Close to the Edge and Awaken are their masterpieces. One hundred years from now they will be remembered like the classical composers are today.
Agreed, those two are their best songs.
It’s been 50 already and thanks to these young people doing reaction videos they are getting a second life.
The Gates of Delirium a dangerously close third
I have listened to them since the 70s. Those are 2 great songs but so are many others. I am fond of Heart of the sunrise.

it is so fun watching a new generation find this music, to bring their own interpretation to the experience, dozens, hopefully hundreds, of years from now there will be new generations enjoying this experience. Peace and Love, Sister.
Yes, Moody Blues, early Genesis, ELO, ELP, Kansas…oh the songs!
You need Yes to take you Close to the Edge…. The beginning of the song will be the sound of running water. You will love it especially don’t forget to do that special thing before hand Peace 🎸☮️❤️
Yes were a great progressive rock band. So much good music. They formed in 1968 when vocaliston Jon Anderson met bass player Chris Squire. Please do more Yes. Just subscribed.
Sadly, your favorite "funky boots", the bassist Chris Squire passed away from cancer just a few years back. He is widely regarded as one of the best bassists in rock music.
TRU DAT!!!!!
baddest biggest bass sound in history
And the founder of YES
An unbelievable player....sadly missed...
folks discovering Yes, and usually they wonder "how did they get the bass to sound like that?".....i love it!!! just happen to be Chris' sound, uniquely his and his alone.
seen em over 10 times , love them and thanks for posting!!!!
Get the YES AlBUM (1971) and it will be a great gift to yourself .
And Fragile.....and Close to the Edge....and Relayer.....and....and....and..... 😀
Yup. The Yes Album and Fragile are two of my favorites.
@@Pixelologist tales from topographic oceans.
I saw ''Yes'' at Madison Square Garden in 1977. My ears are still ringing.
I saw them from the third row at the Chicago Amphitheater. The loudest show I've ever been to. My ears are also still ringing!
YES is a thing. A very different and separate thing. They are their own universe. One of the best bands that’s EVER existed. I’ve seen them live 6 times. With bands like YES and PINK FLOYD, their melodic and sometimes mellow sounding music is not exactly what you get at the live concert. Yes, the songs are what you expect, but the delivery is what catches you off guard. When you hear this music played live by the band at concert level volume with the entire stage show, it a hellava experience! The Both are surprisingly very powerful live. Stuff you would expect from a Harder Rock band. That comes with the territory you know? Like IRON MAIDEN, you know that’s going to be over the top strong. So when a band like YES comes across live with a shitload of power, it kind of takes you aback. Even if you’ve listened to them for years before you saw them live like me. It’s hard to describe, the sheer force of the live show. To say it was impressive is an understatement. Both of those bands I mentioned are excellent live. Some of the best concerts you will ever see. If you’re lucky.
They are one of those bands that make you wonder how these guys got together you know? It’s like a perfect storm. So fucking impressive. England is NOT FAIR!! Ha Ha!
Yes is one of the absolute best...so glad you found them!
Prog doesn't get much better than this! Such stellar musicians.
I started listening to _The Yes Album_ in 1971, when I was 13. The albums released in that year or that I first heard then changed my entire outlook on pop music. It's absolutely fantastic watching a young person listening to that music and getting such enjoyment out of it 50 years later.
I've watched this hundreds of times over the years ... I STILL make those same faces. :)
Yes is always worth your time....Your energy made a great night better in this house....and none of us are misbehaving too badly...but when oh when are you going to summon the courage to lock your headphones around some Stevie Ray Vaughn...Texas Flood...Voodoo Child...Couldn't Stand the Weather...(and if you already have...sorry!)
And listen to the studio version of this number. Mind blowing!
YES....................one of the GREAT progressive bands in rock history.
you have to remember these guys are in their sixties here in this performance
Chris squire , Anderson , Allen , Steve Howe !!!
The best .
So glad you enjoyed 👍🏻😆
So unique this band is !!!
dont forget young Tom on keyboards, doing a grand job
So nice to see a base solo!! These guys have it all Wow!!! Magnificent!!! 👍👍👍😊🌹
With a sound of their own, Yes is one of those recognizable bands that influenced many bands that followed.
Speak to me of summer long winters longer than time can remember ! One of my favorite lines in a long list of favorite lines 😃
Now that you've had a first hit of Yes, no doubt you'll be curious for more. :) To reiterate what others have said/will say, much of Yes's work, especially in the 1971-1975 period, is not just spectacular fun (and they were quite popular at their peak), but also, well...great. Somewhere in their Simon and Garfunkel-meets-Mahavishnu Orchestra-in-London masala they created something absolutely unique and exciting, and some of it is deservedly classed among the great songs in rock history. There are some things before that '71-'75 time and quite a few things after that period that are very good indeed, but their core...the heart of the matter...is found in that era, and perhaps best approached there first. Much cheers!
