    So many of the Yes traditionalists bashed the album this song came from. But I think 90215 was a terrific album. When it came out, mainstream music had moved on from its previous embrace of creative and unique offerings to a more generic, formulaic musical style, and thus, the style of music known as pop rock was the sound of the day. Owner of a Lonely Heart was an edgy offering to this genre. I felt Yes transcended their prog beginnings and had established themselves as masters of multiple genres. While they are certainly artists, they are also businessmen, and I think an album that hit more at the mainstream market was really rather brilliant. It still possessed their own unique sound.

    Owner was a very big hit and still gets a lot of radio play. Trevor Horn was the producer on this one, he was the singer on the previous Yes album called Drama (Jon had left yes at that point), but mostly stopped singing and became a very succesful producer for a lot of bands. Horn was very important to fine tuning the album so it would be very commercial. Lots of yes fans were surprised at the big change in sound. The success helped the band stay together and move forward.

    The addition of Trevor Rabin in the 80s made them some of their first pop chart hits. At lot of older Yes fans didn't approve, but they did what they needed to do to survive changing times and tastes. I like some of their 80s songs, particularly Leave It, which proved you didn't have to go normal to be great.

    Another good one: "That, That Is". For "The Revealing Science of God" I like the live version on The Keys to Ascention album. In fact that entire album is filled with live versions of their songs. It amazaes me that they can play this complex music live and make it sound so good. I must have seen them a dozen times in concert. For the environmentalists there a good short one "Don't Kill the Whale". "Onward" is another. In my book they're all good.

    This was the 80s "YES by default" they had broken up after 'Drama' the only album without Jon at that point,(still a great album with a heavier sound)Chris and Alan then started working with a master guitar shredder, singer songwriter, Trevor Rabin, and were intending on calling themselves 'Cinema', but Chris and Jon started chatting, Jon heard the demos and loved the material, sang on most of the songs, then they brought their old former keyboardist Tony Kaye in to the mix and decided it was YES, Lol...
    I was shocked when I first heard it, but over the years, whether it is truly YES or not, 90125 is an awesome album. there would be more twists and turns to their story in the years that followed..

      When they were told the project had changed name and the band were now called Yes, they rotated the logo to describe the 'Y' we now know.

    Please note on your todo list: (if you have the time) "Mind Drive" (1996) and "That, That Is" (1997) from the album Keystudio (2001). These are two songs by Yes, which I count among the "really big ones", but which have not achieved a high level of awareness because of the time and the way they were released.

    The Trevor Rabin era!
    After Steve Howe, their famed guitarist, left for awhile and Trevor was kinda almost reluctant to be seen as their new lead guitarist and intended not to act as a replacement to Howe's presence nor stuck in his shadow.
    Regardless I still think he was a good member to join Yes, especially his work in Yes' Talk album! That's honestly where both Anderson and Rabin shine the most for their lineup at the time by the 90's!

      this was Trevor Rabins band, to be called Cinema, they got Jon Anderson involved and decided , as there were enough original members involved, to call the band Yes again, probably a wise move as the name was established and it would be as good as free publicity, rather than try to promote an un heard of band

    You haven't yet heard "The Ritual". It's another epic long one. Jon sings a line in French "Nous Sommes du Soleil" which means we are of the sun. You can also find it on "Yes Symphonic" on UA-cam, and it is amazing to see how they play it. The entire band is playing drums during the drum solo and it is amazing. I've seen this song performed live about 6 times and it doesn't get old.

    You obviously enjoyed this one, so how about watching their live performance from The Manchester Apollo in 2017. This includes 3 members of the early (but not founding) line-up including Rick Wakeman on keyboards, Trevor Rabin on lead guitar (who also wrote "Owner of a Lonely Heart) and Jon Anderson, the lead vocalist, whose voice seems to have remained unchanged from the early 1980s. Given that he was aged 72 when he gave this performance, his voice and energy is remarkable. Sadly, Chris Squire, the original lead guitarist died in 2015.

    The most controversial album by Yes (prog-rock was dead in the early 80s and so they made discotheque-suitable prog-pop) and at the same time their most successful song ever. "Owner Of A Lonely Heart" is of course very catchy (and not at all as flat), but there are more exciting songs on the album to my liking.

    You mentioned that you’ll be listening to the first track from Topographic Oceans next. Owner of a Lonely Heart is as far away from that musically as you can get Yeswise; Owner obviously sounds very different from the Yes albums you’ve heard so far and it was their only number one US single but it did bring Yes back to the fore after a four year hiatus.
    So, after Close To The Edge how could Yes try to emulate or better it ? Topographic Oceans is a double album with only FOUR songs on it, one 20 minute song per side and for many Yes fans it was a step too far. Jon Anderson’s “spiritual” side which he wrote with guitarist Steve Howe dominates the album and the other group members just added their bits to fill in, so much so, that Rick Wakeman left after the next tour which is why he didn’t play on the Relayer album. You liked the track Awaken which is slow tempo and much of the Topographic album is like that, especially the second track The Revealing. The Third track, The Ancient, is probably their most “weird” track ever with Steve Howe’s guitar taking all centre stage. The Revealing and Ritual, tracks one and four, are the most accessible but you’ll really have to concentrate whilst listening to all these four tracks.
    Jon Anderson says that you should listen to all four tracks in turn to “get it” and not treat the tracks individually.
