The Ice Bridge
(Jon Davison/Geoff Downes)
My Aleph Music ( ASCAP ) / White Knight Publishing LTD
a. Eyes East b. Race Against Time c. Interaction
a. Eyes East
Those that have lived before
They breathe and walk through us
A course relayed
Round our sacred fires
That light up these hillsides
At dawn we shall begin
With fear of extinction
We’re pushed to the edge of the ice
Instinctive direction
X2a drive to survive
All eyes to the east
All eyes to the east
In a vision
Snowflower Elder crossed
He has seen
Snowflower Elder
He has walked forest green
All eyes to the east
Stand tribe to tribe
For we are the lords of the future
True pillars of life
And if we’re to arrive
Through such desperate times
We must stand unified
Traces of ancestral faces
Project on a blizzard torn sky
In a game of do or die
Fly clear with the falcon
Perceive through the eagle’s eye
This is exponential ancient overdrive
No turning back
We must cross the Ice Bridge
Onward to sunrise
In a race against time
b. Race Against Time
All eyes to the east
In a vision
Snowflower Elder crossed
All eyes to the east
In a vision
Snowflower Elder walked
Lands of green
c. Interaction

Steve Howe: Gibson J15 acoustic, Variax Sitar Guitar, Gibson Les Paul Roland, Fender Electric mandolin

If you don't have a Subwoofer you will not hear the real deep bass that this song has.( 24-28Hz)
It will send chills up your spine. Absolutely awesome song for bass lovers. Can't stop listening to it.
Thanks! Followed your advise. My Sony sub showed me how right you were:):):)
I was just grooving out pretty hard to it.
I think Chris would have approved.
This is magnificient record. From YES. And it is a modern record, it is 2021. And it is so amazing. I watched this again and again. This kind of records are collest! This is a musical quest! So melodical, so comlex and so like a quest to a new something. Exponential. Yes, right word. YES - it is EXP music. Music with Exponentatial. Race against time. Science and knowledge. Synthesizers and wonderful singing. Full of images and deep musical landscape. This is YES!!!! Y E S!
Well, after listening to their first song release and video off their new album, I have to say that I like it. The band is in top form, it stays true to progressive rock and Yes. Looking forward to hearing more. I will be buying this album. I have been a Yes fan since 1971 and I attended my first Yes concert at the age of 15 in 1975. What is that, like 100 years ago or something? I am aware of all the personnel changes and could not care less. I am a fan. All are talented.
You are doing the right things. Keep on listen the music. It is race against time. Time has no meaning. I start to listen YES since... this SUMMER.
absolutely love this song.. gets more emphatic with every play 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yes, absolutely beautiful! Love this song!
Absolutely the sign of a great tune, the more you hear it the better it gets.
Yes and rush bro are the best bands since the beginning of time game over
Thanks I speak the truth led zeppelin on bottom. Cool bro
I know everything about music from head to toe this music is my style thanks
Cant' remember the last time I took such an instant liking to a new Yes track. Can't wait to hear the album.
Yeah.. totally!!!
How this band through the years,Changes can make such a Great music....UNBELIEVABLE!!!!Total RESPECT....THANKS FOR THE MUSIC
Very powerful Yes lineup delivering new & exciting music. Steve sounds as great as ever & his ongoing passion to remain creative is very evident. People can say what they want about Steve’s new Yes, but the music speaks for itself.
The more I listen to this, the better it gets. Love it.
Applies to all Yes songs.
That’s been my experience with prog music in general
The interplay between the keys and guitar in the second half of the song is terrific.
Yeah..... kinda Asia-esque keys and guitar towards the end.
funny you say that, i like it but my main nitpick is i wanted more interplay between guitar and keys, a bit too much taking turns. my other would be like to see a little more variety and creativity from billy, as his mentor almost always showed. but big step up from h and e!
The grooving bass in that section is the best part. Reminds me of the second half of "Owner of a Lonely Heart"
It sounds like they played a couple bars of music then ctrl-c ctrl-v.
