Just a wonderful, wonderful song. "90125" is an amazingly effective concentration of disparate talents - possibly the best production job in the history of music thanks to Trevor Horn.
+Chuck Lang ...this is my favorite album from Yes. I know the older generation prefers "Roundabout", but musicians have to keep up with the times. And this album certainly did, with out losing their original sound.
This is not their original sound. This was very eighties. It might sound more like the older stuff than the rest of the album but that's not saying much. It's a good album but it's nothing like their older material which was far more adventurous and far less commercial.
@@mikereiss4216 No it's Trevor's original sound. and it's full blown orchestral rock and it's beautiful along with all of Trevor's stuff. Who GAF whether it sold? Not a single member of Yes ever did.
@@mikereiss4216 "Commercial" is not a bad thing per se - a band has to move with the times. 90125-era Yes is just as much at the cutting edge of music as early-70s Yes.
Hearts will always remind me of the grandparents, married 61 years. "Pop" died April 26, 1996. Gramma, November 23, 1990. The evening after Pop's funeral I was driving around aimlessly, with 90125 playing on the car stereo. When Hearts came on, I swear their spirits were in the car with me. And as the song ended (As we flow down life's rivers...) they told me everything will be OK. They're together again, and no need to worry about them. Great song and video. Thanks so much for posting.
This is my favorite Yes song. I bought the cassette tape the year it came out. I must have played it a thousand times. All these years later, hearing it again, I still like it. Thanks.
Amazing ending to an amazing album. Love the progression and build of of the song and the introspective somewhat melancholy finish that almost leaves me a little breathless. Definitely wore this vinyl out.
+Barbara Kirn I saw 90125 3 times Chicago, Alpine Valley and Madison Wi. I had just graduated Craig Sr. High Janesville Wi. This solo still today is probably one of my all-time favorites, I know exactly what you mean....HAD TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS, so glad to see you too love it. Randall
+Chris Anslinger Me too. One of the first 10 albums I ever bought. Unfortunately the tape melted into the cassette holder during my 1st move away from home (don't ask). Gladly replaced it with a CD which at least had the lyrics.
I remember seeing Yes in Hershey PA in 1985 at the football stadium, it was one fo those picturesue days and they were performing this song, I said to buddy (who was not a Yes fan) "What do you think?".... He simply "I cannot believe it.. they are crazy good"... This song is absolutely superb, but the whole album is superb, every song on it, not a loser in the bunch...
One of the best YES songs ever. Specifically in the post-Drama era. I’m a huge Yes fan and prog rock fan. I’m late to enjoying the 90125 but I’ve recently have come to LOVE it. Jon and Chris vocals are outstanding. This song makes me want to cry wow!
this song has so many memories....although the first time i heard it led to a relationship that collapsed, I am so glad of the lessons I learned from it....this song is a poignant reminder that not everything that ends is a disaster...sometimes the bittersweet memories make it all worthwhile.
I discovered this by accident 3 or so years ago. I knew of the hits from this album, but not the deeper tracks. What i did was put my Playstation 3 playlist on in this racing game 'Ferrari the race experience' i had. The game was grindy with many championships. I was driving around in rain in one of the races and this came on. I was hooked ever since. Amazing, amazing song.
Me and a good workmate of mine used to drive around in his Jeep in Saudi Arabia listening to this badass track. Whenever I hear this I always remember the great times we had together.
If I'm not mistaken, this song was built around the initial keyboard melody by Tony Kaye. My favorite track from 90125. Great album, great tour, great time.
@Eric Erickson It ha always been confusing to me whether Rabin or Kaye put down the original demo tracks. Clearly they were replaced during the final production of 90125. I do know for certain that all the Hammond organ parts, and at least some of the keyboard performances are Kaye with others done by Rabin. I'm also pretty sure "Hearts" and "Cinema" were later additions to the album as they were co-written with the band (and Anderson on "Hearts"). I'm guessing Kaye played everything on those two tracks and added that keyboard intro at the beginning of "Hearts." That Hammond solo in the middle of "Hearts" has to be Kaye.
@@bastidface In the Wikipedia page for this album, Kaye indeed quit because he didn't want to do any synth parts, so Rabin did those (which is confusing cause on The Yes Album Kaye wound up doing some early synth work). AAR, I consider this 1 of the best closing songs ever for an album & 1 of the best albums ever.
@@JoeVideoed Yes, it's very confusing, and I suppose we'll never really know exactly who did what. However, I'm willing to bet that Kaye played some synths on 90125, at least on "Cinema," "Hold On," and "Hearts," with the rest being Hammond and piano. Oddly, he did end up getting comfortable playing a DX-7 on the 90125 tour and played an assortment of synths on "Big Generator" and follow up tours. But he did stick to Hammond for "Talk." And I agree, "Hearts" is an amazing song that still raises the hair on the back of my neck. I'm still hoping for a true one-off union album and tour that would bridge the 80's and 70's Yes with some bold new material by Rabin, Howe, and Anderson. Squire would be severely missed, but Billy is very capable. There would be a lot of cooks, but if the recipes are kept simple, the performers do what they do best, and members don't step on each others feet, it could be done. It'll never happen, but one can dream.
