One of the most wonderful pieces of music ever written and performed by human beings
Yes are a different level 👍
I bought this album when it came out in 1974. I was just 14 years old and the very next year I saw them live in concert for the first time. None of us 70s teens had heard anything like this and we played it over and over again at parties. Everybody liked it.Thanks for the great reaction.
You get something out of the song for a long time. Even after listening to it 100 times, you will still find something new in it.
Yes Yes
I love when you younger cats get turned on to stuff
that rocked me as a teenager. Dig.
Peace on earth.
Always judge a book by its cover… when it’s this track and it says “So good” I’m a subscriber ❤
Does my heart good to see all of the people rediscovering Yes and prog rock in general.
Loosely based around Tolstoy’s War and Peace…..ending with optimism….which we really need now. Timeless masterpiece…so relevant today
This is a story-song, basically about War. Fabulous music.
The greatest band of them all…
So happy you heard this magnificent piece of music, blessings brother. 🙏🏻
YES🤩
Great reaction to a fantastic, epic piece of music. The song was inspired by Tolstoy's "War and Peace" and represents the run-up to a war, an epic battle, and then finally a prayer for peace in the aftermath.
BTW, just so you know, Steve Howe's last name is pronounced "How", not "Howie". 🙂
Please continue on your YES journey!
Lmao when Philip says Howeeeeeee
well noted
lol
Couldn’t say it better ❤
YES! 😊
You should see this live with the symphony orchestra. You won't believe it!
i will check it out
@@PhiliminizzyReacts It's from 2001 "Symphonic Live," DVD and on youtube
It's funny...you react the same way that I did when I first discovered YES in the 70"s. There was NO BODY doing anything like this then, and there has been nobody since (that I have heard). Watching them in concert, you can see the talent oozing from each band member. But listen to the studio versions first, to have "good context". Loving your videos...thanks!
Many Yes fans place Awaken and Close to The Edge on top of their favorites Yes pieces. For me it's The Gates, Ritual, And the whole of these two albums, Relayer and Tales.
Awaken and GOD in no preferential order. But I do believe Awaken is the counterpoint to GOD.
Been listening to this since it was first released, and I still consider it one of the best pieces of music ever. My favorite of "the big three" from Yes, though I also absolutely love "Awaken" and "Close to the Edge."
The steel guitar on this is so beautiful. Along with some Pink Floyd songs and Brian Eno it's an underutilized instrument.

I was so impressed l saw Chris and Alan 35 more times over 40yrs. 🙏🍁
* on the Relayer album also first time I heard them. They opened the show with Sound Chaser, almost peed myself.
Sound Chaser is the most uncommon of their compositions with The Ancient. TWo of my all time favorites.
And that guitar solo in Sound Chaser… Howe really IS chasing the sound.
It takes a high musical IQ to appreciate a song like "The Gates of Delirium" or "Close to the Edge" especially the first time hearing it. I don't think the average person can appreciate music like this. It's not a short catchy tune that can be played on the radio. It takes a lot of talent to play it and musical genius to create it. It took me a few times to really start appreciating it. But the more I hear it the more I like it. That was a great reaction and I'm happy there's poeple like you out there to keep it alive for the future. I suggest "The Revealing Science of God". The live version from The Keys to Ascention album. I think it's better than the original from the 'Tales from Topographic Oceans' album which is the one everyone reacts to. But it's all good.
Agree on all fronts! Revealing from Keys is so great. The production on those albums is superb imo.
Wonderful job! You made me feel like I was hearing it for the first time, again, and I’ve listened to Gates thousands of times. It. Just. Keeps. Getting. Better!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Relayer was a great album for them. It was my go to album to get stoned & listen to. Its a pretty busy recording
"The pen won't stay the demons wings, the hour approaches pounding out the devils sermon". Who else writes like this. then comes Armageddon. Soon The Light.
The crooked was only allowed to become crooked, that it might be straightened, the broken to be healed.