@@frankmarsh1159 A very nice job by Billy. I hope he is playing Chris's bass!
🎶 The Ice Bridge 🎶 Thanks Yes For Such An Excellent
& Fantastic Track. 🎶 Looking Foward The New Album 🎶
🎤🎹🎸🥁🎸🎼 🎤🎹🎸🥁🎸🎼🎤🎹🎸🥁🎸🎼
I have to be honest, I had low expectations for this, but it's way better than I thought it would be.. A big plus is Geoff Downes is playing in his comfort zone again rather than trying to emulate Wakeman and Moraz.
And emulate to Francis Monkman Too !!!
I prefer this to many old Yes songs ...great and unexpected performance!
Agree … I was quite harsh with my criticism when I heard DTK … this is proper Prog … Geoff and Billy are playing very well 🙂 all are sounding very solid!
Hello Graham
Yup. HE is allowed to leave his style to the music. IT's like Asia meets ABWH, which is great, because they shouldnt be making 70's music.
They have been my band of choice since the release of CTTE and IMHO, GFTO is their zenith. I've rolled with all the lineup changes since with an open mind/ear and I'm grateful for this band's longevity. In spite of multiple listenings, however, I struggle to appreciate or enjoy Heaven and Earth. THIS tune is encouraging! Billy's not Chris, granted, but he's been a legit Yesman for quite a long time and in my view, it shows. As of today, I am more optimistic of their Future (Times)!
Between the eternity and eternity,forever Yes ,the most greatest wonderful band.
Waited long enough for a 70s - 80s vibe from any band. And this song really brings me a ton of this feeiling! I don't care if there is complexity or old members missing in Yes. My ears are satisfied by what they are listening, and that is all!
@and321now or maybe the Boeing in your photo took your ears👂👂 away! 😏
Not heavyhowe guitars ethereal go8ng for the one
I'm encouraged by Billy Sherwood's playing especially with this piece. Chris' influence is continuing on. This is a great album, to my ears. Hope for the future.
Best thing released under the Yes name for a long, long time.
I agree with your statement because it's worded in such a way that it doesn't say it's better than Invention of Knowledge
Isn't this Asia?
I agree that YES is almost an institution like the London Philharmonic. It should be preserved and nurtured as close as can be. Close to the edge.
I miss the Anderson, Squire harmonies. But a very beautiful piece. I agree with all of the comments! 👍
I must admit. This has recaptured the essence of YES
Anderson, Squire and Howe harmonies. Steve and Chris had/have different, but similarly off key vocals.
Me toooo !!!!!
Agree, Sherwood seems to be mixed right down, whereas Squire was prominent in his vocal support.
I agree but it sounds very YES-ish :)
I am listening while on a small raft in the middle of a lake somewhere in Mexico during a storm at midnight and I like it.
Watch Out For Those Icebergs! :O)
Better than drowning i guess
Are you still on the raft?
Fantastic ! The original spirit of Yes is still there, whathever the changes in the original crue ! Something elevating and organic, and brightness
Well, I can't think of a better way than to open a Friday morning that to listen to new Yes! Wow!
Three Musketeers hear!!!
Gnoware U R ~ It is Always East to Eden ~ The Garden of Delight!
Take Aleph and the Rite Cross of the King on Tour.
Me too this is awesome, i like it very much
This music is made to hear at the morning! 🤩🌻
Beautiful composition. RIP Chris Squire & Alan White.
Before he died, Christopher Squire said he wanted to see Yes continue on "in perpetuity" with a continually changing lineup (he compared it to a philharmonic orchestra formed decades ago, while it has different performers, it's still the "Philadelphia Philharmonic Orchestra," for example.) This is what we're seeing here. Downs has such different tastes from Wakeman, but he does show some Wakeman-esque flashes as he and Howe trade licks in this number. And no offense intended at all to Billy Sherwood, but nobody can equal Chris Squire's uncanny ability to bring a piece of music together. It IS very nice to hear Steve Howe can still bring it. I'm looking forward to hearing the whole thing to see where this piece fits.
