I’ve been listening to Yes and Jon for 55 years. If that isn’t a miracle of life, I don’t know what t know what is.

[@richardzeiders5496]

Jon Anderson is YES. Wherever he is, wherever he sings, he is YES. Others may bear the name Yes, but we all know it is Jon Anderson that is the embodiment of YES.

[@victorhernanparedeslopez3636]

Wonderfull. Anderson's voice is unique

[@randlerobbertson8792]

When Jon and Vangelis got together to make music, The sun shone, clouds parted, celestial gates magically opened and A little bit of heavens magic dust was sprinkled upon all of us .

[@jennyjanerudd]

One of my favourite songs of all time. His voice, though! Wow

[@chrisrickert8638]

I’m one of only a handful of people to see and hear Jon sing the “sound like a signal from You” at Tait Towers in Lititz Pa. in 1989 July during the ABWH rehearsals. Rick Wakeman provided simple C major root chording with a choral/string patch; my wife and I almost passed out!! lol… just amazing and SUPER RARE. I am blessed not only to have witnessed this along with the several talks Jon and I had over a 5 day period, but also to have had my wife and one year old daughter with me. So many memories; gives me tears as I type. God bless Jon Anderson; “just another” one of Gods messengers 🙏

[@englishgentesq7154]

Absolutely incredible live orchestral version, combined with John Anderson's unique vocals talent of course, of State of Independence. Such energy.

[@guypie3091]

Jon Anderson has blessed us so many years ,no one can sing like this man . some have tried but never will there ever be a voice like Jon Anderson .I am thankful for 40 plus years of his music..

I'm a very long time Yes fan, and I've all heard all of the whining about different band members over time, but I think Jon should re-record all of the Yes songs with this ensemble. They are tremendous; I thought only a few songs brought me to tears ( And you and I, Turn of the century, et al, but this is truly magnificent. He is, and always will be, Yes, though I miss Squire's voice and bass
