I am one of those Yes fans who appreciates both their 70s and 80s output. Sure, 90125 ain't full on prog rock, but people shouldn't expect the unreasonable! It's an excellent pop rock album with prog touches, and I love it. 🙃
Absolutely! "Hearts" is perhaps the best track on the album. A soaring track, full of warmth and so...well......heart-felt. The perfect way to bring this masterpiece of an album to a close.
@@saurian11 And “Cinema” leading to “Leave It.” They won a Best Instrumental” Grammy for “Cinema.” They belong together for me - the two songs together were how they started concerts at that time 🙂
@ I thought you had! I do it loads. But “Cinema” and “Leave It” are sooo briliant. Apparently there is a 20-minute version of Cinema, but I can never find it ❤️
When I had the vinyl, always thought the first side was one of the best every recorded. Owner of a lonely heard, Hold on, It can Happen and Changes. Incredible.
@@danielmccann8325I use this track (Changes) to audition sound quality oriented speakers and amplifiers. It really is dynamic and airy. Low noise floor as well.
My 1st concert was 90125 in May of 84. This was the first song of the show. That low note that Tony Kaye hits shook the whole auditorium. Great show with all 90125 songs plus classics from 70s. Starship Trooper finale and Roundabout encore. Perfect show!!!🎉❤😊
Thanks for reacting to this great song. The keyboard player Tony Kaye was one of the original members of Yes. He left the band after completing 'The Yes Album' and was replaced by Rick Wakeman. He rejoined the band when Wakeman left for a few albums.
Hi Guys, this is such a great album. I remember they did a live concert promoting the albums release on tv, and it was such a surprise. I had no idea about this new album, so to see Trevor Rabin take front of stage. It was at first "Where's Jon" ? He was stood at the back. Trevor & Chris front of stage. Chris dominated the stage more than Trevor. He has a much stronger presence. The music from this album live is brilliant. It was actually amazing to see Trevor do the guitar solo to "Owner of a lonely heart" to perfection, using the guitar effects button perfectly timed with the sudden change output exactly like the studio version. The concert ended with "Starship Trooper" where all the scaffolding above began to slowly descend all over the stage, literally stopping on the stage at various angles blocking off everyone on it, restricting their movements so it looked in the end the scaffolding had collapsed all around them. Excellent concert I actually taped on a vhs video tape....and still have. Of course I then bought the album on vinyl and then out came another called " 90125 - Live the Solos" Which is a great album to go along side. They should have released again on cd with both. That would have been awesome. "Changes" is an excellent track and the rest of the album is full of brilliant music. It's a more rock orientated but refreshing change to their sound which was no bad thing at the time as it worked. Byee Jim X
I saw Jon with the Band Geeks in KC this summer…Carl Palmer opened for them! I was in heaven the entire night. I think this era of Yes is what kept the band name alive, to be honest. I think you’d really enjoy checking out the ABWH album (Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman and Howe) - especially “Brother Of Mine.”
I love that you love him and were able to both be in his energy! Seen Yes many times and Jon solo twice here in Seattle. At both solo gigs, Alan White was also in the audience with his wife, sitting with Jon's. Pleasure to shake Alan's hand firmly thrice. Once in a bar after a Sonics game. 😊
The one and only time I saw Yes live was in the early 2000s when they came to San Diego and played at Humphrey’s by the Bay. A great number of kayakers and boat owners parked their vessels right next to the hotel, which is right next to the water. The opening act was Procol Harum. This was an unforgettable summer evening with two bands I grew up listening to.
Like someone else here in the comments section already noted, this album was also my introduction to the band, with "Changes" being my favorite song off the album, and still my favorite Yes song ever, period. Not sure if this has been brought up before, but for this album the band was initially dubbed "Cinema", not "Yes" (long story), and had planned to move their sound into a more commercialized direction. Trivia: "Cinema" was used the title for the album's lone instrumental, and ended up winning Yes their only Grammy award. Super trivial: most people pronounce this album "nine-oh-one-two-five".
90125 was one of the first two albums I ever bought with my own money. It began my love of Yes and led me right down the hole to their entire catalogue. Trevor Horn's production on this album is excellent. There really isn't a bad track on it. I highly recommend listening to, "It Can Happen", and, "City Of Love", from this album as well. Both great tracks.