Wakeman said as much in an interview, back in c. 1990.
Rick Wakeman envisioned the same thing in the Union video.
@@lenpey yup, in yes years he said that.
Squire still lives in another dimension
Sherwood is a guitarist-keyboardist who can also play great bass
Such an epic song, I don't care who played on it that didn't play on something else! Just an absolute epic JAM!
"This Is Exponential Ancient Overdrive."
Really liking this New Yes Song in 2021!
Yes Forever ❤
Geoff Downes with an E.L.P Powell nod. Of Touch and Go in the first few bars.
a nod ??, he flat out stole it !!
@@danabullerwell8164 He stole a Francis Monkman song
@@stevegrant4325 not true - Geoff wrote this theme in 1977
@@stevegrant4325 No...sounds like Geoff simply reused a keyboard section he wrote & sold to library music in 1977, which was tapped into by Monkman in 1978 and incorporated into the "End of an Era" section of Energism. Stylistically, the keyboard section in question sounds 100% Downes to my ears. I've noticed that people have pointed out how Monkman also lifted a section from Vangelis for his Energism soundtrack album as well, likely also from library music bits. Monkman has publicly stated in an interview that he composed Energism in 2 days. Apparently, when you are purchasing sections of pre-written music, it's easier to generate compositions at a more hasty speed. I could be wrong, but I doubt there were any ice bridges illegally crossed by anyone. Yet, for me the details won't effect how much I continue to dig The Ice Bridge!
@@stevegrant4325 No, he didn't. Geoff wrote the keyboard riff back in '77
I love this !!! Singing about being UNIFIED.
This is exactly what we all need right now.
Love this! Awesome new music from one of my favourite bands. Yes!
This just grows on you
Also a nod to South side of the sky with the keyboard, lead guitar duel at the end. Like it
South side of the sky. What a masterpiece...miss that YES era...
I would say that it’s a tribute to Yes music as a whole because guitar and keyboard duels would happen all the time onstage, south side, Siberian, heart of the sunrise, starship trooper it’s honestly really great
Great song in my opinion. YES will endure and continue. I have high Hope's in Yes!!!
Thanks for the new album.
If not one of the greatest if not the greatest mike digiovanni just like rush now just play who's the master brother 🥶
glad to see one of my fav prog bands making a new album in these dark days... yes put a light in front of us, to see the way for a new beggining
Love it! The very first YES release from the first album with no original members. And I am digging it....it is undeniably YES! The Quest is the first Official YES album without Chris Squire on bass. Well done, Billy Sherwood! Chris knew what he was doing when he placed you in his shoes. Nice keyboard work from Geoff Downes (who I think has now been with YES more consecutive years than any other YES keyboard player). Hats off to "the new guy" Jon Davison, filling a nearly impossible role on lead vocals. Alan White was once "the new guy" but now has been with YES longer than any other member. His arthritic back prevents him from being able to play full live concerts, but he can still perform in the studio. Yet, it is the amazing Steve Howe who is clearly now the leader of the band & "keeper of the flame." For the moment.
YES have now officially crossed over The Ice Bridge from past to present...
Yep fanboy.
These guys are so inspiring. Never stop making music.
Like The Rolling Stones of prog rock
They should stop stealing music too. This is a direct rip off of a Francis Monkman song, The Dawn Of Man.
@@PHDWhom At least they could have _rearranged_ some of it, but it's the same song, note for note. I'd say how the mighty have fallen, but Yes died June 27, 2015. These guys don't even deserve the label tribute band at this point.
@@PHDWhom I think you're getting it wrong. Geoff Downes contributed jingles and sections of keyboard playing to library music in 1977 & Monkman legally tapped into it and incorporated it into his End of an Era piece. It's interesting to note that Monkman has also been accused of plagiarizing Vangelis on this same Energism soundtrack album. In reality, I don't think there was any plagiarism, but rather legal use of bits owned by that record label.
