Rick Wakeman said in an interview, and I'm paraphrasing, that Yes will probably be around after all of the original members are gone. Different musicians but still Yes. I nominate The Band Geeks.
Yes seen that on my cell phone Google news feed ....seen these guy video a few days before that announcement.... Shown one video of the original vocalist with these guys...got to be stoked playing for jon...
06/24 ....From the '70's, I was suitably impressed by this group !! The Female vocalist had the quality and Clarity of voice ( required ) for the lyrics of a Yes song....BUT, she " ain't " no Jon Anderson... I am curious - Wonder why she was not included, Or; if she just had other plans !!
@@jimbo029Her voice is very apparent on Jon and the Band Geeks cd. In the last approximately 40 seconds of MAKE IT RIGHT her voice reaches the stratosphere !
I thought that for the first couple of years I knew of them- Fragile and the the mind blowing Close to the Edge. In the summer of 1974, the band came to a ‘big city’ fairly close by. When I got to the show, I realized I wasn’t alone! Not by a long shot! And everyone around me knew ALL the lyrics to every song! Well, except for “Tales…”. Then, Rick didn’t know it all that well, either. It was at my first live Yes show that I heard about the first two albums. They were seriously difficult to obtain as that city became a HUGE Yes town. It was a blessing and a curse because before that show, I assumed I was the band’s only fan, afterwords, I had to share them- which made me feel like I belonged to a movement- but lost my superiority complex, without peer, as their ONLY fan.
You guys must already know how happy this makes people. But in case you didn’t get the memo: this is amazing! I really really really love it! Thank you. You’ve made a happy man very old!
Its beautiful how the universe works. There are millions of people who could hear this piece of music and never understand why it can bring millions of other people to tears at the pure joy of hearing sound arranged in those specific patterns. And somewhere someone else is saying the same thing about something else that would go six feet over my head.
I'm 63. This is part of the soundtrack of my youth, truly the best days of my life. I've watched this a dozen times and have yet to make it through once without choking up. Emotion revealed...
And as I understand how RUclips works. If you sound to much like the original track there is copyright issues. That’s why there HAS TO BE some differences . Otherwise I think they would nail this song to a T. Although this is an amazing version.
@@timothyirwin8974 I believe it is. A Rickenbacker 4001s model. Same as Chris used. You can tell by the dots instead of the shark fins on the fretboard. I believe he mentions it in his bass collection video (Richie, that is).
Actually some of the best melodic movement in music written in the second half of the 20th century. Some stunning passages in that song. Very well performed. Bravo!
Over 50 years listening to this..Many many time, hundreds, possibly more. And then Band Geek comes along and blows it out of the water. Thanks, love it. Gives me great pleasure and joy. And I can see you enjoy it too. Which is more than good.
Once again. Richie and the Bandgeeks bring all the emotion of that soaring song to life, the sound effects are duplicated to a tee. As usual. Can’t be surprised anymore. Bravissimo again.
There is a reason nobody tries to cover these songs. The songs were created by 5 of the most talented musicians of the era, or any era. Nailing it blows my mind! In fact, dare I say it, your version has just enough of a "harder" feel to it that is gives it a bit more energy (as if that is possible) without taking away any of the beauty of this song. One of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed. Even grumpy C Squire (who I have met) would have loved it.
It's the best cover of a prog classic song I've heard with the exception of Awaken by Todmobile featuring Jon Anderson on vocals. Awaken actually improves on the original, though, while this is a masterful copy. Although they all nail their parts, the guitarist is the MVP.
My god this song throws me nostalgicly back in time 48 years. To my room as a 15 y/o boy, shy, insecure, full of questions and uncertainties listening to the beautiful music of Yes. And now the Band Geek guys hit me again and brought me to tears looking back and thinking over my life so far. That says it all: you guys nailed it (again) with this cover. Thnx!
My dad was gone in ‘71. My father and mother gave my brothers and I guitar lessons. Mom bought me (to share, as we didn’t have much) a Silvertone acoustic guitar (which, among others, I really wish I still had) and I used to pick notes along with this great song! Fairly loudly, I may add. Mom was so cool. My brothers, myself and & a couple of friends formed a band. We covered (~) Yes, Jethro Tull, Deep Purple, James Gang & ZZ Top tunes. I listened to CTTE so many times, I lost count many many years ago. This song is timeless. Thank you Band Geeks. Excellent cover!
Same here, pal. It was 1972, I was 15/16 then. I'm and 65 now and still have shivers and tears in my eyes every single time I listen to this song - my favorite and the most beautiful Yes song ever.
Willie, you were born at the right time. Me, a bit too early. My 15 yr old experience was hearing the Beatles DAY IN THE LIFE for the first time in my boarding school dorm room. I was already in and out of the music major programme at college when i finally "got" this song; a little older, a little more jaded. Stil love it, though.
