Hi everyone! I am very happy that my upload generated some interest. I have just dissected the original track and recorded a version of it for my cover duo. This video shows my method...ruclips.net/video/mL40KQcFG_M/видео.html
What really pulls me into the song is how the intro sounds are all blown out and the reverb is big, washy... then the full band kicks in and the mix dries up, super tight and crisp. Def Leppard gives way to Supertramp. Heavy contrasts everywhere. Unafraid, genius.
OWNER is an amazing tune. I was 14 when I bought 90125 (to have that particular song) and had no idea Yes was first a prog rock band. After hearing Chris Squire I decided I wanted to play bass like him. But honestly...that mix! Mr. Horn, I’m glad you saw this diamond in the rough and did your job above and beyond as this song opened up the doors and created a new generation of yes fans. Bravo sir!
I love the honesty. Besides all the creative differences, when something simply works out, it is the most amazing thing ever. Like this song. And the album. Let's not forget the album!
I am so glad Trevor’s ideas prevailed. To me, This album still is one of the tightest and most enjoyable sonic mixes ever. I used to use this song, and ‘Oh Yeah’ by Yello, to make my mid level stereo system - sound phenomenal - as everything just seemed to jump to life. When this album hit the airwaves, it demonstrated that Yes was back in big way… and not afraid to take chances, which really is what they were always known for. I was so happy they were back too. A Great vid here. I really enjoyed this. Cheers.
Yes wasnt "back", they were just performers for songs written and produced totally separate from them, in a totally different style that they objected to strenuously.
Very interesting. It went on to be the biggest hit of the band. They needed fresh, refresh… and this was the air that launched them again. YES , with modern feel. And still absolutely brilliant music.
Ha! Jon told Rick Beato the “move yourself” sparse lyrics were his idea - It sounds like there was a lot of ego clashes going on. The band really fought over 90125, but the album stands alone as a masterpiece in my book.
One of the most innovative songs at the time. The synths. Like he said the Synclavier was a very expensive unit. Way before laptop shit. Like a $100,000 machine. The samples of an orchestra which could be triggered with one note. Great editing great mix and very different from what YES did previously which was more prof rock. This was pop but intelligent kudos!!
@XICODECOPA Rabin wrote it. It was recorded with him and Squire on vocals, long before Anderson came in for one month of sessions and changed some lyrics.
It's difficult to fathom that one of the most perfect rock/pop songs of all time was fraught with so much acrimony in its creation. And despite the tremendous success that YES enjoyed in the late 60s and much of the 70s, OWNER OF A LONELY HEART would eclipse everything that came before it. Go figure. I was a diehard YES fan in the 70s but every time I hear OOALHeart my brain is flooded with dopamine. It's just that good.
"Owner of a Lonely Heart" was one of the earliest Pop songs to use sampling. The intro drums is originally from "Kool Is Back" by Indianapolis, Indiana based band Funk Inc.
@@REDD_BLITZ oh. you’re talking about the fill at the very beginning. no shit. sorry. you said intro drums. I misunderstood. because the intro is also just drums until the bass kicks in.
90125 is one of their best albums. They managed to put pop and prog together hiding the prog part quite well. Asia with Steve Howe did the same thing and also a great album.
hang on.... b/c we're entering the AGE OF (Brutal) HONESTY. The world is crying right now, re how BRUTAL the web is, and social media... but this is Growing Pains. this is gonna be a wild ride! The next ten years is going to be maybe the most revolutionary in human history, as humans are starved for TRUTH and logic...
What a great interview. Such a timeless song. Recently I saw a clip showing the isolated cowbell track. It’s hard to hear in the mix, but now that I know that there is cowbell, I can’t not hear it. I wonder if Trevor Horn said to the band,“I gotta have more cowbell!”
If he walked right by me on the street, I would never recognize him ....he's forever etched in my mind as the guy with the funny goggle/glasses in Buggles , singing 'Video Killed The Radio Star' ....... the glory days of MTV ...... those were such kick ass times ...
Trevor Horn is a genius, no comment...but despite his humour, the other Trevor, Rabin, finally became a higher genius, in production skills...check it on Talk from Yes, by linking a bunch of macs...The calling, Walls or Endless Dream are much higher works than this, and what to say about his last work, Jacaranda...a masterwork.
This is seriously great sh!t for Yes fans. I need this whole interview along with an accompanying live performance of each song they talk about on a DVD now!!
@Nathan R - He doesn't actually talk all that much about Yes during the full interview, which is more trying to represent an overview of his whole career up to that point. Here it is anyway: ruclips.net/video/DR4GwBRWR6Y/видео.html 🙂
The 1st track I heard from the newly reformed YES was on the radio, 93.3 WMMR (Philadelphia), and it was "Our Song" from 90125. Which is strange given the success of Owner of a Lonely Heart.