Fantastic reaction again! Hope you keep digging into Classic YES!
I am!
Those guitar notes starting at 15:07 go right to your teeth...Howe's face, live, on those notes is otherworldly...
i know right
THe concept is from Tolstoy's "War and Peace," taking you through the battle all the way to hope/peace.
Subbed for watching you DIG on Squire's MONSTER bass chops...It ain't like anything else in music...it's the Pic on a Ric- that tone is so pleasant to the ear...Any prog head bass musician will keep some Squire up their sleeve for special moments... This is my well over a thousand listens to this song and album..One must hear a Yes album from the first note to the last, on their albums, two times in a row is even tastier...Hopefully you get to explore their discography. Yes is light...Good health and love from all that know you and yours...:)
thanks for watching and subbing..more to come
Isn’t it crazy how us true YES Fans have listened, felt, lived these Masterpieces thousands of times & that’s not even an exaggeration, I wrote that last night listening to a first reaction to CTTE, I’ve listened to CTTE thousands of times & each time it’s fresh, new & amazing. YES IS BEST!!!
@@BarrySanchez They truly are...it's a bit sad, having loved them when they were so young and vibrant, and watching them ebb away, First Chris, then Alan... : (... They are the perfect prog band...Good health and happiness to you and yours...:)
THE MOST PROGRESSIVE ROCK SONG EV//////////ER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BTW HOWE is pronounced HOW ! The song is essentially WAR & PEACE. On second listen you can track how it BUILDS from a call for war to preparing & gathering of troops for conflict (with a moment of self-reflection) that then leads towards marching into battle which intensifies until culminating in victory leading into the aftermath and the realization that war is futile and that hopefully the wisdom of peace & enlightenment will someday prevail. |||||||Now you're READY for their previous EPIC Conceptual Album "TALES from TOPOGRAPHIC OCEANS" SIDE 1 - 4 chronologically! beginning with The Revealing Science of God!
Sherman Hemsley's favorite band.
This song is a Masterpiece!!! The whole album, "Relayer," by Yes is a Masterpiece!!! About War and Peace speaks volumes of Hope! Steve Howe( How) on Guitar, Chris Squire on Bass, Alan White on drums and percussion, and Rick Wakeman on keyboards, and Jon Anderson on vocals are just Angelic!!!! Great Reaction!!!
It was Patrick Moraz on keyboards, Rick had left by then.😊
Back in the seventies, C90 cassettes were popular, you could record two vinyl record on them, so four sides of vinyl. A friend gave me a cassette with this album on it. I had to listen a few times to really appreciate it but then this song became one of my favourites.
The song is based on Tolstoy's novel, War and Peace. Keep pronouncing Howie that is your niche. Well done again.
thanks for watching
Although I think Close to the Edge is more profound as an overall arrangement, the Gates has always been my favorite epic from YES. It's almost an inverted version of Close to tbe Edge, where we start with chaos, come out of into melody and order, tben into a calm menancoly in the middle, and then build to a climactic finish, but The Gates of Delirium starts in a place of calm, but perculating with life, and then there are sparse pauses and a build to the first verse. Then tbe piece builds in intensity with each cycle of verses until finally it becomes almost hostile and this takes us right into the middle which is a devasting violent assault that builds to an excruciating climax and then tbe aftermath and joy/sorrow of hope for the new light...I don't know which piece is better, I love them both equally for different reasons I guess.
I love the scene at the end of Return of the King accompanied by Into the West by Annie Lennox but it should have been "Soon". 🙂
Steve Howe. Is pronounced like HOW. The greatest prog guitarist in the world
This music, and that of Pink Floyd and going back to the Beatles was the product of a far better educational system. Now, many of the British young people can hardly hold a conversation. Also, we were exposed to,a,far greater variety of music styles, now it’s all the same with a moronic boom, boom, boom beat on everything. We also EXPLORED different music styles, now they just accept what they are fed. Very sad.
SH.... SH..... SH
Not another song on the planet like Gates
