Two great rock ballads from the same era, similar in musical foundation. (OK, one had flute and the other had saxophone, whatever...)

I think Color my World is the simpler of the two. It's a love song, not sure about the Pink Floyd song.

I am prejudiced though, Color my World was my wedding song. Hubby is a huge die-hard Chicago fan. And Terry Kath is probably my favorite artist of that era.

I'll take Colour My World. That is such a beautiful and simple song.

The Floyd song is not one of my faves. Very monotonous and actually my least favorite on that great album.

I don't know if I'd call "Us and Them" a ballad...

Two very different bands, anyway - hard to compare the two. And pointless.

Echhh, Color My World is one of the worst songs ever recorded.
Us and Them not a good song either, agree with the post above its the worst song on the album.
So, None of the Above.