Yes! it was a GREAT tour! I saw it with my brother and a friend of ours in Detroit, us sibs skipping out early from doing the company's yearly inventory! HA! There were 8 members of the band from various times... both drummers and keyboardists, and Trevor Rabin introduced, although IMO you can't beat the stylings of the original.. God rest him! VERY cool, was Amazing Grace in the encore!!!
Thank you so much for posting this. I'm insanely crazy about the Yes album 90125, and this song in particular literally takes my breath away, brings tears to my eyes and by the end leaves my heart aching for more. My god, that last guitar solo starting at 5:58, in my mind is one of the most moving I've ever heard... . Being that Hearts is the last song on the album, might they have intentionally "saved the best for last"? :) A brave move, but speaks to how spectacular the entire album is and the sheer fact that the musicians believed most would revel in its glory, through to the end... time and time, again!
And you won't know it unless you play the entire album. I had a very brief conversation with Chris Squire about the album, which was just released at the time. He literally begged me to listen to entire album right up to the end. Some of my good bass player friends have gone on to glory, in recent years. RIP my friend Chris. RIP my brother Jorge Casas.
@@markmunoz4101 Chris Squire's passing was a big blow to us Yes fans and now Alan is gone too. Heaven now has one of the best rhythm sections in all of rock in its House Band.
I'm glad Jon Anderson came back because this classic tune wouldn't of sounded the same without him in fact the whole album,90125 probably wouldn't of been a big hit but my favorite album and song.
It takes you on a journey from a foggy Mississippi River delta to out beyond Orion's Belt, and safely home again. The fog horn just about kills me... So much sadness mixed within lyrics, tempos, instrumental embellishments and key changes in one of the most exotic yet triumphant pieces of music ever from Yes.
Beyond gorgeous. Deeply lyrical and touching, like the entire album. 90125 is THE apex of 80s production, with HUGE real drums played masterfully by probably the most underrated drummer of all time, Alan White. Jon's vocals at the end are emotionally shattering.
Growing up, I knew all the radio hits on here, even remember when the 'Owner of a lonely heart' video premiered. Never heard this song until about 2 years ago when I finally got this album. Instantly fell in love with this incredible song. Amazing stuff.
Me too! I have tickets to the Oct, 9nth show in Durham, NC. This was always my favorite song on 90215. One of the best albums ever produced IMHO. Hope you enjoy the show!
This album, overall, saved the band, and gave them longevity. What blows me away, is as popular as Owner of a Lonely Heart was, almost every other song is better. Especially this one :)
Possibly my favorite from this album? Nahhhh it is just too hard to choose one. 90125 is a masterpiece. I used to say "Hold On" was my favorite, but I think I like this one even more.
One of the best Yes tracks and the best one of the 80s. The final guitar solo by Trevor Rabin is simple but devastating in its emotional impact. Gives me goosebumps and always makes me reach for the tissues. Very fine song indeed.
May be other ways to understand yes, but my path was 1st the Fragile album, then close to the edge. After that no matter which way I went chronologically it just gets better and better. Timeless ahead of bands of their day. But congested with the trials we bring upon one another.
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
Love this song and possibly my very favorite from Yes. great vocals and message. Trevor's guitar is stellar on this one.
Now that I'm all alone this is very Bittersweet song for me...RIP...ALL MY FRIENDS FAMILY...and LOVED ONES...!!!
Just a wonderful, wonderful song. "90125" is an amazingly effective concentration of disparate talents - possibly the best production job in the history of music thanks to Trevor Horn.
Stuck in my head for 34 years.
That's a good thing.
Another great Yes song. Makes me think of To Be Over. Take care my fellow Yes fans! We miss you Chris...
I want this song played at my funeral. Jon and the boys just put me in heaven.
The musical arrangement is phenomenal. Whole album is excellent.
Deborah it's almost like a symphony in complexity. Couldn't agree with you more.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? I'm a seasoned, hardcore Yes fan, and this is one of their best!
This is top 5 all time rock ballads in my book!
Most underrated song by Yes, this will always be my favorite song of all time
One people together, one freedom for today...
Possibly the best song on this album. So many layers to it, and the lyrics are like poetry.
Phil collins
Dan foglegurg
This song is wonderful. Never get tired of hearing
You know? You took the words right out of my mind!
it first appeared on 90125 and is the most underrated song on the album.
My personal favorite.
+Progrockdude Same
Underrated album too but i love it from start to finish
Ian Brock an absolutely beautiful song!!
It´s the best one on this album, a masterpiece.
He took pictures on an old camera - we snuck it in... How awesome was my father??? He was all about photography. I still have those photos...