Hi Nick and Lex, my favorite Yes album, Jon Anderson is the man that can still sing that and any other yes song today. I am a fan of Trevor because of his harder approach and amazing ideas he has for arrangements etc. Top notch music from back then and still is now, enjoy. Thankyou, P.S. I saw the boss lurking in the background, keeping an eye on you two. Cheers.
Every Track from 90125 sounded great in the live arena !! Rabin sang on the Tracks before Jon Anderson Joined the Band again. Trevor Horn the 90125 Record producer was the vocalist on the Drama Album replacing Jon Anderson for the one album try Live Yes from the 1980's or Real Love from The TALK ALBUM IS A GEM Rabin played the older Yes pieces in his own style Chris Squire asked him to put his own spin on the music !! live Starship Trooper from 1984 Show in Germany is amazing with Trevor Rabin on Guitar
Great to see your appreciation for this!! Definitely recommend "It Can Happen" and "Hold On" from this album. The first time I saw Yes was on the Close to the Edge tour in 1973, and most recently John Anderson, Trevor Rabin (RAY-bin), and Rick Wakeman in 2016. An absolutely phenomenal show!! I still love this album as well as 80s and 90s Yes. Also, if you look at the side of a vinyl album cover it will show the artist, the name of the album, and the inventory number designated to that album by the record company. The inventory number of this album was 90125, which the band used as the title.
Hello NicknLex, how are you? this is my favorite YES song, Love will find a way is my second favorite YES song, sorry, I remember this from my youth, I listened to a lot of MTV and the radio as a kid, this was played on the radio a lot, Love this song, Thank you.
It's funny that people have a fixed idea of what Yes sounds like. That varies according to which part of their catalogue you engage with first. I think this album is true prog in that they're continually moving forward and changing. So good
Ufff chicos! este disco lo gasté, además de haberlos disfrutado 2 veces en vivo acá en la ciudad de Buenos Aires.. un lujo que pude darme en mi vida! Qué bueno que lo estén disfrutando! UN abrazo enorme.. a ver cuándo nos visitan! 😄❤
The passage of time has been kinder to this period of YES for me. It was all about Marillion for me at this point of time. Enjoy it more these days. Cheers Nickn Lex. 😍🎵🎵🤘
Been a Long time fan and this album changed my life. Changes resonated with me and gave me strength to leave an abusive relationship and and start over! The tour was great and they sounded incredible! They had Lasers and also had a woman dressed in a white flowing costume that danced around all night -dancing thru the crowd on the floor- with a spotlight on her(Jane?) ❤ Can’t wait til you get thru this album so can just throw it on and give a straight thru listen!! Best way to hear the album.
The last must have Yes album for me. Classic cut along with the songs Hold On, It Can Happen, and Leave It. If you want a harmony song from this album you want Leave It. Most complete song on the album and one you both would really enjoy is Hearts. Great harmonies with Jon and Trevor, great message and just a great song. So glad you got to see Jon Anderson. He still sounds absolutely fantastic. Great reaction 👍🎶❤. More Yes is always welcome. P.S. Just saw King Crimson Beat tour last week. Out of this world good. Keep on rockin power couple.
90125 was originally supposed to come out under the name Cinema. It became a Yes album because so many of the band were Yes. Also, 90125 is not only the title of the album but the label’s catalogue number as well!
When 90125 was published I was 17 years old and this album was my entry to Yes. I really love this album, especially Changes. And I am also hearing the one or the other Rush element.
Ah yes, the cassette tape (and only cassette tape that we had) that accompanied me and my best friend in 1986 when we skipped school for 4 days and took a 1973 Olds 98 on a 10 hour trip from the metro Detroit area to the UP of Michigan. No spare tire, 135,000 mile rust bucket, but one of the best trips as a 17 year old kid. (Oh the stories I could tell). Long story short, we made it, the cassette made it, but the car died right after :)
I'm very pleased you listened to this Nick and Alexia. In my previous comments I have encouraged you to listen to 90125, and now you are! The whole album would be great but if it has to be track by track I would suggest 'It Can Happen', 'Hold On', 'Our Song', 'City Of Love' and the one that will really mess with your pre-conceived idea of Yes, 'Leave It'. I can't wait to see you react to that song! It's a shame for new-ish Yes fans like yourselves that you have to bounce around between albums, eras, decades and line-ups of this great band. At least we could roll with the punches in real time and come to terms with their evolution at our own speed. I'm sure it must be confusing for you at times, for me my life was mapped out according to Yes album releases!