@@eugenesanders3094 its not original... Its Just and old song With lyrics and mixed samples so No.. I love YES but they dont need to do this
Amazing! I'm getting back into Yes. I only had their 70s stuff up to this point but I've bought 90125, Big Generator and The Ladder which totally blew me away. I also love this and will probably buy it soon. Steve Howe is the best guitarist ever.
Great song. I think is the best song of the post-Anderson years.
I've got goosebumps!
Y💖E💖S💖
not sure about goosebumps,, your probably in the early stages of Psoriasis
Goosebumps, no doubt!!
@@danabullerwell8164
How's your wart problem doing?
Get well soon...
I'll be checking out the album for sure after hearing this.
Rare Geoff Downes solo chops in second half. Nice.
Great song guys. Billy Sheerwood, congrats. Amazing Bassline.
Loving this! Long live YES!
Magical music. Thanks once again, YES, Juano, Billy, Jay, Alan, Steve, and Geoff!
Wow..was at their early gigs in London & Yes Album 🤯...journey still continues & I still can rock out to YES! 🎸😎
This is truly Yes. Seen several times. Favorite band of mine. All there concerts were great. Favorite show Close to Edge tour. Hope they tour with this album
The return of the giant Yes... wonderful work! best lyrics, clear sound, deep atmospheres... I love it! wait anxious for the new album!
YES - but .........
This is very well written, much much better than the last album.
It's stolen exactly note for note from the Invasion UFO theme by Francis Monkman. It's not even subtle.
Very well written... by someone else, and stolen by Yes.
@@polygondwanaland8390 They're removing comments about plagiarism as fast as they go up. This isn't like Alan Parsons & Lady Antebellum "sounds a lot like" it's a direct rip. They didn't even bother changing the arrangements. Heart breaking. Loved Yes since the early 70's, but I'm done. Chris is rolling in his grave.
@@slidetek Removing accusations is an admission of guilt imo
@@slidetek I think it was the other way around. Geoff contributed jingles and sections of keyboard playing to library music in 1977 & Monkman legally tapped into it and incorporated it into his End of an Era piece. It's interesting to note that Monkman has also been accused of plagiarizing Vangelis on this same Energism soundtrack album. In reality, I don't think there was any plagiarism but rather legal use of bits owned by that record label.
I was very sorry about the Francis Monkman issue, but geoff downes clarified everything on Twitter and finally it is a great and original song by the greatest band in history, YES FOREVER
He clarified by admitting that this song is a cover, right? Because there is no other way to do it.
@@evandrocg5736 he is sharing writing credits. He didn’t intentionally cover the song because he believed it was his. It was on a tape reel from 1977 that contained a bunch of his library songs.
@@evandrocg5736 No, because the melody and lyrics are new. Davison wrote those. They are over a basic chordal and rhythmic pattern than Monkman is getting credit for, but it's not a cover. It's more like when rappers take an existing song and then rap over it.
@@parableman5527 desperate times.....
@@parableman5527 , as long as Monkman has been credited for the melody, there is no problem.
What a great song. Amazing performance of all the musicians. Proud of this moment of Yes.
It's a RIP off ua-cam.com/video/fXCUF_nvutg/v-deo.html
What is missing here, is the second vocal voice which was always Squire duty.
Haven't researched it, not sure how to do so, but I'm hearing a dual harmony in most of the vocals, and suspect Sherwood is providing the harmony. He has a fine voice.
Also missing is songwriting credit to Francis Monkman, who wrote and recorded the musical part of this in 1978. So “Yes” are resorting to stealing or licensing Library Music now?
Totally agree
@@PHDWhom geoff wrote this in 77. Nice try tho.
@@texmire if he did, then yeah, it’s not a problem. But where’s the proof?
O YES é praticamente uma instituição dedicada a boa música, independente de estilos ou gostos.
