Complicated music preformed by talented musicians = music rarely copied.
That is Yes in a nutshell.
Another early bass hero of mine, Chris Squire really pulled the growl out of the Rickenbacker.
"Roundabout" by Yes is a must.
It really it😜
Hey Elyse. My 1st comment on this channel thanks to you. He does a nice job. I like how he takes notes. I appreciate thoughtfulness. I'll consider subscribing. I did send another sidebar to you awhile ago. You must not be getting notified. Ck it out when you have time.
@@Budman_Buds, will do! Nope, no notifications for any of these "discussion" messages, or likes. Are you getting any yet?
Welcome to commenting here!
@@Budman_Buds, replied back. I think my discussion thing was annoying because it was set to "most popular" instead of "most recent?"
@@RUSHChick, we just learned how to sidebar chat on our own pages, so as not to muck up reactor comment sections. Wonder if all comments are good comments, or better to take them to another page still. I'll ask Teez sometime.
I love an intelligent young person exploring great complex music - with a Beavis and Butthead t-shirt in the background!
Yes is an amazing band, and amazing isn’t really a good enough word...my favorite band for decades. Every song they record, they can perform to perfection onstage. Yes. Positive, spiritual without being religious, and they take your soul on incredible journeys, even after hearing a song a hundred plus times. TY for this reaction!!
Never gets old
Uh Oh! Another deep rabbit hole! Amazing stuff here. Steve Howe (Guitar) & Chris Squire (Bass) RIP , Really shine here. Check out Heart Of The Sunrise, Roundabout ✌
It's an anti-war song - and Chris Squire (RIP) was one of the best rock bass players ever - if not the best
I've been listening to Yes since the '70's and I never realized it was an anti-war song haha.
@@jamesoconnor9027 Crawling out of dirty holes, the morals disappear. If the summer change to winter, yours is no disgrace. I have to admit. I didn't know either until recently. It's pretty poetic for a anti-war song, but that's Yes… It's a caring message to the soldiers.
@@stevedotwood Very poetic. I've listened to songs for years and never even put a whole lot into the lyrics when the music itself keeps me so entertained. Bands/artists like The Talking Heads or Elvis Costello ( and the attrations
@@jamesoconnor9027 I agree. Lyrics are not that important. Usually with Yes, if the words sound right, it's great. Could just as well have been an instrumental.
This is one of the best progressive rock songs ever written. not too long but with just enough musical events going on to satisfy the soul, plus that guitar
The way they bring back the vocal harmonies in different variations throughout the song is simply brilliant.
YES Yes!
Always Yes to Yes! also sidebar
@@Budman_Buds sidebar!
@@elysehfm8797 sidebar. but its getting late so you can leave it wait. 😴
@@Budman_Buds, I will probably wait until tomorrow to reply. Goodnight!
Wish you could have seen them live, around 1975. Beyond great.
So happy you got around to Yes, Close to the Edge is the best song ever created. As always, loving what you do.
Always great hearing from you family! Thank you!!
@@TeezMcGee :)
One of the most musically rich rock songs ever made IMHO, beautifully constructed, an amazing blend of the instruments doing nuanced and often complex parts, but it holds together perfectly as a whole
Until you listen to it more than once, it can have a disjointed feel to it; the unorthodox tempo/time changes work, though, to form a cohesive unit upon second listen. Then you feel the ebb and flow, like the moon on the tides, as properly aligned.
You are really smart with this music stuff lol but I believe you’re right 🙌
Along with the what... 38 key changes? Lol the song rocks so hard
Yes has such a great catalogue. Check out CLOSE TO THE EDGE. Considered by many their best.
Love this one! Off my favorite yes album!
Take a trip into your mind.... Yes always offer you this... they are truly amazing.
All of their music is complex, interesting, and addicting!! I saw them in concert 3 times and they are incredible live!
My favourite bass player in the world is Geddy Lee (Rush). The bass player in Yes is Chris Squire, who is Geddy Less's favourite bass player. Just within the last year or so I read an interview with Geddy and Alex Lifeson (guitar player in Rush) where they describe the one time in their lives when they queued up overnight to get tickets to see Yes in concert at the Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto.
Yes are absolute masters of "Progressive Rock" or simply "Prog". If you liked this, you should check out "I've Seen All Good People" and "Roundabout"
this song is like sweet love being made to my ears
We are living in a musical dark age unfortunately... But this song, the steel guitar, the organ, the baseline... One of my favorite rock songs of all time
"Roundabout" next, and you will never be the same person.
This song is the epitome of prog rock. It takes you on a sonic journey.
Yes! More prog rock!
