Yes has done a ton of different things throughout their work. I think it's great!
Lol your face when the vocals came in 🤣
😂
On every album (starting at Relayer) people have said-this isn't Yes. I love that Yes (and this IS YES) is the band that takes the most risk and tries new things fearlessly. They're willing to be told “no” by critics, and using that to evolve. So your NO is really them being on the right track to their next re-invention.
"Expectation is a prison". Perhaps it's time to re-evaluate your expectations.
I still think that DRAMA is a good album. I like it. Hugs from Brazil >>>>
Is it YES? Is it MAYBE? No, this is NO! Love your reaction, JP. Amusing and honest. That's what I come here for. See ya on the next one, which I believe you have heard before. It may have been one of your donation requests. Peace.
👍😎
Of course it is different. Everything is always different. This album is still badass like all the rest.
Some might argue Drama is the MOST Yes album of all.
I asked my love to give me shel-eh-eh-eh-elter and all she offered me were memes.
You have just discovered YES recently. what is YES? There are lots of versions of this band. You will likely HATE the 80s' thing. DRAMA historically has been known as great YES album.
90125, Big Generator & Talk. Those three albums were by the Rabin/Kaye line-up; AKA 82-94 Yes. After Talk, it becomes the Sherwood era & Howe comes back.
Then there are the two outlier Albums from the 82-94 era: Union by Yes in 1990 and the ABWH album of 1988. Bruford has disowned Union. Howe & Kaye do not get along and the whole vibe is off.
Very fun review. I have always liked this song even while recognizing it's not really Yes. The bass work is cool if nothing else.
Agreed. This is Hold Your Fire Yes including the Wal bass. I know you realize this by now but you did a donation request for Tempus Fugit for Rob quite a while back...
OMG, you compare this track to Hold Your Fire? Hold Your Fire is my 2nd favorite album in all music history. Second only to Tales From Topographic Oceans. Maybe that's why I only like 2 songs on Drama, and this is one of them.
@charleswagner2984 Justin couldn't stand Hold Your Fire and as a Rush fan since 76' I couldn't either. Adult Contemporary Rush. Power Windows was getting there buy HYF was over the top. Tai Shan of course being the worst. Much worse than this song by "Yes"...
@@kennethmckinney2532 Yep, I agree! Rush on Hold Your Fire sounds sluggish and tired and the production is horribly dated late 80s with lots of reverb (Power Windows' sounds were also very mid-80s but the album was great). Also, the songs on HYF are way too long for what they offer. I only keep "Force Ten", "Lock And Key" and maybe "Turn The Page" but that's it and besides, I never listen to these songs!!! That's to say my aversion to Hold Your Fire!😉
The next track makes up for it.
He will recognise it, too - He'd reacted to it already a while ago.
Yes, the stutter singing in the verses is jarring, but aside from that I absolutely love this song, perhaps it’s because I’m a keyboard player and Jeff is very prominent in this song. Is it Yes music, yes, it is. This song simultaneously looks backward, and points forward to what Yes would do more of in years to come. We can’t forget songs like Yesterday and Today, and Time and a Word, these were both essentially pop songs for the late 60s early 70s. Wondrous Stories and several songs on Tomato are also essentially pop songs with Rick Wakeman embroidery. One of the things that I have always loved about Yes is that they can do the long epics, and the short popular songs with equal skill and class. Let’s also remember, most of their big epics were not singular compositions, but rather were pieced together bit by bit from lots of recording time in the studio, that they then had to learn how to play live, compared to their shorter songs, which were either the result of jams, or of deliberate composing. Now, all that being said, there could just be something wrong with me, after all, I really like, Hold Your Fire, Power Windows, and A Momentary Lapse Of Reason.
This song is definitely an outlier on the album. I wouldn't call it a Buggles song, but rather a Chris Squire song they pulled out because they didn't have anything else! I didn't care for it on first listen, and it's only in light of the quality of music Yes made in the last 20-30 years that it has risen in esteem. The earlier studio version (instrumental only -- Jon never sang a vocal) is almost disco. This version has its flaws, but it's definitely an improvement. Re: Chris not playing bass, I have a feeling he was already positioning himself for life after Yes, and was honing other skills (he also played some piano on FOOW.) Re: the vocal line, I'm guessing Trevor is singing the exact same thing Chris had on his demo. The weird thing about 'Drama' is that it's part Yes, part Buggles, and part Chris Squire solo album.
Ty for reaction. I like that Chris' voice is up in the mix. We can thank Trevor for producing 90125. Maybe not vocals on this track. 😊
I wish that eerie keyboard thing at the beginning had gone on for a couple of minutes before the song kicked in.