The song I loved the most until they wrote Awaken. Greatest crescendos they ever wrote. Wakeman's Mellotron orchestrations were phenominal and the Taurus bass pedals just killed it.Saw this with the classic lineup many many times You people did a a wonderful job as always. Thank you!
Rick- PLEASE tell all the guys and Anne-Marie for ME, 64- yr.-old Mike who saw Yes as my very first concert when I was 15, 1975 before the round stage, the entire New Haven Coliseum filled with aromatic smoke, haha, Green Lasers and the most INTENSE experience I've ever... Experienced!... After that concert I bought a guitar and I'm still playing today almost 50 years later... TELL them ALL for me, that You and THEM just made me feel YOUNG again, watching "And You and I"... I don't know what ELSE to SAY, except, YOU guys are effing INCREDIBLE!!
THAT is how it's done! I was fortunate in my life to have seen this song played live for 1980 Drama tour, 1984 90125 tour, 1989 ABWH tour, 1991 Union tour, 1999 Ladder tour, and finally at Madison Square Garden in 2004 for the 35th Anniversary tour, where it received a 5 minute long standing ovation. This is a special song, one might say immersive and transcendent. It takes you on a journey and reminds you each time of the immense power of music. I salute this ensemble who have done this song the justice it deserves and recognize their outstanding talents. I doubt Jon Anderson himself could find a single flaw in that performance. So glad the YT algorithm treated me to this today!
You all are not Yes but somehow, someway you all took me back to a Yes that I thought I would never hear again. It's like seeing someone you thought was dead, living once again. I know that makes no sense but what you've put together is beyond words. It's perfection. And I might add that I'm a hardcore Jon fan that feels he just can't be replaced because of the uniqueness he brings but your vocals here sit so well with me and capture an innocence that Jon brought. Thank you for this and taking me a to a place I've missed.
Beautiful job by the guitarist at 4:47 playing that emotional Leslie keyboard solo with octaves on the guitar. This is actually the way I wish Yes played it live but they never played it like this. Thank you for rocking it, amazing job and I am super grateful! After I wrote this I see that it's the "most replayed" part of the video which is saying a lot!
Absolutely amazing as always!! I’m always not sure what to be more impressed with when watching your videos, that you’re able to learn and play all these insanely complex songs, or… that someone actually wrote them in the first place. You guys are incredible, but Jesus Christ Yes was in a different universe when writing this.
The 12 string was perfectly tuned and the person playing it was a killer axe man...Anyone playing YES is an angel to me...THE greatest prog band... The tempo was PERFECT!
That was amazing! Looks like Andy was having a blast! Everything was so spot on! Keys, bass, drums, and the 12 string harmonics were so perfect! Thanks!
I watched this again and the breathtakingly superb details of every musician is astonishing. Thank You again and kudos to everyone who put in the effort to learn and rehearse such a great song. A great talented bunch, all of you!
I seen Yes in 2008 in Dublin .. Tribute singer in for Jon ..and Ricks son Oliver on keys ...Steve Chris ( RIP ) and Alan ( RIP) were there ...we gave em a 10 minute standing ovation for And you and I ....Chris had to ask us to sit down !...this was as good ...well done Band Geeks
Revisiting this and still moved at how you capture this extraordinary piece of music so completely - I have to smile that it takes two keyboard players at times to capture one Rick Wakeman! I met him a short while ago as he lives in my area - he loves dogs and I have one so we chatted about dogs for quite some time with my partner and his! Great and witty guy!
TOOOO GOOD!! With the excellent vocals in the band, you really must record the opening chant of 'The Revealing Science of God'. from Topographic Oceans. Oh heck, just do the whole song!
Superlative. Simply fantastic musicianship. Blown away. The original Yes bandmates should be smiling down on this immaculate cover. Especially Chris Squire.
Absolutely unreal covers of Yes!!! Fortunate to see ORIGINAL YES 3 times, once with Canadian lead singer these guys bring me back to the wonderful sound of Original YES!!!!!!✌
Making a cover of YES is like telling everyone, "Yeah, we are some of the best musicians in the world," but after covering the complete Close to the Edge album, there's no need to say anything more. You are magnificent!
Love the respect that Richie, Andy A and Andy G have for each other. The way they were watching Andy G play the acoustic intro. It's awesome to have good friends!!!!!!
Nossa.... isso é muito emocionante.... pouco consigo digitar... essa canção faz parte da minha história... em 1979 casei com a mulher mais incrível que conheci. Essa maravilha de música ressoou dentro da igreja. Eu com 16 anos, ela com 19 anos (faleceu em 1986), grávida da minha querida filha. Enfim.... lindo isso tudo
This rendition gives me chills on every inch of my body..I've been listening to and watching Yes since 1972, you guys are just amazing!! No words, Thank you..
Nothing I don't absolutely LOVE about this! Bringing me back to being enveloped in beautiful melodic rhythms & sounds at The Spectrum in Philly. The fist bump # 9:26 between Andy & Richie proves how much you guys love it as well! Ann Marie & all of you are OUTSTANDING!!!

