These words spring into my mind often. I didn't know what they meant when I was younger and listened to Yes, partially because I was not just surrounded by myself, I was also full of myself. I was covered in myself and clothed in myself and swimming through a sea myself only to get to an island of myself, alone on a planet of myself, spinning through a universe of myself.

also, can i just say, the anderson-ponty band album better late than never is way better than two dudes in their 70s have any right to be, and is kind of a tonic for the wretched heaven & earth?

First time I'm seeing footage of them play live - funny to see Anderson as a young man when I've always pictured him (just from his voice) so much older. And Howe like a wraith.

Man I decided to give Going for the One another chance after seeing that, and I just reached the point where it really started to give me a headache, which, it turns out, is about 4 minutes into Awaken.

Had a dream that I was using some kind of remote-control device to change a convenience store's LED-light sign to read "TELL THE MOONDOG TELL THE MARCH HARE" in scrolling text, but the store's proprietor yelled at me before I could succeed.

really looking forward to an AWR album (though why not Wakeman Anderson & Rabin or Rabin Anderson & Rabin . . . WAR / RAW versus YES!). the collaboration jon a just did with roine stolt (kaipa / flower kings (!) / transatlantic (!!)) can err on the side of saccharine sometimes but is WAAAAAAY better than heaven & earth imho. there are some old school topographic vibes for sure

Just had a listen to some ARW, and like, damn Jon Anderson sounds good. I'll take Howe over Rabin all day (though Howe has been sounding not so hot lately...) but Anderson is just killing it, even sloppy old Rick Wakeman sounds better than Downes, and I like Downes a lot. I'm probably the biggest Drama stan on this board but still I gotta say, ARW pretty much blows Yes out of the water
― erudite beach boys fan (sheesh), Thursday, 13 October 2016 05:57 (seven years ago) link
of course it doesn't help that Chris Squire is gone, still such a sad end to things. oftentimes I feel like "Fish out of Water" is the best Yes record

Definitely go. I'd be there if it was an option. Also bassist Lee Pomeroy was great when he played with Hackett on the Genesis Revisited Tour. Sounds pretty good here too.

oh that's right, that was him. hackett's band was excellent (except for nad sylvan who is annoying)

wow that was surprisingly excellent
cant believe Jon is like 70 now and still sounds like that

So, have you guys noticed this thing where the intro for 'Roundabout' is being used in meme-esque video clips where some sort of collision or confrontation is imminent. Except, right when the collision/whatever is going to happen, the video freezes just as the whole band joins in and 'Roundabout' begins, with a "To be continued" text somewhere on the screen. And that's it.
Where does this come from? I find it equally intriguing and hilarious that 'Roundabout' has found its way into "meme culture" in such a random way. And I find that every time someone uses it in one of their videos, the funnier it gets for me.