@@craigfazekas3923 Some of the best station ID's for 'MMR were recorded by Jerry Stevens back in the 1960s, and they were still legendary when I was at 'MMR in 1977. We had some great times then.
Thanks to this insight I have a newfound appreciation for Yes most overplayed song, Horn one-upping Anderson's rebuke & pompous lyrics by "Shooting the white eagle in the sky", I never got the reference until now, that's a different level of genius 👌
Trevor Horn is to me close to god as a producer. And he is obviously a nice person, who can tell great stories with fascinating details. I just wonder why almost everyone he worked with sued him afterwards.
They sued him because while he is a great producer, he isn't known as a great person. He's very charming but long known for being a big fan of strangling contracts and tyrannical control freakery. He knows he's a bastard (and even hints at it in comparing himself to Mutt Lange in this interview) and works pretty hard to manage his PR very well. Four decades of stories about his behavior as a label head and producer become less anecdotal over time.
That's what I would guess, too. But it's hard to believe when you hear him talking in interviews. Well, maybe you need to be some sort of tyran when it comes to producing. And when I signed my first contract as a musician I asked "Hey, we're friends ... do we really need this lawer sh*t?". The answer was as short as true: "This just in case we're sometimes not friends anymore". When it comes to money ...
And I thought the album revealed a different side to Yes but it clearly wasn't the case, they wanted a more traditional familiar sound, it's a great track though and largely thanks to Trevor Horn's determination.
Well in the end both Rabin and Horn got their way, their are parts (like in the intro) with HUGE drum sounds (in fact comically huge) and then the it settles down to a simple beat.
Trev, you're a marvellous laugh!!!!!!!! :-D Fantastic Rabin impersonation!!!!!! Aye!!!!! Looooooooooooove!!!! "Ya don't wanna go dancin', ya won't even answer the phone" is just MAGIC!!!!! How on earth did you create that in your mind while doing 'a Trevor Rabin'??? You're a genius!!!!!!!!!!!!! To the other Trev: aye, you WERE too American-ish indeed, come on laddie........ ;-)
And again, you're absolutely right about Yes' awkward attitude at changing riffs and making them too bloody pompous... good quote about The Police, too, 'Owner' would have also been a fantastic Sting one, aye. Many people still confuse Yes with The Police about this song...
@@Littlebabyandersen Yes, the original pre Horn and Anderson demo is like a Dirk Diggler outtake. For such a brilliant guitarist, Rabin's obsession at that time with generic AOR rock makes me wonder what on earth Squire was thinking; one listen to songs such as Looking For A Lady or She's Easy from Wolf, his last solo LP before joining with Squire and White and you would think you were getting the Loverboy guitarist in the band!...maybe they hoped to make themselves into another Asia, and be a commercial success, which, of course, they did. I love Trevor as a guitarist, but I could really do without the Foreigner-Lite tendencies he has
@Bitley Sounds & Refills - Seeing that your comment's now already 6 years old, I assume you must've meanwhile watched the complete interview. But if not: ruclips.net/video/DR4GwBRWR6Y/видео.html 🙂
Dumpy Goodness Untrue!Michael Rutherford had His sound 2 gether in1967,the year Genesis began.And Rutherford was Way more locked in with ,Mayhew.Mover,and finally on "Nursery Cryme",Collins.Both bands used 2 eagerly catch each other's shows,especially at the Aylesbury,and were huge fans of each other's work. Squire and Anderson,described attending a Genesis show,like going 2 High Mass or a Cathedral ceremony!Huge admirers of each other's stunning virtuosity.What U don't know,and just assume,eh?✨🎼🙏🏼🎼✨