Love watching your videos! 90125 is definitely an album you can do a deep dive with. If you want to do yourselves a favor, you should check out Hearts.
Love the 17 time intro. The rest is pretty good, but it's still a bit of a come down from the promise of the first 45 seconds or so. The other top tracks from this album are Cinema/Leave It (a short instrumental followed by a longer vocal track) and City Of Love, which sounds the least like a Yes track, being based on a simple two note stomp, but it ROCKS.
I so love how, when Jon came in, Lex smiled, and pointed it out, and then her face just melted into this smile, and she said, "I love that man!".......That was perfect! I feel exactly the same way about Jon! ❣ "90125" was the last Yes album I bought in any form. I really DO like that album, despite having no Steve!!! I really loved the way they combined the vocals to include Trevor! Yet, I didn't buy anything else after that. Great reaction!!!!👌
This is one of their greatest songs. Heard them in 1985 do this live! I think people get too hooked on the same sound. Have to have an open mind! Listen to Chris Squire talking about meeting Jimi Hendrix first time. Hilarious!
love will find a way was orginally written to be sung by Stevie Nicks. Alan White liked the track so much he convinced everyone else to include it as a track on album.
Trevor Rabin is an outstanding singer guitarist composer. He wrote most of the Yes material on 90125,Big Gen and Talk. He has done NUMEROUS soundtracks for movies. A great fit for 80's-90's YES
This iteration of the band struck perfectly with the times. The 80s and where music was going, Yes fit perfectly with that current scene. They were at the very top of the scene and it gave the band new life. Their old way would not have made it through that era. This is a great song. Definitely a hidden gem. so deep and emotionally charged. More of a progressive edge on this one. Trevor Rabin definitely shows his written prowess in this one, along with his great vocals. This iteration has more sides with the dual lead vocals of Jon Anderson and Trevor Rabin.
Many people don't know but Trevor Rabin make +25 film scores for example: Death of a Snowman (1976) Fair Game (1995, additional music only) The Glimmer Man (1996) Con Air (1997, with Mark Mancina) Homegrown (1998) Armageddon (1998) Enemy of the State (1998, with Harry Gregson-Williams) Jack Frost (1998) Deep Blue Sea (1999) Whispers: An Elephant's Tale (2000) Gone in 60 Seconds (2000) Remember the Titans (2000) The 6th Day (2000) American Outlaws (2001) Rock Star (2001) The One (2001) Texas Rangers (2001) Bad Company (2002) The Banger Sisters (2003) Kangaroo Jack (2003) Bad Boys II (2003) Torque (2004) Exorcist: The Beginning (2004) National Treasure (2004) Coach Carter (2005) Dominion: Prequel to the Exorcist (2005) The Great Raid (2005) Glory Road (2006) Snakes on a Plane (2006) Gridiron Gang (2006) Flyboys (2006) The Guardian (2006) Hot Rod (2007) National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007) Get Smart (2008) 12 Rounds (2009) Race to Witch Mountain (2009) G-Force (2009) The Sorcerer's Apprentice (2010) I Am Number Four (2011) 5 Days of War (2011) The Movement: One Man Joins an Uprising (2011) Grudge Match (2013) Max (2015) The Misfits (2021, with Lasse Enersen)
That coffee cup is hilarious! Busted out laughing as soon as I saw it! Big Yes fan here. It's important to keep in mind the MTV influence over music of this period. I've "re-bought" a lot of Yes on CD, but it looks like "90125" I just have on vinyl. From "Big Generator", I think I always liked "Shoot High Aim Low".
I’d heard that this Yes album is about their transition from the Progressive sound to the 80s prog new wave sound. I think it works. It’s also called Changes, which makes sense. They adapted from the 70s to the 80s amazingly. I can’t remember who said it, but I thought this was a great album.
This was the first CD I ever bought in 1986...love it. And for something a little different from them I recommend 'friends of Mr Cairo'. It has vocals at the beginning from an old movie of which the title eludes me right now. It's 1.32 in the morning here in Australia!
I am one of those Yes fans who appreciates both their 70s and 80s output. Sure, 90125 ain't full on prog rock, but people shouldn't expect the unreasonable! It's an excellent pop rock album with prog touches, and I love it. 🙃
Me too!!!
