Unbroken Sprit - Jon Anderson (with lyrics)

From the 2011 album " Survival and other Stories "

[@JoaoFroes-r7p]

There will NEVER be another vocalist in YES except for Jon!

[@ivalard]

Ｉthink so too.

[@ELPCOTILLION-SD1970]

PRECISELY...YES Without Jon is NO...

[@lucianobianchini9320]

I respect the Yes Drama with Trevor Horn, but totally agree that Jon is the only one Yes voice.

[@enriqueormenovillafuerte5791]

Jon, You Are the One!!!❤❤❤

[@yeswolf1]

Jon IS Yes. He has proven it countless times. This is a truly beautiful song.

[@jamesfrank5438]

Jon is 80 years old this year. It all started for me in 1974 with Close To The Edge, the single best piece of music ever written...YES music will still be listened to 100 years from now.

[@MommyMags50]

One of my favorites! Sitting here crying, listening to this right now. "When the clock runs faster than my life" -- gives me such comfort as I'm at that point in my life "when I knew that I was getting old". I know what Jon was going thru when he wrote this. If he could create something so meaningful and beautiful thru that, I know I also can push thru my pain. My spirit is willing, my body not so much. God Bless you Jon. You are my hero! ✌

[@tonyburton419]

Sorry to read about your health issues.

[@mattleppard1964]

Hits us all hard ❤😢

[@RonnieVendetti]

Such a fantastic writer...singer...poet...we are lucky to have him on this planet...

[@cindyralston3633]

A couple of weeks prior to my 67th birthday on July 6th, we were at the beach with family members. My son surprised me by playing Roundabout on his music-player thingy. Of course, this old lady got up and danced! 😅 Embracing life at every stage - and some things just never change. Thank you, Jon, for this beautiful song.

Ageless voice that will be remembered forever....

It feels cruel to me to know Jon, Howe, Wakeman, and Bruford still walk this planet, yet do not make music together.

Phwoar got megga goose bumps... Jon, Jon oh Jon your voice, lyrics, your very presence says everything, you make my world a peaceful place, why oh why can't THE WORLD be that way too? I've been a huge fan from the early 70's, still am and always will be... there will never ever be another YES! R.I.P. Chris and Alan.😢 👌💕

[@billshepard6984]

I feel the same way. Going see Jon and The Band Geeks 6/20/24 and Yes in September. So thankful for all the great music. My fist show was in Baltimore in 73 or 74. Seen iterations of them too numerous to count over the years.

[@jupiterlegrand4817]

This was tough. Felt like a farewell. "There'll be a time, when the clock runs faster than my life". I cannot imagine this world without The Voice.

[@michaeljones9301]

Remember the release. 2010....after his near death experience. You can hear his voice is frail, not like today, which is better than ever. We all come to terms with time. Thanks Mr. Anderson....fan forever and always.

So many amazing songs over the years, this is becoming my favorite of from him. The lyric and message, his Heart singing, and the syncopated rhythm of this melodic tune. A Masterpiece in my Heart!!!!!!!

Your voice is magic, Jon. You've provided the soundtrack to my life. It's with sadness that I admit my heart misses hearing Chris Squire's voice woven with yours. Together you soared beyond the heavens.

Jon doesn't just write and perform songs, he changes lives. I first met him on November 14, 1972 and I have never heard any music the same way since. He has had an impact on how I think, what I feel, how I treat others, even how I love my pets. I'll remember. He doesn't like to be idolized, so I don't do that, I just recognize how he has impacted and changed my life and I am grateful.

Listening to/reading the words takes me back to the wonderful, carefree days of my youth, and the memories from that time - but no longer having anyone left to share them and reminisce with.

I listen to it every morning at 5:15am. It has become a mantra of sorts. I get the feeling that this song is more deeply personal than most realize. I love its resiliency.