I’ve always loved Owner of a Lonely Heart not as a Yes song but as a game changer in modern music, for better or for worse. It really shows the difference between band composition and producer composition. The programming and pasting of all the instruments was very new for the time. Nowadays it’s child’s play. Did Trevor Horn create the sound of the future? Yes. For the better? Debatable.
@XICODECOPA Cool, I'd want to talk religion and astronomy with Jon. I like Rick Wakemans statement "NASA keeps sending people into space, just talk to Jon, he's already been there". I don't really see the connnectin with Labamba in Owner though, lots of latin rythms on big generator though. But i'm no musician. There also seems a bit of friction between him and that guy that replaced him as singer who produced 90125, i forget his name.
Growing up in the 70s with an older brother, I grew to love Relayer, Tales From Topographic Oceans and Close to the Edge. So in high school when 90125 came out, I hated it. The music seemed so boring and commercial. Now in my 50s I have grown to appreciate the album and realized I was wrong for judging the "Changes" Yes made, pardon the pun. (Also, Tormato, Drama and Going for the One were records that I loved.)
@@groovecake I’m not sure what the context of my comment was, because I am aware of most Yes things when they happen. I must have been sleep walking or something!! I purchased “Return Trip” right when it was released. Cheers
This man is a great great producer. It’s a pity he didn’t produce the first Propaganda album (A Secret Wish). I know I know, he was producing Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Still, a great album.
@@muzicaempathica6479 i thought he was saying LANG-A (as if that's the correct pronunciation of LANGE),and it's more likely Trevor has met Lange than we have so...
Gotta disagree about Chris Squire being the only bass player to melodic parts. He's a brilliant bass player and Trevor is right about him. However, Mike Porcaro of Toto, was also a brilliant Bass player who could play melodic bass. Sadly both Chris and Mike have passed away.
the ISSUE was if Chris is THE MOST MELODIC (and melodically ADVENTUROUS) and you don't even argue WHY Mike was SUPERIOR. It's not an issue of is Chris the ONLY melodic bassist. The ISSUE is if anyone took it further than Chris, and I'm a musicologist who has YET to find a bassist who has taken Squire-isms further than Chris did. That's astonishing.
Why does Jon Anderson hate Trevor Horn & The Art Of Noise bandmates so much? 90125 is a masterpiece & for me Leave It & Hearts are the best songs, on the L.P. I mean Leave It is on par with Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody for godsakes. Horn is not kidding when he said he’s the Hot Producer during 1982/83, he produced 90125 - Yes, Duck Rock - Malcolm McLaren, Who’s Afraid Of The Art Of Noise - Art Of Noise, Lexicon Of Love - ABC & Welcome To a the Pleasuredome- Frankie Goes To Hollywood, my god, all 5 of these acts all have there own sound, Horn was producer of the year in 83’, just astounding.....just saying with that resume, I would think Anderson would love to have worked with him, maybe because Horn is so heavy in studio trickery & yes very prog & musicianship over technology that Horn & Anderson collided in the studio also maybe because Horn sang lead on the Drama album & Anderson has issues with that, not sure....I think Trevor would do wonders producing a solo LP for Anderson but that will never happen I’m sure🥲
I never heard that before. To me they don't sound much like the Police with this. I hear much more of a Police influence in the Rush albums from the time period(Signals and GUP).
They were influenced by the production on Synchronicity. Oddly, Rush Power Windows was produced to try and mimic 90125's (Horns production) sound. So what this really means is that Hugh Padgham had a major impact on Yes and Rush indirectly.