True, verdade, verdad
Excellent! The song is very interesting, unexpected, and adventurous. I feel like I am about to embark on, well, a quest. I really like the lyrics, vocals, and vocal melodies, as well as the extensive use of keyboards and long instrumental passages. The soloing is superb. The main guitar melody has a medieval feel that fits nicely with the overall theme and gives it a very triumphant vibe. I can’t wait to see where the album goes from here!
The message of the song is deeper and clear.
We are the Lords of the future …
You must lead a very sheltered life. Take some shrooms and listen to a Hawkwind album or something... Jeez bro...
...or flies from here?
Not all can cross this bridge 💚
Best yes song since lift me up
Such excellent artwork by Roger Dean. Beautiful visuals. Such a great opener to what, I’m sure, will be a great album.
Just bought this. I absolutely love this song and the whole album.
One of my favorite bands and guitarist. Go Steve Howe!!!!!
I have crossed this new ice bridge 5 times already. Appeared out of nowhere.
No matter what I feel about their newer stuff, I will always be excited for a new Yes album
Much better than Heaven & Earth. Still wish they could write better vocal melodies though. Anyone catch the little nod to ELP in the intro?
That's about it. This has got a much better sound, it's musically more interesting than Heaven and Earth which was poor. I suspect Sherwood's work principles and energy had a lot to do with the improvement. But Davison has got a pretty voice that has none of the strength that Anderson had, it's not captivating, Anderson always shaped the music and was at its centre, here the vocals are dressing on top of the music .This lacks the multiple vocal parts that make Yes music, Those who could listen to Heaven and Earth will likely love this.
Touch and Go!!
Yes, it sounds a little bit like Touch and Go on the Emerson, Lake and Powell album... or Fanfare for the Common Man On works.
Big fan of Yes up untill Magnification. Davison voice seem a bit stronger but for me it lacks melody and has no real hook or point to the music if that makes any sense. Maybe its time to rebrand and come back as something else to avoid compared to the old Yes. This did nothing for me sadly.
@@russelltipping1 same
Yes ? Yes !
Thanks to Yes for this great new song, the band performs fantastic on all levels, Jon Davison is a such a talented singer. I'm really looking forward to the new album!
I haven't explore all of Yes recent work but this sounds... interesting. Looking forward for the album
Wonderful song - the mixing is great too
Yes greatness♥️
This is the strongest post Squire (RIP) and Anderson Yes track I've heard so far. Steve and Geoff are bringing it and Alan's drumming is on point. Sherwood's bass is solid, if underwhelming, and Davidson's vocals are what they are.
I do miss the esoteric "sound painting" Jon Anderson infused in Yes, but I don't expect that from anyone but J.A.
Definitely looking forward to hearing the rest of this album.
Yeah it’s a shame that it’s an appropriated song. Not one original note in the entire thing. They’re asking for a lawsuit.
@@magicalmystery1964 all songs use the same notes. You are mistaken, and writing nonsense. Name the original works you think this is stolen from.
@@jaychip1 dont worry its been sorted out, Downes accidentally used the foundation from a Francis Monkman tape back in 1979/80 he thought was his, Monkman has a credit on the song now. The Ice Birdge itself is much more developed than the original demo of course anyway. As a Yes song it works great.
I don't think there were many tracks post-Squire. Surprisingly, there is some resemblance with "To The Moment" - song by Oliver Wakeman recorded by Yes that was released on the mini-album "From The Page" following Chris Squire's death. It is especially interesting that the songs share only two musicians: Steve Howe and Alan Price, and while Billy Sherwood sounds close to Squire, keyboards and vocals differ considerably. Nevertheless, there are similar harmonies here and there.
ua-cam.com/video/1SGliMLJ3eI/v-deo.html
@@magicalmystery1964 ever heard of a composer by the name of Sibelius? You've heard his work on CTTE...
I have never been more ready for a new release than I am now !!! This is excellent 🤘
Great song. I really liked the final part.