Totally agree!
Same here!!
Yes....I even appreciated Big Generator.
"Shoot High, Aim Low"
Ditto
I loved this song from the mid 80’s. All YES songs are 🔥
No matter what decade Yes is Yes. Change is the only constant in life. Yes Yes Yes.
Hearts is a must listen!!
Absolutely! "Hearts" is perhaps the best track on the album. A soaring track, full of warmth and so...well......heart-felt. The perfect way to bring this masterpiece of an album to a close.
Trevor's solos on Hearts are some of the best I've hear. So much emotion and skill.
"Hold On", "It Can Happen", "Leave It", "Our Song", "City of Love", and "Hearts' are all very good songs from the 90125 album!

First concert I attended with my older brother. High as a kite.
My 1st concert was 90125 in May of 84. This was the first song of the show. That low note that Tony Kaye hits shook the whole auditorium. Great show with all 90125 songs plus classics from 70s. Starship Trooper finale and Roundabout encore. Perfect show!!!🎉❤😊

Thanks for reacting to this great song. The keyboard player Tony Kaye was one of the original members of Yes. He left the band after completing 'The Yes Album' and was replaced by Rick Wakeman. He rejoined the band when Wakeman left for a few albums.
He didn't rejoin until 90125
@@bmac1205 You're correct, I believe he left again after the 'Talk' album around 1994.
@@ROSEBILL i think his point was that they actually had Drama with Downes on keyboards before Kaye rejoined for the 80's stretch.
Our Song and Hearts are the best songs on this album, the whole album is fantastic.
"Only such fools, Only such jealous hearts" great line
...only through love changes come. That's the most important part! Lol 😊
That’s the one that gets me too 😊
YES!!
The song Cinema/Leave It on this album ... Kicks it out baby.
Totally. Especially on the 9012Live video. I must watch that again - sensational 😊
"Hearts" is an interesting song, very "prog"...
This is not a song, this is a masterpiece ❤

I had the VHS tape of the 90125 concert. Awesome.
90125 is definitely a favorite cassette tape from my youth! I'll put my vote in for the song "Leave It" to react to next.
+ 1 ! 😀👍
Great tune ❤. Yeah the Band Geeks rock!! Amazingly talented musicians!!
I was fortunate enough to see "Yes" several times in the 70' s and got to see this Album Tour as well. Good show 🤘
The best song on the album. Hold On, and It Can Happen are top notch. Brilliant record.
I saw Jon with the Band Geeks in KC this summer…Carl Palmer opened for them! I was in heaven the entire night.
I think this era of Yes is what kept the band name alive, to be honest. I think you’d really enjoy checking out the ABWH album (Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman and Howe) - especially “Brother Of Mine.”
I love that you love him and were able to both be in his energy! Seen Yes many times and Jon solo twice here in Seattle. At both solo gigs, Alan White was also in the audience with his wife, sitting with Jon's. Pleasure to shake Alan's hand firmly thrice. Once in a bar after a Sonics game. 😊
YES won their only Grammy for the song “ cinema” on this album. It was for best rock instrumental.
I think "Changes" is my all-time favorite from YES. Thank you both for your reaction..!!
"Your heart is inside your head." The words Vangelis said to Jon when he turned down YES when asked to be their keyboard player.
The one and only time I saw Yes live was in the early 2000s when they came to San Diego and played at Humphrey’s by the Bay.
A great number of kayakers and boat owners parked their vessels right next to the hotel, which is right next to the water.
The opening act was Procol Harum. This was an unforgettable summer evening with two bands I grew up listening to.
Got into Yes in 77 but loved the 80`s Yes as well!
They couldn't figure out what to name this album so they used.the last five numbers of the UPC code on the back....
90125
This era of 80s for Yes, Rush, Genesis was mix pop prog rock but very good songs
That also had been when I'd first heard all three of those bands 🙂

LEAVE IT! So amazing.
City of Love & Shoot High aim low are so frikkin INCREDIBLE imo. underrated & often overlooked.
Lead guitar and vocals in verses are Trevor Rabin who also composed some movies soundtracks, such as Armageddon or National Treasure :)
Best band, ever. Period.
Syncopation master class.

Ahhhh...the benefits of having two incredible singers in one band.
As a Yes fan in 1983, I was glad to have any new music. Trevor more than held his own weight.
