The lyrics of a chess game as a metaphor for a relationship and one’s life. Jon’s lyrics usually don’t come wrapped with a bow of coherence. However, his use of words to create sounds complementing melody are his trademark, as he has said many times over the yrs. Their body of work is of a quality that’ll stand the test of time.

Some people are better at comprehending sung lyrics than others. I myself struggle a lot with many artists, and when struggling I treat the lyrics as another instrument. I can't both understand and process the difficult-for-me lyrics AND jam to the song, so I let the meaning go. If it's a good song sung well, it will convey the same feeling.

Love their harmonies and how they can handle multiple time signatures at the same time. Phil Collins loved to listen to Yes and bring ideas back to Genesis. Then they too had great harmonies and polyrhythms all over the place. These are the two BEST prog bands by far.

@@mr.snicker-doodles7081 Yes have done live versions of And You And I that surpass the wonderful original studio version, but in my opinion the Yessongs version isn’t one of them. I dislike the overly bombastic opening and far prefer the softer 12 string harmonic intro. Far. In fact, it is one of the most beautiful things they ever did. The Yessongs version is again, imho, one of the weaker spots on an otherwise great set.

It helps if you think of Yes songs as being like Oreo cookies. Double stuffed. The cookie surrounds the lush filling, keeps it all together, makes a whole out of seemingly disparate parts. Some songs are like huge BAGS of Oreos (Close to the Edge). Everything Jon Anderson wrote (with and without Yes) is a divine confection. :)

I think the coolest thing that's happening in the world right now is that people are actually exercising CRITICAL LISTENING again. You guys are to be commended for being two of the best at it. With a good pair of headphones (AKG's perhaps?) and time devoted to it, you are experiencing what folks used to do in the early days of the hi-fi/stereo revolution... really listening to recordings with your ears and minds. God bless you. The rewards for doing this are almost limitless. Check out the What If album by the Dixie Dregs. Another Ken Scott engineering masterpiece. Your souls will be lifted, I promise.

There's two more songs on this album you haven't heard, both of which are shorter songs, both of which are really quite excellent (but don't really fit into YES' list of masterpieces, cuz so short). You might want to react to them both in the same vid, given their shorter length. I absolutely love *A Venture,* a 3-minute song that's melodically beautiful, but at the same time displaying their super musicianship & experimental approach. *The Clap* was YES' way of introducing new virtuoso guitarist Steve Howe to their fan base, demonstrating that there were no guitar skills that he lacked in a fun "live"performance before an audience. Well worth a listen Oh, and don't think you've finished with YES' Uber-Classic Period masterpieces after you've heard The Yes Album, Fragile, & Close To The Edge. There's one more astonishingly good recording of another YES Masterpiece in the form of a Cover (their last) of Paul Simon's *America* which they turned into an encore jam played at the end of concerts. Though recorded at that time, it never appeared on any studio album, but only on a compilation album some years later. Filled to the brim with Squire/Bruford ear candy. (One more thing, don't do a comparison reaction to 1st the Paul Simon version & then YES' version. They are two completely different things)

This is on the Almost Famous movie's incredible soundtrack. You guys should watch it on your other channel. It's a movie, not a documentary, about the real life of a 15 yr old Rolling Stone music reporter in the 70s, who later became a film director, Cameron Crowe. He wrote this about his life following bands on the road as a teen, including The Allman Brothers, at 16 yrs old! Great music, hilarious and a great look into the 70s rock scene & the people who followed them around. He also directed Jerry McGuire, among others.

A huge memory song for me. Not only that my older brother had this album and played it 'til the needle wore through the grooves, but wonderful memories of being 12 and starting my first job in a club (I had a full beard by this age) that hosted live bands. One of the top groups that played with us many times was a band called Bosco. This is one of the songs in their deep repertoire and damned if they didn't play it as good as the original. Bosco was a hugely popular Seattle band that made the normal tour across the border into Canada, as well as down the west coast. They were not only seriously good, they were really nice. Their bass player, Dan, was a good friend and married another friend of the family here in Vancouver. Dan grew up on the same street as Jimi Hendrix and Jimi's dad had given him several of his son's stage outfits which he happily wore on gigs. Add to it that he was almost a spitting image of Jimi, who could play his bass behind his head as well as playing the theramin, and you have a very entertaining band. That they never made it big is another story but Bosco certainly deserved it. Played by either Bosco or Yes, Your Move and I've Seen All Good People remains a favourite of mine 50 years later. ♥