I am from the Anderson, Rabin, Wakeman camp but gotta say this is a tastefully done piece. Job well done guys.
same here, my thoughts exactly
Reading your comment, is really inspiring, 👍
Same but I do love Geoff Downes stuff too.
For me, Rabin is great, but that YES isnt YES. Its a fantastic 80's band with Jon Anderson singing, as he has done on a lot of other albums.
@@deansusec8745 Great point. I always preferred Brufford on drums and Wakeman on keys but I preferred Rabin on guitar and production. lol.
This song is fantastic. Great fantasy vibe. The whole album is great but this is my favorite song by far
After many years a Yes...song!!!
Great song. It's better than I anticipated!
Great Yes song! Impresive the bass line, and of course, Mr Howe.
So glad the greatest band in the world is making new music and keeping the legacy alive. Yes is eternal.
Excellent song. Great work from all.
The legends themselves are back, *to be continued*
I'm glad that JoJo has given more people the chance to listen to Yes.
@@LtCdrXander Same
The name is a legend, Howe only is in this line up. The "legend" needs Squire, Anderson & Wakeman.
This song will likely spell the end of the band called “Yes.” Unless they specifically licensed the music and give credit, they have stolen this song from Francis Monkman of Curved Air.
@@tonyburton419
Bruford
Awesome yes this is what you call a new classic and now I have a reason to say YES more often
It's been such a long time since a Yes song blew me away the way this one just did. Don't get me wrong, plenty of great Yes songs on all albums always but very few Yes songs stand out in a truly epic way. This is one of those songs.
❄️"Fly clear with the falcon
perceive through the eagle's eye"❄️
I have to say, I like this song so much more than I expected (or like to admit). You can argue about the name of the band, but trying to hear the music as objectively as possible does wonders, I think.
FUN FACT! It's technically illegally for bands like Van Hagar and other acts to use the PRIOR BAND NAME. It's a bait and switch on consumers.
(Doesn't work for ALL band changes. Just the POPULAR ones. The tickets and ads must ALL mention "NOW WITH SAMMY HAGAR and NOT DAVE LEE ROTH" or it's consumer fraud, see? Imagine dragging all your friends to see the super-human Mahavishnu Orchestra in 1974...and where's... Billy Cobham? Hey, wait til you see their keyboardist Jan Hammer...hey where is he? well wait til y'all see Jerry Goodman..." IF IT'S NOT CONSUMER FRAUD, then there's no reason he couldn't call it "Mahavishnu Orchestra ll" get it? Van Hagar is LITERALLY a radically different PRODUCT ppl are paying for, than Van Halen. Same name is not legal in any way. I'm an atty who knows lots of these secrets that society normalized.)
SHORT answer:
"YES JR" would be a LEGAL name. "YES" would be unlawful. (It also damages the brand when kids go into a record store like Bull Moose and go to the YES section and they buy some ERSATZ yes and it turns them against THE BRAND, see?) "YES & NO" would've been fine too.
JUST BE HONEST.
We've normalized dishonest AND consumer fraud, sigh.
Hermosa cancion. Sonido moderno y al mismo tiempo mantiene el espiritu del viejo Yes. Saludos desde Mar del Plata, Argentina
The King of Prog is back.. Very respect to what they still do.. Keep continue the legacy!
Gracias por la música. Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
I love it! Wonderful song.
Almost never have I heard a singer who replaced another singer fit in so well. Great vocals.
Agreed.
Great! I'm APPROVED! Long live rock'n'roll 😉🤘and all old bands performed! 👏👏👏👏👏
YES!
This sounds like ASIA with some great GTRs
I hate to say it, but there's still a touch of magic left in the group. No matter how many changes YES goes through (and I've been a YES freak since 1971) they can still pull out a few gems. They're not as shiny as they used to be, but...my ears still smile after hearing YES.
Jam on, you old farts, and keep it happening!
Why would you "Hate" to pay them a compliment? It is such a pleasure to see/hear them back on form.
I'm with you on this one - not classic Yes, but some much better than recent output!