Yes was done. Most of this was Trevor's material.
Entire album is epic and timeless. Not much else left to be said.
I saw them perform this live in the 80’s at Garden State Arts Center in New Jersey. It sounded great and I really enjoyed it.

Our Song, una de mis favoritas de éste álbum 90125 de YES👍🏻🇸🇻
100% correct about the current YES vs Jon Anderson & The Band Geeks
I love this album! “Changes” is amazing!! Trevor Rabin sings lead on this. Great guitar player, underrated vocalist.
90125 is totally in my top 5 Yes albums. I love it today as much as I did when I first heard it in 1984.
This album is great, but quite different from what you're used to. Check out Leave It, it's a really fun tune!!
Wait until Talk. That album is great. Loved your reaction to Endless Dream.
I bought this tape when it first came out. It’s a solid piece of work. “Leave it” and “City of Love” must listens, great base line in “City of Love”.
Love watching your videos! 90125 is definitely an album you can do a deep dive with. If you want to do yourselves a favor, you should check out Hearts.

You 2 should def check out ABWH's only studio album. The entire thing is beautifully melodic. Released in '89, its a must listen in your YES journey.
This is one of their greatest songs. Heard them in 1985 do this live! I think people get too hooked on the same sound. Have to have an open mind! Listen to Chris Squire talking about meeting Jimi Hendrix first time. Hilarious!
It's a Great album. Only time Yes had two lead singers
This record came out when I was fifteen and the subsequent tour came to my town. This song worked very very well live
Trevor Rabin, the guitarist in this era of Yes is an incredible player. I highly recommend a solo album by him called "Can't Look Away".
love will find a way was orginally written to be sung by Stevie Nicks. Alan White liked the track so much he convinced everyone else to include it as a track on album.
Best song on album imo. 😊 Great idea!
Trevor Rabin is an outstanding singer guitarist composer. He wrote most of the Yes material on 90125,Big Gen and Talk. He has done NUMEROUS soundtracks for movies. A great fit for 80's-90's YES
My first Yes album,I still love it.
This iteration of the band struck perfectly with the times. The 80s and where music was going, Yes fit perfectly with that current scene. They were at the very top of the scene and it gave the band new life. Their old way would not have made it through that era. This is a great song. Definitely a hidden gem. so deep and emotionally charged. More of a progressive edge on this one. Trevor Rabin definitely shows his written prowess in this one, along with his great vocals. This iteration has more sides with the dual lead vocals of Jon Anderson and Trevor Rabin.
The entire album is great. I'm quite fond of Big Generator as well.
Dyno reaction, saw them do this in person, wow, also tx for fixing the camera situation!
Best YES album along with Going for the one. You should check the album with Steve Hackett and Steve Howie together called GTR.
I got them the CD 3 years ago, I believe they did a track, not sure.
90125 is the record company’s release number of the album. Kinda of like is serial number.
One of my faves off this album.
This is my favorite song on 90125

yes rabin found his niche with film scores and elevator music
Our Song is the Prog song here. If you play Cinema know that it’s literally the introduction to Leave It. They both need to be played together.
One of my favourite tracks.
That coffee cup is hilarious! Busted out laughing as soon as I saw it! Big Yes fan here. It's important to keep in mind the MTV influence over music of this period. I've "re-bought" a lot of Yes on CD, but it looks like "90125" I just have on vinyl. From "Big Generator", I think I always liked "Shoot High Aim Low".
I’d heard that this Yes album is about their transition from the Progressive sound to the 80s prog new wave sound. I think it works. It’s also called Changes, which makes sense. They adapted from the 70s to the 80s amazingly. I can’t remember who said it, but I thought this was a great album.
Great song and album! A touch of prog with 80s synths ! The guitar in this track sounds like a Steve Howe gibson type sound!!
This is definitely my favorite song from that album
This is my favorite YES album. I'm a drummer and this is a drum clinic. Just fantastic.
This was the first CD I ever bought in 1986...love it. And for something a little different from them I recommend 'friends of Mr Cairo'. It has vocals at the beginning from an old movie of which the title eludes me right now. It's 1.32 in the morning here in Australia!
Both 90215 and Big Generator made me a Yes fan. Of course I loved the more mainstream older yes but these two albums made me want to search for more.
Great song. Really great.