Their pop/commercial phase late 70s and 80s can safely be skipped. A lot of us were shaking our heads in disbelief at "Owner of a Lonely Heart" and the 90125 album. lol.
Chris Squire "The Greatest" Prog Bassist there will ever be !!! R.I.P
You are correct. Yes is nearly perfect "dark room and headphones music."
I got to see them during the 70s in concert 6 times. Sang along with every song. Clapping with them. I went to alot of concerts, saw lots of bands, but Yes was the best.
Chris Squire pulled the bass forward from the rhythm section and turned it into a lead instrument. Genius. In fact, at times the guitar, keyboards and bass were all being played as lead instruments at the same time without sounding cluttered. Again. Genius.
Chris Squire was the BEST EVER Bass player!!! YES was way before their time! I think you can hear where KANSAS got their Influence...and RUSH!
Saw yes twice and arguably one of the most talented group of musicians ever assembled. Guitarist Trevor Rabin was born with multiple spleens and Alamo at died prior to 90125 album.
Girl. I love how took took me through one of my favourite pieces of music. Thank you sister. Somehow it was more beautiful sharing your joy. Was this really your first time watching/listening to this? I saw this band live when I was seventeen. and many times thereafter. I can only say that they, along with all the other great bands of that era, will never be seen again. Treasure these geniuses and what's left of them on film. Maybe, one day, musicians, song writers, singers will have the freedom to create music like this again. Love from a Grandma in the UK :)
Great selection and I definitely loved your reaction and appreciation of this high level song. Recommend more Yes (And you and I, Awaken) and also Rush (a Canadian progressive rock band). Keep going!!
I was so lucky to see them in the 80s. Listen to to Owner of a lonely heart ❤. Love will find a way. I love watching you react to all the great music I listen to. God bless you.
You connected very well with what I imagine was previously unknown music to you.
It was a pleasure to watch your appreciation.
Chris Squire was a giant of the bass guitar.
see the brian may face melting version of this song done with wakeman. it blows this away!
Glad you dug it. They are the best musicians, as good as it gets. You are right, you probably should enjoy a J before listening to them. That whole tour was with an orchestra, but they weren't featured much on that song. Try Roundabout next, and then if you are ready, some out of this world music on the song Close To the Edge (you will dig it, it has a river theme, etc). Then Awaken and Wonderous Stories, I've Seen All Good People. Much of the lryrics have songs talking about rivers, both as symbolism and literal.
It's 10:00 on a freezing cold night in February of 1974, We're in Philly, parked on the corner, four of us in my '67 Mercury cougar, each with a quart of Schlitz Beer and a pint of potato schnapps, passing back and forth, numerous joints, not saying a word to each other, eyes closed , listening to the "Music".....
My first concert was Yes for their 90124 tour. What an amazing show. Tried to see them again about 8 years ago and none of the original members were there. It was sad.
You can describe what I couldn't 50 years ago. You listen for a million sounds and then that unique voice is even better. Very special band to me. lol and you said it early on in the song; this music wanted us to "Enhance" our experience...and we often did ;)
Oh my honey is now doing YES- I love you 😍
Thank you for bringing my generations music back and your insightful thoughts are so refreshing..
Hey R. R. Beautiful observation and conversation You just can't help but be this multi worldly sort of experience Kinda thing, aye ? Thank heavens!!! R.R. Yes turn of the century is perhaps the most lovely piece of music/song in history. Would oh so love to experience your take.
Yes always were some of the best musicians on the planet. RIP bassist Chris Squire
This is what they called progressive rock. First time hearing this 1968. Saw them in concert three times. Sadly everyone forgets EMERSON LAKE AND PALMER. They were there first. Emerson work closely with Bob Moog who invented the synthesizer. Emerson perfected it. Songs like From the beginning... The Tarkus album... Trilogy.... Are masterpieces. Saw them in concert three times I was blown away. Give them a listen.
Yes continues to gain new fans because their music is timeless!
This is my favorite band! They have so many great songs, try “Roundabout”. Thank You! Your are about to step into the Yes rabbit hole and it is deep! LOL
Jon Anderson was a real life Hobbit, and one of the finest vocalists ever. Female vocalists today wish they possessed his talent. Steve Howe has several chapters dedicated to his craft in the Big Book of Howe to Play Guitar. And Chris Squire on bass. He, and John Entwistle of The Who, have schooled everyone who has picked up a bass guitar since 1969 on how it's done. Anything less is just picking your nose.