Beyond the ICE WALL!
WAKE UP, HUMANITY!!
LOVE TO ALL, FOR WE ARE ONE!!
Sherwood nailed it in this song I don’t care what anyone says
I am so excited for The Quest! I didn’t realize there were so many professional progressive musicians. Cannot wait to hear all of their offerings too- especially considering that they seem to know how to write perfect Yes music.
Sorry, I am just sick of people not appreciating something amazing. This is a new adventure from a band I admire deeply.
There are some gorgeous riffs in here! I am so excited to hear the rest.
Is this amazing? The song is alright but amazing seems a bit high.
A true Yes fan.
This song was not written by Yes. They stole it whole from Francis Monkman’s The Dawn Of Man. I see a lawsuit in their future.
see this: ua-cam.com/video/_tk9Deekoio/v-deo.html
Great song and much more energy than anything on Heaven and Earth. Looking forward to the new album.
"Yes, YESsssss! Yes, YESsssss!"
Fantastic. Great to hear the legacy of YES finally move forward with the final wish put forward by The Fish from his death bed to Billy Sherwood.
YES is "more" than a band - like Robert Fripp has attested in regards to King Crimson, YES is also a way of making music.
"THE QUEST" already sounds like homage was paid equally to the great history of Chris Squire with this band, as well as to the FUTURE dream.
Geoff Downes and Steve Howe sound terrific. Love what Billy is contributing here too.
Props to all. Here is to the FUTURE of YES...
"Cheers!"

They are still making brilliant music 🎶🎵👏
The production is outstanding. Very clean. Great performances too.
That's the problem, too clean. It's missing that analogue, "live in the room" feel to it.
In my opinion, it is not clean. It is just soft.
“Sterile”
Yep, the production is so much more sympathetic to YES's music than the atrocious Heaven & Earth.
@@simonal1989 i hear autotune in the voice? It's a pitty... I prefer Heaven & earth's sound, sincerely...
It sounds great . I am looking forward to your new album
10 years of greatness, 40 years of living on those past glories. And still they go on...
Like every other Prog band I guess, tho YES has tried to hold on longer than most … much to their detriment
Speaking as a Yes fan since the early '70's I couldn't imagine listening to any other vocalist other than Jon Anderson who I love but this song has proved me wrong because I really love this even though Jon Anderson and the late Chris Squire are not on it. I think they have done well finding Jon Davison. I just love Steve Howe's guitar playing too. He is a living legend. I have just bought this album and getting into the other tracks too. They've had some interesting line ups during the last few years. I saw them at a gig at the Bournemouth International Centre in 1998 and was so pleased that I got to see Chris Squire in action.
Impersonation is the highest form of flattery.
Best new thing I've heard from the Yes collective in ages. Bravo.
Yes collective?!? I thought they were a band.I guess that is better than the "zero original member karaoke act" I see them as.
Too bad then that it’s a direct ripoff of a Francis Monkman song. This band is DONE. I say NO to “Yes.”
@@PHDWhom Yep. Pretty bold to try pulling this off. I know it's obscure, but did they think that absolutely nobody would notice?
ua-cam.com/video/_tk9Deekoio/v-deo.html&lc=UgwkwmRQefskMbHJAFh4AaABAg&ab_channel=loupgarouable
@@PHDWhom I have a Geoff Downes cd from the early 80s period of song riffs, this is among them
@@lewisfalwell9101 then why do they credit Francis Monkman in the song? It’s because Downes mistakenly thought it was his but was proven wrong.
I hear ghosts of Drama, which was released when I was in high school. It's quite moving. I have a new found respect for this lineup. Everyone is doing a top notch job. Very fresh, modern, and beautiful. I hope Steve and Yes can last another ten years or more. The videos are strong and superbly done.
.
Ten years is a big ask for someone in their 70s … now that Alan is gone I would hope Steve and the lads would just retire the name.
Ahhhhhhh! Much better. Thanks
Go on, Yes!