YES is just legendary
Brilliant band. Bass on this tune is beyond most bass players. RIP Chris Squire
Steve Howe owns this! The first track that intros Steve's incredible guitar work and he takes us to school!!
If you are ready for the red YES pill, dive into Roundabout, South side of the Sky, Heart of the Sunrise, and one of the greatest prog epics of all time, Close to the Edge!!
There is a live video of this band performing many of their songs. Look up the one for Close to the Edge and melt your face.
This song is 50yrs old.
Great reaction, thanks! 👍🤓✌️
You’re appreciated family 🔥
Love this track.. Yes are mental!
Thanks!!! You made an old lady very happy today! New sub and greetings from Illinois!
These guys were completely insane in concert! So freakin good!
Who could say no to yes
I think "America" by Yes is great. (In case you like to listen to more of Yes?) The original song is of course by Simon and Garfunkel, but this "cover" doesn't leave too much of it.
I’m totally down with anything Simon and Garfunkel.
Agree, great cover by Yes.
I’ll take America by Neil Diamond too. Sing it loud and proud. Both America’s😀
@@RUSHChick Then you'll like that this song doesn't have much in common with Simon and Garfunkel's. I would say it's not a cover, it's based (a little) on it.
a lot more to come from these guys...keep going, you wont be disappointed if you stick to their 1970s musiv
Close to the Edge!!!!
Teez, I know you from 311 reactions. So glad you're still on a musical journey.
Your first YES reaction. Good first song.
And that one about the chess game that I have forgotten the name so quickly.
@@RUSHChick I've seen all good people
Yes music is so complex and detailed, you need headphones to hear it all.
One guitarist - Steve Howe. One of the greats. This song showcases his multiple playing techniques.
That bass 🤯
Prog rock at its best. Perfection
YES did quite a few longer songs, like this one, but while they repeated themes and choruses and stretched them out a bit, they always changed them up enough to make you appreciate _once again_ what they were putting together in a way that impresses. I know you'll be trying more YES classics in the future and you will be just impressed once again...and again...and again :)
The big thing was the way they mixed together a dominating Industrial-Melodic bass line+eclectic drumming+a unique vocals sound featuring soaring harmonies with a pop accent. Weird but absolutely beautiful...
Some of my faves (and really, pretty much anything from '71-'77)
Heart of the Sunrise
Starship Trooper
Roundabout
and especially:
Close to the Edge, &
Gates of Delirium
and my all-time #1:
Awaken.
Tell the world, good stuff here.
Yes!
So good.
Unorthodox music = Prog Rock
I know what you were thinking every time you said Damn.
Agree on the long songs. Yes is on of the few bands who put the work in on long songs. Most bands just forget to stop.
sent you a sidebar
@@Budman_Buds, sidebar!
@@Budman_Buds, sidebar.
@@elysehfm8797 I just read your sidebar. I'll send you one in about 45 min or so
@@Budman_Buds, Swingle?
The genius of the Late Chris Squire on bass is on full display.
Enlight of this special occasion I twisted up a fatty to react to your reaction.....YES....is one of my all time favorite bands.
The organ always comes in at the end
Great choice thank you Teez
Roundabout 🙏
You must have good taste in music if you like this! They have lots of other long songs as good as this. Starship Trooper, Roundabout, Heart of the Sunrise to start with. Then the even longer ones, Close to the Edge, The Gates of Delerium, Awaken. Enjoy the ride!
Yes.
Aerosmith is still dreaming they were as good as Yes 😄
Subscribed in hopes you'll see this. Yes is a really progressive band, with a long history, so there's a lot to get through it you're into them.
Many reactors to them tend to do something like you did, then their comments sections fill up with recommendations for Close to the Edge (CttE). I truly believe you'll like them, and CttE, better if you stick to their early hits first, mainly Roundabout (an absolute must), Your Move/All Good People, and the one inexplicably nearly no other reaction video has covered: Long Distance Runaround/The Fish (one definitely leads into the other, ending abruptly without The Fish)
Hit those three before CttE or Awaken. You'll thank me.
And the stuff in the mid 80's has completely different sound and feel, mainly due to the (temporary) change in guitarists. Sad their only #1 hit was from this era
And again - I'll reiterate. DO NOT BOTHER cherry picking this song or that. YOU CHEAT YOURSELF. Take one album and spend time with it, then move to the next. These albums are meant to be devoured whole.
haha Teez:" Hell yeah! I don't think we're done yet either!"