😍😍😍😍
Jon sounds just as Lovely as ever!! ❤❤❤❤❤
He's awesome!
My fav. off 90125. Mellows me out like "To Be Over." RIP Chris......
My favorite to off 90125. My son was a baby at the time of release, this song would always settle him down, before going to sleep. It was a God send.
This is my favorite Yes song. I bought the cassette tape the year it came out. I must have played it a thousand times. All these years later, hearing it again, I still like it. Thanks.

Scott Wilson Well said. Love the description and imagery you used. Wish I had been there. Superb album and one of my favorite songs of all time.
i was at that hershey, pa show. this song is, by far, my favorite rabin/yes song. cool how your friend came to appreciate this.
90125 was an iconic classic album of the era - a joy to enjoy the songs again - a band of talented musicians 😊
Seen 90125 at the old Spectrum in Philadelphia in 1985.
On my 18th birthday.
Never forget that show.
Absolutely amazing.
Love YES...
miss and love you Chris squire. love you all
Really like yes and this song♥️♥️

perhaps the best song of the album
Thanks :)
90125 is genius from start to finish, with hearts as the perfect final overture. I always have to listen to it a second time, to the last note
YES was my first rock concert in 1984 when 90125 came out. An experience like no other!
Trevor's guitar work is superb on this song and the vocal harmonies awesome.
Saw them live in Atlanta with my late cousin and my late father. It was amazing.
one of the greatest choruses of all time...
Rabin is amazing
Trevor at 3 min. And 15 non stop blows my mind
Me and a good workmate of mine used to drive around in his Jeep in Saudi Arabia listening to this badass track. Whenever I hear this I always remember the great times we had together.
I seen Yes in Boulder Colorado 1985 best concert I ever seen !!!
One of my favorite live songs. Trevor had speakers all over the theater set up
What a beautiful song👍👍👍👍

Saw this live with my father. How cool is that?
Wayyy cool!
Jean Pettit what a treasured memory 🙏
Very!!!!
Very cool. This song is epic
Played on ladder tour manchester appollo awsome
To any/all Yes fans... May I suggest exploring the relation between 90125's "Hearts" and Relayer's "To Be Over"
I can see where you're coming from, especially considering they're among my all-time songs of theirs (ESPECIALLY the latter).
Ricordi che ti mangiano vivo. Meravigliosa.
One heart's for love, one's for feeling ; 2 hearts are better than one...

YES....is UNMATCHED🎶😎
Best song Yes ever recorded IMO
Brilliant, always remind me on my childhood watching the blue sky. \,,/
This is a MASTERPIECE of a song
Such an Awesome song on an album where every track is good.

Beautifull
4:36. OMG. That break. Pretty heavy for such a nice song!
I agree with you and I’m about to edit from 4:37 -5:31. The whole segment is unfortunate.
It’s such a great song.
Re-trace steps - not only a classic Yes song ... though the visual interpretation is superbly done - thanks and appreciation - beautifully done 😊

Just one word : beautiful

Never heard this song until about 2 years ago when I finally got this album. Instantly fell in love with this incredible song.
Amazing stuff.
One of Jon's favorites. Appeared on Change We Must. Hope this will performed by the Masters on the ARW tour.
Me too! I have tickets to the Oct, 9nth show in Durham, NC. This was always my favorite song on 90215. One of the best albums ever produced IMHO. Hope you enjoy the show!
See u in Durham. Weather permitting hopefully
Such a shame that Jon's version on Change We Must does not end on the same beautiful chord.
Exceptional. Listened on vinyl yesterday. A masterpiece.
Happy Valentine's Day!
I'm feeling it, I'm loving it...
That break at 4:39 when the organ solo kicks in is one of the coolest drops ever!!
Spectacular album
And I remember Geneva, NY - and all that happened there...
This song is so beautiful one of my favorites for sure!!!
it''s all about LOVE
Been loving this song since 1983.
Yes I Love you...!!!
Take account as you drift downstream^
Yes I love you.... Scott
Two Hearts are Better than One 🎶 💙 .. 🎸4:35 - 6:26 🎸😎🤘
A lot of people forget this song was in the movie Legend.
It was? Are you sure you're not confusing this with the Tangerine Dream/Jon song 'Loved By The Sun' as featured in the American version of "Legend"?
you are right, Andy...loved that film!
i forgot..
I love Yes😃❤
Great Job!!! Haven't heard that song in a long time. Thanks for all your work!!
I love the video, it fits perfectly with the song and its meaning.
thanks again for the post. always something good.
Beautiful
90125 una obra maestra del nuevo sonido que Yes impuso en los 80s
Love this band! Thank u for sharing!!!

For me, the golden age of Yes ended with Tormato, but there are a few great tracks scattered around the numerous albums since. This is one.
Completely agree
encore ... souvenirs...
Wonderful listening to this song again.
Damn...the way Trevor makes his Stratocaster cry during his Epic guitar solo makes me fucking cry...
Thier best. Rocks yet feel every emotion of meaning
One of the best Yes tracks and the best one of the 80s. The final guitar solo by Trevor Rabin is simple but devastating in its emotional impact. Gives me goosebumps and always makes me reach for the tissues. Very fine song indeed.
The best album they did and they are all excellant
One of the best albums 👌
If Gods and Angels exists, they live in this song and in Anderson vocal parts.
BLESS THEM.

.....take account of All you've seen.^
The first and only Yes song I ever liked.
I have this CD and the whole CD is excellent.
Thank You for posting this video
