The song is 52 years old and I still get chills hearing it. From the best year in rock music: 1971. A masterpiece. Chris Squires' bass playing is mind blowing and Steve Howe's lead guitar is great but it is keyboard master Rick Wakeman's Hammond 3C organ work that is the most memorable for me. The arrangement of this song defies description. Prog rock at its absolute best. One of the handful of pop/rock songs that could be declared the best ever IMO. Next up with Yes for you should be their other early '70s popular prog epics such as: the upbeat and happy I've Seen All Good People, Long Distance Runaround, Starship Trooper and Close to the Edge. They changed their sound drastically for the hugely popular - with others not necessarily hardcore Yes fans - 1982 LP 90125. Owner of a Lonely Heart was the big radio hit but the entire album is fire especially Hold On, Changes, It Can Happen and Leave It. Jon Anderson's voice sounds so good throughout 90125.Guys, please continue to be 'progressive' in your musical reaction pursuits. I love it.

I first learned about Yes until they reformed in '83 with the release of the single Owner of a Lonely Heart. And also Asia. It was many years later until I was able to understand how badass Yes was. Yes can be found in a bunch of bands......their influence on progressive rock is everywhere.

A great Yes song by a super group of the 70's and even the 80's. Their style changed somewhat in the 80's but they still sounded good. A favorite song of mine from the group during the 70's were " Your Move". Don't forget guys, a group that didn't get the recognition they deserved was Captain Beyond. Their album came out in 1972 and the songs to me that were good rock and roll were, " Thousand Days of Yesterdays, " Dancing Madly Backwards" and Raging River of Fear" and I Can't Feel Nothing". You won't be disappointed.

Did the British invent roundabouts? The era of modern roundabouts began in the United Kingdom in 1956 with the construction of the first "yield-at-entry" roundabouts. In 1966, a nationwide yield-at-entry rule launched the modern roundabout revolution. Australia and most other British-influenced countries soon built modern roundabouts. The Magic Roundabout in Swindon, England, is a ring junction constructed in 1972 consisting of five mini-roundabouts arranged in a circle. ... Magic Roundabout (Swindon)

YES are pioneers of the progressive rock style. Their musicianship is of the highest caliber. The mystical melodies and lyrics are grounded by a fierce rhythm section of the strongest bass and drums. The harmonies, time signatures, rhapsodic storytelling, and tight performances will forever embed them at the top of the music landscape as classic. Their era of "modern classical" music is what musicians and music lovers will continue to play and rediscover for many years to come. I seriously doubt that much of the music from this latest era will last at all.

From that lineup there wasn't anyone better than Squire on bass with Bruford on drums. The precision was second to none. Plus both were very creative in the use of their instruments. As you listen to yes look for the tone changes Squire uses in different parts of the song. He used an array of foot pedals and his Rickenbacker bass was "stereo". 2 pickups that could be used independently and run through separate amps.

YES were doing everything a rock band wasn't supposed to do. The rhythm section was churning and hyperactive, fusion jazz on steroids, the bass instead of sitting behind everything was right up in your face, the lead vocals were clean and almost in a male soprano range. The instruments were clear and clean with good separation in the mix, and on top of it all, they were writing and recording complex, epic arrangements that even the most well educated music professor would dive into. Every single thing that a rock band should NEVER do!! LOL...

Yay! Although I wish you had chosen to do Yes in chronological track order with Clap/Starship Trooper, the next tracks from The Yes Album, rather than skipping ahead to Fragile. But, more Yes on the channel is always a good thing.

@15:10, when the drums (Bill Bruford), bass (Chris Squire), keys (Rick Wakeman) and guitar (Steve Howe) drop that insane groove, it may just be the best 1minute 30 seconds in all of recorded music...seriously. I defy anyone to find a more complex yet straight up rockin' jam...those four were absolutely killin' it.

The “fade in” was a piano chord recorded then played backwards. Back in the day when they did the THX logo, we would yell “louder!”