I hated this album and for 9 years insisted that this isn't Yes music. Then in 1989, ABWH created their album which proved to me that Drama really is a Yes album with all Yes music in every Yes song. ABWH is far better than Drama, but nothing on it is Yes music. I was so happy that Squire sued ABWH to keep them from using the name Yes, because none of their songs are Yes music.
Squire was YES
@@lesblatnyak5947 To a large extent, Chris Squire was Yes. But not entirely Yes. He made Yes in such a way that Yes could go on without him like the London Symphony Orchestra. But it took decades of changes for Yes to continue creating new Yes music without him. Notice that since Tales From Topographic Oceans, Every new Yes album is quite different than all the others before it.
Billy Sherwood said that Chris told him "Play the music. Keep the band going as long as you can. Make me proud."
Blissful dreams was best part of video.
The music reminds me of "ASIA", Steve Howe would join in the near future 😅
The day Progressive Rock Music died.
After that, me and most everyone said f*ck it...
Run AWAY From The Light!!!! very good!
Maybe the influence of The Police at that time?
I can't see the influence of punk (which was already out of date by 1980), but there's no doubt about the importance of The Police (a huge number of bands and artists were openly or indirectly influenced by The Police in the early 80s). Yes, there's no denying that "Run Through the Light" is musically influenced by The Police.
On the vocal, maybe. Chris' earlier demo is nothing at all like The Police, though. It's more like Abba!
@@yes_head 👍Absolutely! That's how it sounds!😉
Tempus Fugit (fu-jit, soft g) was the song I heard on the radio. I was surprised when you said Into The Lens was the single, I would have guessed Tempus Fugit because that was the radio hit when this album came out. Tempus Fugit is Latin for time flies.
The last one, Tempest Fugit is a fun song. It was almost on every mix tape/CD I made btw 96-03
Listening to this today and realizing how much I didn't listen closely to some of the parts way back when. Yeah the vocals were silly. Trevor Horn did such a great job on later albums as a producer. The next Yes albums and Seal albums.
"What's going on?" - Quickly watching this video before going to bed! 😄
(It's already 12.30am here in NZ)
Not an outstanding track by any stretch. But I don’t skip it. Drama for me is still a great album. An outlier in their catalog. It’s definitely Yes on some tracks and not Yes on others. But still a good album. Classic Yes ended with Tormato. Don’t expect them to sound like classic Yes on any album after that. Although they came close with the Keystudio tracks in 96. The 80’s Yes material with Trevor Rabin is very good too but again, not classic Yes. More like 80’s pop Yes. Drama is a precursor to the music that follows in the 80’s and early 90’s. Still beats anything they’ve done since Magnification.
I think it's a good song despite the new wavey vocal bit. Tell us how else would he've done that line? This song is very cinematic sounding. I dig it!
I appreciate your honesty. I disagree, but I get where you're coming from. This was my second Yes concert, and for me it fit right in with the rest of the catalogue. I still like it.
The first and last tracks on this album are the best 2 songs in my opinion.
🤩
👍☮️😎
It may sound odd, but I think the verses sound pretty typical Yes, despite Trevor's weird jerky vocals (which don't sound natural at all, by the way), but it's in the choruses that there's something that reminds me of The Police (maybe the fretless bass, I can't work out exactly). The reverberated drum sound is downright ugly, so I can understand why you might be shocked to hear all this😉.
I myself nearly had a heart attack when I heard Journey's Infinity (I could never get used to Steve Perry's vocals and for me Journey on their first three excellent albums was a completely different band compared to the AOR marshmallow they did with Perry). I think ‘Tempus Fugit’ should leave a better impression on you...
Spot-on, I gave up on Yes after this!
These drums are killer bro.
Great song vocals get better as it goes. Bass is interesting
Yoy will love tempus. Bet?
He did Tempus months ago and loved it but it was before he started their discography. It will be interesting if he has a different viewpoint this time around having heard all of the great and classic Yes now...
Ha!
This is my favorite Yes album. Jon Anderson's voice sounds like a dentist drill to me. This is succinct and concise, unlike much of Yes's stuff which is senseless meanderings.
not the greatest album, but still waaaay better than almost everything produced now - wish i could go back in time - driving my sirocco and listening to this on the tape deck
Fyre
I agree with your critic of the vocals but the drum "composition" is cool (maybe not the recording quality).
The verse, the drums starts with a half-time beat (maybe quarter time. LOL) The chorus, the drums regular time. The second time around' the verse, drums are regular time and the chorus drums are at half time. Interesting to me!
true true true. Honesty, in my mind I held this album higher instrumentally speaking, but now that I'm hearing it again after decades of not listening to it - aside from Machine Messiah, this album is pretty MOR. I would love to hear the recording of this track done with Anderson as a comparison.
