TEMPUS FUGIT
Born in the night
She would run like a leopard
That freaks at the sight
Of a mind close beside herself
And the nearer I came
How the country would change
She was using the landscape
To hide herself.
More in the mind
Than the body this feeling
A sense at the end
Of a circular line
That is drawn at an angle
I see when I'm with you
To navigate waters and finally answer to-yes.
If you were there you would want to be near me
Innocence, you could hold all the materials
And though nothing would really be living
It would shock Your fall into landing light
In the north sky time flies fast to the morning
The cold of the dawn it meant nothing to us
You were keeping your best situation
An answer to-yes
(Yes, Yes) And the moment I see you
(Yes, Yes) It's so good to be near you
(Yes, Yes) And the feeling you give me
(Yes, Yes) Makes me want to be with you
(Yes, Yes) From the moment you tell me - yes
If you could see all the roads I have travelled
Towards some unusable last equilibrium
Run like an athlete and die like a dead beaten speed-freak
An answer to all of your answers to-yes
In the north sky time flies faster than morning
The cold of the dawn it meant nothing to us
You were keeping your best situation
An answer to Yes
(Yes, Yes) And the moment I see you
(Yes, Yes) It's so good to be near you
(Yes, Yes) And the feeling you give me
(Yes, Yes) Makes me want to be with you
(Yes, Yes) If we wait for an answer
(Yes, Yes) Will the silence be broken
(Yes, Yes) Should we wait for an answer
(Yes, Yes) Do we leave it unspoken
(Yes Yes Yes Yes . . .)

Drama is the tenth studio album by British rock band Yes. It is the first Yes album without vocalist Jon Anderson. In early 1980, after rehearsing music for the follow-up to the tepidly-received Tormato, both Anderson and keyboardist Rick Wakeman departed the band over creative and financial differences.
It was the only album without Anderson and with keyboardist Geoff Downes before Fly From Here in 2011, and is the only Yes album with Trevor Horn as lead vocalist; however he was later involved as producer in 90125 and Fly From Here. It is also Yes last album before the band disbanded in 1981, before reforming in 1982.

@@karimnedal9714 I was 11 when i first heard it and my buddy's brother-in-law had a cherry red Rickenbacker for sale. I tried to sell everthing I owned at the time to buy it because of just that one song. I just didn't have the money. Never got one and became a mechanic instead. Later I was working at a m/c club racing track near LA and my rider, David DeLeon, was a professional bassist. Played on "The Blues Brothers" movie soundtrack amd also was the only guy to get credit playing on a Stanley Clarke album. Walter Becker used his base to record "Aja" too. We used to crank "Fragile" on the way to the track all the time. Guess I wasn't meant to be a musician.

@@todd9774 I think this line-up and album inspired a lot of people. Asia obviously stemmed from it and every pop friendly progressive group after (Marillion, or possibly the more mains stream direction of bands like Kansas or Rush) and/or progressive metal grow out of this moment. - Dream Theater, Queensryche, Fates Warning, Frost* - this was a game changer for quite a few. This and Genesis DUKE happening about the same time really steered the ship a bit.

I liked Drama pretty well when it was released but even more now. Newer prog is very advanced as far as technical playing but the melodic stuff in old prog is still unmatched imhop. The many Yes records and tours I've bought/seen doesn't really compensate for the value of a lifetime worth of music enjoyment I've experienced with this band, and I still get into a deep meditative state that takes five minutes to come out of when I get the head phones out and listen to something like The Remembering. Greatest of thanks to the members of Yes!.

I see not enough love for Trevor Horn in here. He was involved a lot in the writing process of this album and sings pretty well in my opinion. He brings his own personality in here. And it works. I'm honestly not that bothered that Anderson is not on here. After the bore which was Tormato especially. This album beats that fully.
@scottanthonyweidner8692 3 жыл бұрын
It is criminal how there are some Yes fans running around who get indignant when other fans say that Drama is better than Tormato. While everyone's entitled to their own opinion, of course Drama is better. :-p
@nickavenoso7851 2 жыл бұрын
I do love Tormato. It’s one of my favorites. I love Drama more though. I just think that the fans at the time wanted only Anderson and Wakeman and didn’t accept the change. I do respect Horn for not trying to be Anderson. I just think singing in that high of a register for him strained his voice. Chris really was the one who persuaded him to do it.

I used to be obsessed with this song and I can't remember how many times I've watched this. I would still prefer the old lineup (Anderson, Bruford, Howe, Wakeman, Chris) but this song is a masterpiece on itself. I don't know why I love this so much but I feel like Drama worked out a little. Before I was a Yes fan, I thought this was the original lineup and I loved it. It was only later that I found out that I was completely wrong and I found the absolute best songs like Roundabout, Close to the Edge, Awaken, Yours is no Disgrace, Starship Trooper, America, etc. However, I would say, forget about the old lineup for two seconds and appreciate this.

This whole album was quite ahead of its time and probably laid the foundation of what modern prog developed into. I'm a Yes purist and believe that without Jon it's not the same, but this album was very inspired and remains one of my favorite listens to this day. Very clear that it was Chris and Alan's album. The rhythm section work on this album is next level even for these guys,