I agree !
Me too...
This is why Jon Anderson picked the Band Geeks as his band for his recent US tour. Fantastic!

I am curious - Wonder why she was not included, Or; if she just had other plans !!
@@jimbo029 She did join them on stage at NJPAC on the first tour.
@@jimbo029Her voice is very apparent on Jon and the Band Geeks cd. In the last approximately 40 seconds of MAKE IT RIGHT her voice reaches the stratosphere !
I've known Yes for 50 years, and I always thought only 5 people on earth could play this music. I was wrong. Super.
singer is a mistake --but I feel that way about all of em except maybe Benoit
I agree. She's a few octaves above Jon Anderson but a great cover indeed. Steve Howe got nothing on the 12 stringer here. 👍
I thought that for the first couple of years I knew of them- Fragile and the the mind blowing Close to the Edge. In the summer of 1974, the band came to a ‘big city’ fairly close by.

I feel otherwise. Her voice made these classics sound new and fresh to me. I fell in love all over again
I totally agree these guys are so special totally blown away with Anderson this is the new Yes ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ the future begins YES indeed
Only one word: Extraordinary!
Someone keeps cutting onions when I listen to this song. It's beautiful whether it's played by Yes or the Band Geeks.
One of the Top 5 cover bands in the history of cover bands.
And it's not just one band that they cover.... everything from Wilson Phillips to Black Sabbath to Alanis...
Totally agree
the FIRST
THE TOP! And now everybody knows
Band Geeks number 1
Well done as usual...thanks for the music , and for the Yes 😅 ❤
You guys must already know how happy this makes people. But in case you didn’t get the memo: this is amazing! I really really really love it! Thank you. You’ve made a happy man very old!
I’m a HUGE fan girl!!!
Yea… absolutely brilliant, the fist bump at the end made me laugh!

Well said.
Ann Marie's voice is just perfect for Jon Anderson's work. I love it so much.
AND ... she is SO CUTE!
Great voice indeed!
Yes she has a sweet voice. She is beautiful too.
And as I understand how RUclips works. If you sound to much like the original track there is copyright issues. That’s why there HAS TO BE some differences . Otherwise I think they would nail this song to a T. Although this is an amazing version.
She is the only person that sings yes songs that doesn’t make me think of how they sing differently from Jon Anderson. Her voice just sounds right.
One of my favorite Yes songs. You play fantastically well and Ann Marie's voice is superb. This is how to make a grown man cry
Wow....Mr. Squire is smiling down from heaven! Thanks for all the hours of practice that must of taken.
Are they playing the same bass played by Squire?
@@timothyirwin8974 I believe it is. A Rickenbacker 4001s model. Same as Chris used. You can tell by the dots instead of the shark fins on the fretboard. I believe he mentions it in his bass collection video (Richie, that is).
This lady sings sooo spot on !!! A W E S O M E GUYS !
It's great to see the younger generation love the same music as I do. It shows that it will live on forever.
Made my day and my day just began. This is the song -- as a 13 year old -- that made me 'see' music for the first time. Kudos.
I was also 13 when I first heard Close to the edge album. My head exploded... I was really alive now.
Andy and Richie's first bump was exactly how I felt!
Actually some of the best melodic movement in music written in the second half of the 20th century. Some stunning passages in that song. Very well performed. Bravo!
Brings a certain calmness to a day. Thank you!
I don't care how old this 'thread' gets - these peeps are friggin' awesome. I can't find the proper words right now to describe how good this is! 💥!
Over 50 years listening to this..Many many time, hundreds, possibly more. And then Band Geek comes along and blows it out of the water. Thanks, love it. Gives me great pleasure and joy. And I can see you enjoy it too. Which is more than good.
Impeccable
Once again. Richie and the Bandgeeks bring all the emotion of that soaring song to life, the sound effects are duplicated to a tee. As usual. Can’t be surprised anymore. Bravissimo again.
A LOT of talent in this video. You guys never disappoint and never fail to amaze!
This is an astounding triumph. As always, the work you did to get to this point is evident. Thank you.
I just got the shivers!! Seriously
Amazing. Bravo EXCELLENT! Her voice is so adorable and beautiful!!