Their "Heart of the Sunrise" -- will take you there (from the album Fragile) "Love comes to you, and you follow ... Lose one unto the heart of the sunrise..."
Saw them on the ‘Tales’ tour at Manchester Free Trade Hall in 1974. Still have the original vinyl of Close to the Edge which by a strange twist of fate I got signed by Roger Dean whose evocative artwork closely associated with Yes’ music
Detroit 1977 ... I saw them do this LIVE.. ( as a kid, in 1970s, would at night, lie on floor and listen to them with my vynil record-player between two bookshelf speakers)
I've had the pleasurable experience of seeing live 4 times✌🤘
I saw them in the round in 1978.Incredible show.
Yes music is made to close your eyes and take off.. top ten bands ever
This band has always been so creative
They are a big band with very well known classic songs. Back in the day you could just turn on the radio and there was a good chance of you hearing YES. A super popular band! Top tier easy. I like to recommend the DRAMA album. It’s a stand alone excellent record. Very dynamic and just really, really good. It’s one of my favorite records. Get it and listen to the whole thing from the start. I will give you money if you don’t agree.
You said you liked the bass player. I love him too. If you want something funny, check out when he tells the story of him meeting Jimi Hendrix. It’s hilarious. Just search “Chris Squire meeting Jimi Hendrix”.
Just watched it. This guy is a character haha What an intro to Jimi Hendrix thinking he can't put notes together to being absolutely blown away 🙌🏽
@@RogueRxyce . Aww. Glad you did.
@@RogueRxyce That was the now famous concert, Hendrix’s first in the UK, where Eric Clapton was de-throned as London’s guitar king. Afterwards, Clapton stormed out, saying “I’m going home.... to practice!”.
I take in whole scene... the audience is amazing.
if you ever decide to do a reaction video to Yes's song, Turn of the Century, it will help if you look up the lyrics first, and take some time to read them, and think about them.. it's an amazing "song," because there is NO rhyme to it... it's an amazingly elegant story of a sculptor, who is sculpting a piece of art, based on his wife.. she gets ill, and dies before he can finish the piece.. he becomes depressed, but, over time, decides to complete the piece, based on his memory of his wife.. and, the piece fills him with joy.. imagine that as the basis for a song !!!!!!!!
The world needs to hear Turn of the Century. So beautiful.
Have you heard the Annie Haslam/Steve Howe version.
Such a great song
Always get shivers at the transition from the dark to the light towards the end
Experiencing them live is something that went deeply and has left an everlasting impression. Jon Anderson's persona on stage is that of a puppet master, manifesting all that you hear. The level of true mastery and artistry of each and every member is awe inspiring. Add to that the fact that they so enjoyed doing it. A life spent building a legacy.
thats your first Yes listen ?
You have a whole world of Yes music to catch up on. Let the journey begin
If you are feeling brave,, dive into Close to the Edge..
You're gonna love it...
Thanks for doing YES ! They are amazing ❣️ ! And awesome too see live ! If they ever tour again DO NOT ! pass up the chance to see them! Every one in the band is a master artist! One of their best songs
A perfect example of how those great Prog-Rock groups not only stand the test of time--but are just as good as ever! Long live Yes, ELP, Tull, Moodies, Pink Floyd, and on and on...
The Cure. Just like a dream
Saw this in " The Round Tour" 79/80 incredible.
Steve Howe on guitar an underrated master of the instrument
So psyched to have seen you enjoying this! ❤️ Würm (aka “Nether Street”, a bit that Steve Howe brought to Starship Trooper and Yes from his old band called Bodast), is three chords and the truth. Definitely listen to the studio version on The Yes Album, find Bodast’s “Nether Street” on TH-cam...and for one of the best live versions of Würm ever, listen to the 1978 late-show Wembley performance, which is also on TH-cam.
Their first 2 albums are really nice, but their next 6 albums are the stuff of legend. Prog Rock at its finest.
'Close to the Edge' is their 18 minute masterpiece, that begins with you "down by a river" enjoying the sounds of nature.
YES would go on to compose 10 more epics (music that's 15+ minutes in length) and many pieces of music in the 8-12 minute range, like this one you just listened to, along with many shorter pieces too that are amazing.
I hope you continue down this journey of YES music. It's an adventure that you'll greatly enjoy.