Yes, Trevor Horn's doing.
The thing that I always like about Trevor Horn’s production was that he embraces technology without becoming a slave to it.
I could listen to him all day! I love Trevor!!
Wow! From using a Stewart Copeland sound on the snare to shooting the eagle in the sky, what a great & insightful interview this was. Much Thanx!
Trevor Horn is an absolute musical genius. An accomplished musician AND producer.
Yah genius at ruining musical masterpieces. Try Tormato. Or going for the one Them comment
@@biffjohnson7891 how did he ruin them?
No, he was superfluous to the song and band.
And songwriter! Triple threat Trevor!! 🙏
Is this a joke? Have you heard Rabin's demo of the song? Without Horn's production and additions, it would have been a complete dud @@ryanbotha9775

Very interesting interview. Trevor Horn was obviously the driving force behind “Owner Of A Lonely Heart”. Good thing they had him on board.
I would not be a Yes fan if this song hadn't been made. It opened my ears to their music. One of my favorite bands through all the line up changes.
Yeah, and bad thing they didn't have him on " Big Generator".

Funny that you heard this song during a bio-break because I heard Trevor Rabin say he came up with the main riff in the bathroom.

Still sounds amazing as does everything he touched in the early part of the 80's.

Drama needs a follow up!! ...,,.....please!?!?!?
They did it. It’s called “Fly From Here - Return Trip.” The full original Drama lineup including Trevor on vocals.
@@groovecake I’m not sure what the context of my comment was, because I am aware of most Yes things when they happen. I must have been sleep walking or something!! I purchased “Return Trip” right when it was released. Cheers
...the mind buggles!
This man is a great great producer. It’s a pity he didn’t produce the first Propaganda album (A Secret Wish). I know I know, he was producing Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Still, a great album.

Thx

Mutt Langer?
Mutter Langer
😀😀😀Yep! He said it---
TWICE!!!
@@muzicaempathica6479 i thought he was saying LANG-A (as if that's the correct pronunciation of LANGE),and it's more likely Trevor has met Lange than we have so...
Did he almost refer to Iron Maiden as an example of "big American rock"?
no , refer to def leppard
Owner of Exchange and Mart.
3:04 Somewhere out there Peter Hook from New Order spit out his soup when this was said.
And Martyn Turner from Wishbone Ash! 😉
The original demo is "sooo" bad. But like Trevor said, it had a great riff.
From the neck down, I would swear it was my Dad...
Subtitles, please! :'(
Eagle in the sky gunshot, worth the listen
Mutt Lange(R) .... really?

Video really did kill the radio star back in the day. MTV really made a lot of bands, no question.
Gotta disagree about Chris Squire being the only bass player to melodic parts. He's a brilliant bass player and Trevor is right about him. However, Mike Porcaro of Toto, was also a brilliant Bass player who could play melodic bass. Sadly both Chris and Mike have passed away.
the ISSUE was if Chris is THE MOST MELODIC (and melodically ADVENTUROUS) and you don't even argue WHY Mike was SUPERIOR. It's not an issue of is Chris the ONLY melodic bassist. The ISSUE is if anyone took it further than Chris, and I'm a musicologist who has YET to find a bassist who has taken Squire-isms further than Chris did. That's astonishing.
Why does Jon Anderson hate Trevor Horn & The Art Of Noise bandmates so much? 90125 is a masterpiece & for me Leave It & Hearts are the best songs, on the L.P. I mean Leave It is on par with Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody for godsakes. Horn is not kidding when he said he’s the Hot Producer during 1982/83, he produced 90125 - Yes, Duck Rock - Malcolm McLaren, Who’s Afraid Of The Art Of Noise - Art Of Noise, Lexicon Of Love - ABC & Welcome To a the Pleasuredome- Frankie Goes To Hollywood, my god, all 5 of these acts all have there own sound, Horn was producer of the year in 83’, just astounding.....just saying with that resume, I would think Anderson would love to have worked with him, maybe because Horn is so heavy in studio trickery & yes very prog & musicianship over technology that Horn & Anderson collided in the studio also maybe because Horn sang lead on the Drama album & Anderson has issues with that, not sure....I think Trevor would do wonders producing a solo LP for Anderson but that will never happen I’m sure🥲
Read Trevor’s biography.
@@apollozero oh really it’s in there, awesom….will grab the new book right away🤟🤟🤟🤟thanks again
Very funny!
And I knew they were influenced by Police then.
margus kiis Yeah, for the longest time I thought the song was the Police!
I never heard that before. To me they don't sound much like the Police with this. I hear much more of a Police influence in the Rush albums from the time period(Signals and GUP).
I think the most Police influenced Rush song is "Red Tide" from the Presto album.
They were influenced by the production on Synchronicity. Oddly, Rush Power Windows was produced to try and mimic 90125's (Horns production) sound. So what this really means is that Hugh Padgham had a major impact on Yes and Rush indirectly.
