depend who you ask: most popular with a general audience would most likely be Invisible Touch or I Can't Dance; most popular with fans will be Supper's Ready.
As rarest song I would have picked The Light too, well just for the sake of playing I'd go for something even more obscure, say The Movement or The Wooden Mask.
By the way, is it just me or does The Light show the band trying to sound like King Crimson? Maybe that's why they sorted that song out for recording.

Hmmmm..... I feel like there's all sorts of stuff I want to respond in those couple of lines but don't currently have the inclination. For now, I have to say I don't share your confident assertion that SR will be the most popular with 'fans'.
Admittedly, I'm not sure what would be. It's all to do with this notion of FANS. There are plenty who consider themselves as such but who wouldn't plump for SR as their favourite.
