Yes, but Roger wrote and sang that one. The Davies/Hodgson songwriting credit was more a legal agreement between the two, kind of like how the Lennon/McCartney label worked in the Beatles (obviously not counting the songs George and/or Ringo wrote on).

Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan. But it's not the proggiest, just the longest. The in honor of part I get, I mean, the man wrote the whole album 😲

They're both fantastic songs, I just wasn't sure how familiar you were with how the band operated. Sorry about that.