For the 6 of you to do this song in one take, with this attention to detail, is absolutely amazing! Bravo!
this is incredible. brought tears to my eyes to hear such an incredible song covered that well. just beautiful !!
It's the best cover of a prog classic song I've heard with the exception of Awaken by Todmobile featuring Jon Anderson on vocals. Awaken actually improves on the original, though, while this is a masterful copy. Although they all nail their parts, the guitarist is the MVP.
Made me cry too
Andy saying the "okay" at the start... *chef's kiss* Fantastic job all around!
OK!
And Richie's reaction haha
The complexity of Yes remains unsurpassed. You made me a happy man today. Exceptional...
I see Band Geeks doing Yes ... I click Like ... I click Play ... I enjoy
Watching all of the world…..🌎……watching us go by. ❤️👍
Stunning tribute to one of the greatest songs ever written. That bass and heavenly vocals.
My god this song throws me nostalgicly back in time 48 years. To my room as a 15 y/o boy, shy, insecure, full of questions and uncertainties listening to the beautiful music of Yes. And now the Band Geek guys hit me again and brought me to tears looking back and thinking over my life so far. That says it all: you guys nailed it (again) with this cover. Thnx!
Me too friend...but now (at 64) can I play it loud without Dad telling me to "turn that shit down!"
My dad was gone in ‘71. My father and mother gave my brothers and I guitar lessons. Mom bought me (to share, as we didn’t have much) a Silvertone acoustic guitar (which, among others, I really wish I still had) and I used to pick notes along with this great song!

Yes, the Taurus pedal. I saw them in San Jose back in 2004-ish, and the sound made my lungs expand and contract involuntarily. I was in the 6th row.
@@alexandercalder2143 Squire standing on one leg playing bass and the pedals made for what he described as bombastic sounds

Well Gentlemen, (and Lady) if you came to Australia I'd pay to see you. Lovely.
Awwwwwesooooommmme. One of the best cover bands around. Every member a virtuoso.
Awesome! I could listen to Ann Marie all day.
They have taken on one of the greatest songs ever written and done it so very proudly.
Doesn’t get more positive then YES!
the absolute best and you and i I have ever heard amazing thank you for all that painstaking attention to detail and flawless execution
Great job by everyone. Just amazing version of this song. 👍👍🇨🇦
Outstanding, beautiful, flawless.......thank you.
Brings me back to my youth. Thank you all for your good work!
wish I had more thumbs to put up!!!!! Bravo!!!

Tonight in Rochester 💚🎸
Finally, the opening acoustic guitar part is played like the album. Even Steve never plays it that way anymore. Thank You.
As a YES fan, you definitely did this justice
My jaw is on the floor---BRAVO!!!
May I add that the bass sounded spectacular? The entire band too of course.
I often wondered if the music of my age would be carried forward. The Mozart, Bach, Beethoven of my generation. This gives me hope. Thanks Richie.
Thank you for performing this wonderful song so beautifully. Very uplifting and dare I say; spiritual.
You all are not Yes but somehow, someway you all took me back to a Yes that I thought I would never hear again. It's like seeing someone you thought was dead, living once again.