The version with Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman called "Dancing Through the Light" is one of the bonus tracks on the 2004 remaster of the Drama album. You can barely hear Jon Anderson (whose voice is filtered through effects) and musically it's pretty dull. By comparison, "Run Through the Light" with Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes is much better.
There are about 6 bonus tracks with Anderson singing on the 2003 remastered Drama. They're mostly songs he took with him when he left Yes with Rick. I have those tracks on a bootleg record, so I didn't buy Drama remastered. A couple of Anderson Drama songs appear on his Song Of Seven solo album.
@@charleswagner2984 I've never been a fan of Jon Anderson's solo albums or his duets with Vangelis and I'm far from liking anything he's done with Yes! Maybe that's why I never had a problem with Drama or Fly from Here (whether it was the early version with Benoît David or the latter one with Tevor Horn). On the other hand, I don't like Jon Davison's voice at all, which flatly imitates Jon Anderson (the original is better than the pale copy😉).
@@a.k.1740 With the exception of Olias, I'm no fan of his solos either. And post 90125 I find his vocal style tedious. But pre 90125 no one could take the place of Anderson, he was a.perfect match to the brilliance of musicianship of that era. And as far as the other more recent vocalists of 'Yes' - well they should have changed the name of the band..
@@a.k.1740 Just listened to the Paris Recordings -- oh man I'm so glad they didn't release that as a Yes album. That would have been so embarrassing! Aside from the lame straight forward repetitive instrumentation and Wakeman's even more cheesy keyboards than in Tormato, Anderson's lyric writing went from mind expanding poetry to this banal love and fairytale drivel. I now have much more respect for what we got in Drama -- even if, going forward, I still won't ever plan on listening to it again.
LOL! Great Review!
It seems like this line up struggled with compositions. It appears that often bands struggle with different approaches to stay relevant. Rush members were influenced by the Police and this helped them to craft Signals in 82', but later albums suffered especially from Power Windows to Presto.
You're talking out of your hat. Power Windows is one of their best albums.
I hear a lot of Police influence
jajajajajajaja... I always laugh with this song, why he did this????????????????
😎
Ok Buggles tune ✌️
@@lesblatnyak5947 👍👑😎
Thank you! When this album was released, I bought it and when I heard this song I was like, "What in the living fμck is this sh!t? Because, this ain't Yes!" Like I commented yesterday, I either like or love 3 songs on this album ...but geez, this song is terrible, IMO. Thankfully, one of my favorite Yes songs is still to come. ❤✌
I always thought this was a gift to the Buggles, and unfortunately it tainted the entire album
I think this is the weakest track on the album. A lot of it seems forced to me and, yeah, the vocals are not particularly pleasing to my ears. Howe kills it though. That Squire opted to play piano and let Horn play bass was very much in line with how I understand Squire worked. He was often looking for ways to expand the sound and feel of the band. He did the same thing with one of the tracks on Union where he had Billy Sherwood play bass.
Not the best track on Drama.There were at least two better songs from those sessions that didn't make it onto Drama - Go Through This and We Can Fly From Here both of which were played live on the 1980 tour. They were clearly at a final stage of preparation and both appear on reissues, so I've always been puzzled as to why Run Through the Light made the cut. It's not great and I agree with you -the vocals - she-e-e-e=elter) are terrible.
100% Buggles. I don't hear any Yes on this one. It's not even a decent Buggles tune. Bleh.
When I first got this album when it came out I was turned off by Trevor Horn's vocals. When I got to this song I had your exact reaction and I'm a die hard Yes fan. It has TERRIBLE vocals. Album filler at best. The whole album to me was a let down. During the one tour Trevor Horn did with Yes he got worse as the tour went along. His voice just couldn't take singing the old Yes classics. Total bummer.
Apart from Machine Messiah and Tempus Fugit, Drama really sucks.
This is more arrangement than actual song. There's kind of one or two melodic ideas and they're not that gre-eh-eh-eh-eh-eat. Band plays well, but I don't love this song.
Yes, not yes
Yeah this isnt a true 70s Yes album, but its an 80s... not that interesting!
I think Jon Anderson could get away with this one. In his own style. Yeah I skip this track most of the time !
You should listen to "Dancing Through the Light" (bonus track on the 2004 remaster of Drama) which is the prototype of "Run Through the Light" (with Jon and Rick), it's frankly worse than the version with Trevor and Geoff! (although it was probably just a working version, but it was bad from the start).
Yeah that's a hard NO. Not Yes, not even that good. Too bad since I liked the other songs. I am your father's Yes.