Whatever. Lol!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@jeffschielka7845 Whatever??? LOL
So I guess the algorithm just keeps giving us YES reactions, so we just keep running into each other, LOL
@@Lightmane Stop writing books for comments. Lol!😎
@@Lightmane Happy 4th of July. Go watch or listen to AMERICA. 🇺🇲💥💥💥💥💥💥🇺🇲
@@jeffschielka7845 lol
This is from their 1970 recording "The Yes Album". Back in the day albums really made an impact - not least because bands were being so experimental and had a huge focus on musicality and ability. That's what's so wonderful about so much of prog rock. They weren't afraid to branch out and to create a musical form unlike any we had ever heard. And so many albums truly made an impact on their release because of it. From the delicate, acoustic whimsy of Genesis and "Cinema Show" to the power of ELP's "Fanfare for the Common Man" to the haunting "Starless" by King Crimson. What a time to have lived through. And these albums will still be played in another 50 years time whilst those considered more mainstream and popular will have fallen by the wayside. Punk created a counter movement for disaffected youth, but in rejecting musical complexity and virtuosity it did us no long term favours.
On your time, PLEASE listen to this on the studio version; read the lyrics as well.
Welcome to the world of top musicians
Love watching this but watching today breaks my heart. Drummer Alan White passed away today and bassist Chris Squire passed in 2015. They and the rest of Yes were amazing and to think that two of them have passed
That's right girl! Close your eyes and go for the ride, Headphones help.
You should listen to Yes live in 1973. That concert is the best versions of all their old stuff.
Magnolia Electric co- Farewell transmission.
Try not to cry listening to it.
From Russia with love 🌹
used to trip to these guys back in the day
ugh jealous! 🤣
@@RogueRxyce Ha,ha...Ty dear...they may still be performing...
@RogueRxyce YES, several commenters have given good recommendations to challenge your musical repertoire. Please review them. I suggest you pick at least one song from all their albums created during the 1970's (but also don't stop with just one). Roundabout on the Fragile Album got onto the pop charts and had radio play for a while, but there are SO MANY other great songs.
If you haven't already, listen to the studio version of Starship Trooper. It will take you to a deeper level.
You should go back to the original version in '71 to get a flavor of how it all started. That song and also "Yours Is No Disgrace" from the same album.
Love it! You reacted like I did in 1974!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Ladies and gentlemen Chris Squire and Yes the greatest show on earth.
And we smoked a lot of weed and tripped on the beautiful music 😊
Yes was such a creative band ... as are all the prog rock bands.
You could do a whole reaction channel just listening to prog rock bands.
Thinking of something nice to say as Independence Day fades into memory .....the New York City Macy's fireworks were INCREDIBLE! I've been around a very long time, but this was next level celebration. However.......I would have hired RogueRoyce as MUSICAL DIRECTOR! After a year and a half of suffering, that display was amazing! But.....the music, as usual, sucked butt, lolllll. Next year Rogue, you need to step up ☮️🎇🌹I kind of cheated, I watched a bunch of your reactions while watching the fireworks 😁😃 Thank you Rogue, 🌹
ayyye hahaha next year i'll have NYC contact me about the job lol Thanks for letting me watch the fireworks with you though! 🙌🏽 I missed them over here
I like that idea! Happy 4th of July!
@@deborahbryan3639 Thank you Deborah 🎇☮️🎼🎸🎶🎵
ROUNDABOUT!
..you got it, girl! :)
This song is very beautiful!! almost like you ...💖🧚♀️
You should listen to so many old classics from YES. And you and I, Close to the edge, Wonderous Stories, Turn of the Century, Awaken, The Revealing Science Of God....too many to mention here.
try the studio version some time. It was composed around 1971
I'd recommend the song " Turn of the Century " from the album " Going for the One".very emotional time with a more grounded set of lyrics compared to other Yes tunes.🗿🌴
There is even older great music. The Rite of Spring, Janecek Sinfonietta, Tchaikovsky 4th, Holst The Planets, Ravel Daphnis and Chloe....on and on.
With Yes and Pink Floyd tossed your way, Rush requests should be incoming soon too. As well as requests for quite a few other progressive rock bands I imagine.
Yes is pretty much sensory overload, every time. So much to take in.
Please go to listen to yes symphonic, I'm 62 and still love them like I did in the 70ths
Time to get off the ride
Did you notice the choir sneak in and take their seats behind the band?
I just happened upon your page and I'm so glad I did. I'm not sure if you have explored Pink Floyd but if you want to trip check out Echoes on the Meddle album and yes burn some before. I guarantee a good time will be be had. Love you
well that was epic
Saw this song live in 76 Rick Wakeman on the keys
Chris Squire invented funk
