One of my favorite bands is Kings X - and I see a set list with Faith Hope Love on it - very boring - it's good for three minutes and then repeats itself over and over for the next five - Yesspaz, did you pick that song because it's more "proggy"? It's not, it's just boring.
"We Were Born to Be Loved/Faith Hope Love" is great! Yeah, FHL is a little repetative, but it's no more repetative than Oldfield's "Amarok" or no more monotonous than KC "Moonchild"

FHL has that groove:
da da da da (pause) da da da da (pause) da da da da da da da da da da (small pause) (then) dow dOW DOW! dow dOW DOW! (repeat). all the while the three-part "Faith, Hope Love." Great piece of prog delight.
