Although I don't know much about Clean and APL - I definitely agree with Forth, Smalltalk and LISP as being very elegant in their own three unique ways.

I am trying to combine aspects of those three in Spry (sprylang.org) creating a homoiconic (LISP), DSL friendly (Forth & Rebol) and natural smooth OO (Smalltalk) language.

But if you are simply looking for an existing well defined language (and not interested in helping creating one) - then I would probably point at CLOS (although I personally love Smalltalk). But... the future? <shamelessplug>Spry :)</shamelessplug>

The goal is to create a better language.