I see the reaction video genre as a introduction to music course. I see the reactors as students of music history and also as mentors to millions of people around the world who are yearning for something new and better than what the media industry is shoving in our faces. When I go to stores and hear new music... I HATE IT. I Leave many places because the music is so bad. BAD. The music of the 60's and 70's is Wild Stuff. Soo experimental and the lyrics too are crazy weird. I Love that!! I miss that. When I was growing up my mom was a zappa fan. She danced with him at the filmore east. We had a poster of frank sitting on a toilet bowl in our bathroom next to the toilet. We sang along to Billy was a mountain (just another Band from LA. ) Those were the days.
There's nothing quite like the sound of a Hammond organ being driven hard and misfiring on two cylinders.
is this your first Yes track? If so great introduction, but so much more to come. This is proto-Yes. Stick with this album for a while before you move to the good stuff. Starship Trooper should be next.
This song reminds me of something that Earth, Wind & Fire might have even done...
Check out Yes - Close to the Edge, live version. You'll be hooked.
Hey, on the same album. Check out "the clap". One of the most amazing ragtime guitar tunes...enjoy
Solid as a rock is a completely different song
Shout out to my Ashford and Simpson people
Singing it now thanks to you! 😜
I am a DieHard yes fan and have been for 50 years. I would appreciate some input into what you think of some of their albums such as open your eyes and talk, I haven't heard heaven and Earth and from what I've heard from others I don't want to. So thank you to anyone who would care to give me some input.
Fan of anti-War songs...this is up there...Gates of Delirium ...stunning!
You should see the lead singer stand next to the bass player. Funny AF.
Normally you close your eyes during a jam. I think you kept them open cause this is so intricate
Finally :)
😎
Songs like this are the reason you DON'T need to put a time limit on your requests
Now listen to this Live from YESSONGS, and be completely blown away. The live version is many levels of magnitude more explosive, compared to the more pristine recording.
They are both separate Masterpieces. All of YESSONGS is levels of magnitude beyond any live performances you have ever heard. Not one Reactor has touched YESSONGS
(Pssst...Hey friend...IMO, it's best to save the Yessongs referral to when these reactors have heard a few of their classics [like CTTE, Sib Kh, Rndbt, STrpr] in the studio versions before moving them toward Yessongs. IMO, the _best_ part of Yessongs is being familiar with and loving the studio versions _and then_ hearing what you love in that "live" context. One man's opinion...)
You need to listen to their most famous song, ROUNDABOUT, which you may recognise from the JoJo’s meme !
Yes is Prog Rock at its best.
Aerosmith you say...! Try "Lord of the Thighs" + "Spaced" The 2 songs are linked...
Hey TEEZ” check out changes.-Super dope” also “it can happen”
Plz react to keep it greasy by frank Zappa. Do the studio version. They play it differently live so that’s why.
It looks like someone's cheating you out of the whole album - that's how you need to listen to this. NOT do a reaction - but just crawl into a REPLAY loop and listen to the whole album for a few days. This was the era was Album Rock was THE thing and for good reason. Fans are only cheating themselves by not giving themselves enough time for entire albums. (By the way, this group performed this entire album - and their others - live, on-stage, doing pretty drop-dead perfect renditions.
When you see their live shows from the '80s into the 2000's, you'll often see only one keyboard player (Rick Wakefield is the most famous/infamous of them) and one guitarist, playing a hollow-body Jazz with pedals. The lead singer would sometimes do acoustic rhythms in those quiet portions, on-stage. The band had some lineup changes from time to time, with the originals coming in and going out, but always with the same lead singer (John Anderson) and the sorely-missed Chris Squire. The lead guitarist left for a vacation period, and the replacement guitarist scored on a couple of hit singles in the late '80s, and then there are performances with both of them - separated by a wide WIDE stage, I might mention, wink wink.
The late Sixties brought out 'unorthodox' especially in keyboards because electronics were being perfected. It'd be another 10 years before those normalized but George Harrison was one of the money-spending leaders for that niche. The Moody Blues had a Moog Synthesizer (which is effectively keys playing tape-loops - hold down the key, the tape loop plays longer) which was fairly new. Then there were Emerson Lake & Palmer, Electric Light Orchestra, King Crimson and YES powering that 'progressive rock' movement that often eschewed guitars entirely, or put them back into support-only roles. This was fairly different because the other side of the Rock Coin was all guitar-centric - think Hendrix, etc. Festival posters will often show a widely divergent band lineup - you could dance to some, trip-out to others. And/or both.
had to be a moog synth,rick wakeman loves moogs,,,,maybe a arp
First!
Dang!
Yes may have perfected the progressive genre.
May have? For my money, they're the undisputed rulers. ;-)
They certainly pushed past King Crimson and Emerson Lake Palmer.
Good God man, you just listened to 10 minutes of Chris Squire and didn’t even mention the BASS.
That's a short Yes song.
All of their best songs are long ones and then you go....what? It's over already?
Neither is yours....