OUTSTANDING!!!!!!! It took alot of ambition and talent from all of you to take on such a masterpiece. BROVO.
Love me some Ann Marie!
Absolutely amazing as always!! I’m always not sure what to be more impressed with when watching your videos, that you’re able to learn and play all these insanely complex songs, or… that someone actually wrote them in the first place. You guys are incredible, but Jesus Christ Yes was in a different universe when writing this.
The 12 string was perfectly tuned and the person playing it was a killer axe man...Anyone playing YES is an angel to me...THE greatest prog band... The tempo was PERFECT!
See you at the Ryman Auditorium July 24, 2024. Can’t wait.
WOW I MEAN WOW I'm 68 now I was 19 when I went to see Yes in Phoenix ,that was the Great Awakening for me lll Fantastic Job 🌹
Outstanding Geeks! Every note more delicious than the next! Gratzie!
prego
ASTONISHING RENDITION!
Other than the higher pitch of the lead vocal, you can close your eyes and wouldn't know it's not Yes.
Ann Marie is IT. Both amazing and beautiful. What an incredible voice. Love the Band Geeks.
A prime example that yes will never die
The Best cover of any song I’ve ever heard!
That is just what these guys do.
Yes, wonderful. Though I'd say their cover of roundabout edges it...
Excellent cover...
Exceptional … thanks for a walk down memory lane !!! 😎
YESS!!!! I love this shit! my favourite Yes choon! Cheers!!!
That was amazing! Looks like Andy was having a blast! Everything was so spot on! Keys, bass, drums, and the 12 string harmonics were so perfect! Thanks!
Geeks YES that was frickin awesome
Thank You, Band Geek for covering one of my favorite songs. The devotion and talent required to perform this great song is epic. Bravo to everyone!
I watched this again and the breathtakingly superb details of every musician is astonishing. Thank You again and kudos to everyone who put in the effort to learn and rehearse such a great song. A great talented bunch, all of you!
It’s not a lie to say how much better you all are compared to the band calling itself YES today. Dramatically better.
I ❤ you, guys! You made me cry! It's a good emotion of good times lived! Thank you, indeed! 💜 🎶
I live in Los Angeles area. I would love to see you guys as a yes tribute band do a concert. Do you tour near LA
I seen Yes in 2008 in Dublin ..
Tribute singer in for Jon ..and Ricks son Oliver on keys ...Steve Chris ( RIP ) and Alan ( RIP) were there ...we gave em a 10 minute standing ovation for And you and I ....Chris had to ask us to sit down !...this was as good ...well done Band Geeks

I best cover that i’ve ever seen.
Agreed. Although I also love Awaken by Todmobile with Jon Anderson.
TOOOO GOOD!! With the excellent vocals in the band, you really must record the opening chant of 'The Revealing Science of God'. from Topographic Oceans. Oh heck, just do the whole song!
THIS MUST HAPPEN
WHAT THEY SAID
Oh I fucking love this, the youth today won't probably appreciate this, but thanks for keeping it alive, love it
Absolutely wonderful, incredible, perfect, superlative, masterful, marvellous, magnificent, sublime, tremendous.
Infact really quite delightful.
Paul J Night did you like it? 🤪🤪🤪
Superlative. Simply fantastic musicianship. Blown away. The original Yes bandmates should be smiling down on this immaculate cover. Especially Chris Squire.
Absolutely unreal covers of Yes!!! Fortunate to see ORIGINAL YES 3 times, once with Canadian lead singer these guys bring me back to the wonderful sound of Original YES!!!!!!✌
Ann Marie has such a beautiful voice and her vibrato is perfection.
All the players are first class.
"Don't you know that you are all Gods"
What a Masterpiece of Perfection and Illumination!
I am Speechless. Thank YOU! SO MUCH!
Making a cover of YES is like telling everyone, "Yeah, we are some of the best musicians in the world," but after covering the complete Close to the Edge album, there's no need to say anything more. You are magnificent!

Ann Marie’s voice sits perfectly within the sounds of YES. Another perfect rendition
I love Ann Marie singing. And playing and ... everything. 💖🌷🙏
Kisses from Brazil 😙
This rendition gives me chills on every inch of my body..I've been listening to and watching Yes since 1972, you guys are just amazing!! No words, Thank you..
Golly, this is so good!
Nothing I don't absolutely LOVE about this! Bringing me back to being enveloped in beautiful melodic rhythms & sounds at The Spectrum in Philly. The fist bump # 9:26 between Andy & Richie proves how much you guys love it as well! Ann Marie & all of you are OUTSTANDING!!!
Bravo 👏
Breath taking
I CAN'T WAIT for the collab with Jon Anderson!
09:25 the fist bump says it all about the rhythm section timing in that previous segment. Sublime throughout. I'm blown away - as usual!
F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C.
!!!
THAT MADE ME CRY!😭😭😭❤️🙏🏼 That was a very special and also poignant part in my life at the time.
I hear a tour with Jon is in the works playing all the epics.
