Jon And Vangelis - I'll Find My Way Home (1981)

- Опубликовано: 21 июл 2009
- Jon & Vangelis is the collaborative effort between the singer Jon Anderson (better known as lead vocalist of the British progressive rock band Yes), and the Greek synthesizer musician Vangelis. Together they released a number of successful albums in the 1980s.
The two artists probably met in the progressive rock scene of London in the 1970s. Vangelis reputedly was to join Anderson in Yes, replacing Rick Wakeman as keyboardist, but this never came to fruition. Nevertheless, Jon contributed vocals to Vangelis' Heaven and Hell (1975), harp to Opera Sauvage (1979), and vocals to See You Later (1980).
The two embarked on a series of albums between 1979 and 1991, producing the major hits "I Hear You Now" (a UK No. 8) and "I'll Find My Way Home". Anderson wrote the lyrics, and Vangelis composed the music. This was during one of Vangelis' most productive periods, and a high level of experimentation is evident on some of their tracks.

Your not wrong there
Takes me away from the trash that they call music today! xx
So true
THANKYOU !
Also To many Simon Cowell Auto Tuned Singers .Now .These boys play real music .
Ricky J.P. Me too
There's TONS of great music out there. Maybe more than ever before, as it's easier to record for a cheap buck.
Music hasn't become worse. You guys have become worse at finding it.
Jon Anderson could sing your phone book and it would be uplifting and magical. Much respect.
so true!
And we would listen to the end,it would be great to hear him sing about Mr,and Mrs Zzzzzaloquitch.
Saw him singing in Liverpool several years ago. More amazing than you can imagine. The voice is BEAUTIFUL.
I've seen Yes five times, three times with Jon Anderson. Great singer but clearly bullshitting guitar wise :)
They did have Steve Howe for that. Steve couldn't write "Hark through dark ties which tunnel us out of sane existance" or, "as frriction spans the spirits mass ascending to redeem" though. I think jon just wanted something to do with his hands. Said it helped his rhythm. Sounds a bit rude. Are you that Bill Bailey.?
Show this song to anyone who claims electronic music has no soul. Brought tears to my eyes.
+Lemmy Kilmister Lemmy? : ) A big fan of metal and Motorhead, but yes, this song did just that to me. Suddenly I was 12 again, in my bedroom looking out over our snowy garden, my parents young again and full of life and not the old age pain they are in now. : '(
+Lemmy Kilmister Most of the people who'd say that wouldn't even recognise amazing stuff like this as electronic music! (It'd just be 'old' music to them) Todays overproduced drivel is just crammed down their throats. Thankfully, a lot of them reject it but it also leaves them with no appreciation for stuff like this.
+Lemmy Kilmister yeah but its the mix of organic voice and electronic instrumentation that lend it that little bit of extra special!
+Lemmy Kilmister Friends of MR CAIRO
Thought you was ded!
This might be years old but remains timeless...absolutely awesome
no matter what happens in my life,i will always find my way home
Jon Anderson sings like an angel. Vangelis is a very talented musician himself. Together these two incredibly talented men make an explosive combination. Pop at its highest level.
Vangelis was a talented musician. He died earlier this year. RIP
Jon Anderson, lead singer of YES, and Vangelis - both par excellence performers.
40yrs ago I worked for Vangelis. I journeyed with him to Athens to see his father he had not seen for 10+yrs.. What a wonderful experience that was. . So, this not about me.. But to pay tribute to this incredible man and his music.. All of it... Still strong... in the heart and mind of my kids too.. Wish I could say Hello .. Again & again & again.. & again..
I could listen to just Vangellis for the rest of my life and be completely happy!
this song is absolutley , fantasticly ,utterly brilliant. there are many beautiful songs out there and i have my favourets, THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURETS. ABSOLUTLY BRILLIANT.
Nach über dreißig Jahren ergreift mich diese Musik immer noch!!! Einfach nur toll!!!!
This was in the charts when I had my first baby and even now when I hear it it reminds me of my baby boy who is now 32 :)
beautiful song
Happy 40th
Beautiful Song 🎵 Love Love Love 💜
Beautiful
I'd just passed my driving test about the time this song was in the charts, my boss had a brand new Opel Manta with an upgraded Pioneer stereo, he lent me the car for a weekend and this was the first song I ever heard on a decent sound system .... happy days , still love it now ,, :)
A very trusting and generous boss!!!! The Manta was a lovely motor.....
Jon Anderson had such perfect pitch and timbre. I loved this sound!
i loved this song when i was a child. 3years ago i still tried to find this song and today... i found it and also found the movie where was this beautiful song - the challengers💖 im so happy
this music is such a pleasure to listen too never gets old.
Nagranie które słucham od 35 lat i za każdym razem przechodzą mnie dreszcze.
wooow what a fabulous song this is...it seeps in your soul so magically ...totally phenomenal piece of vangelis
This is one of those songs that brings me right back to my childhood. I still love this song very much.
Angelic voice.....and piano.......and lyrics. Ahhhhh. Feel better now!
Marvellous...the song growing and growing...with real philosophically charged lyrics and the angelic voice of Jon...one of music' s real moments..
Such an uplifting and spiritual song. Adore it.
omg i was just 13yrs old back then and it sounded good in 1981 and still does in August 9 2016
Nothing like the 80's music
ALWAYS DEEPLY LOVED & APPRECIATED VANGELIS.HE WAS MY FAVOURITE ARTIST FOR A LONG TIME & JON ANDERSONS VOICE AS A FRIEND QUOTED IS LIKE AN ANGELS.
Vangelis ist für mich der beste Musiker der elektronischen Musik des 20. Jahrhunderts, ich kenne alles von ihm und - blöd gesagt - erstarre ich in Ehrfurcht vor seinem Werk. Ich liebe die Musik von Vangelis, von den 70ern bis heute. RIP, Mein lieber Freund Vangelis, ich werde Dich niemals vergessen . Versprochen!!!!
The 80,s were classic just like this song! What an era it was
Two wonderful musicians who , with this song, can make the strongest of men cry!!
A truly wonderful song.
Wow, this song is just simply outstanding. It is wonderful & beautiful - and takes me back to my childhood.
+Aus80sRockRadio why dont we have songs like these nowadays...where has all the good music lost ??
+Aamir Afzal Unfornately all the good music has already been written and performed, prior to 1990 mainly. Nothing now or in the future can compare to that wonderful era of the 80's.
@@aus80srockradio94 Don Williams said that back in the 80s.
@@nannerl6243 Who is Don W?
@@aus80srockradio94 He was a country singer here is one of his biggest hits, ruclips.net/video/-nXwBuESP0E/видео.html
Outstanding. YES is my all time favorite band and type of music. However, the years of 1979-1981 during Jon's and Vangelis collaboration are very special and magical.
Vangelis is a Genius, his creations touch souls
lief damals in der Musikbox bei uns in der Kneipe rauf und runter.
Had this on a 45 record but wore it to bits!! Must find my way home!
This song is not played enough the sentiments within the lyrics are amazing and beautiful.
All of a sudden I´m an akward 13´year old boy at my first school dance again! Ahh!! Thanks for this trip down memory lane! :)
A magical voice!!!
In times of utter despair, this song saved my life. Many times. I am not alone and I will find my way home, somehow.
God I am so in love with Jon Anderson even now at 72 he still has charisma !!!!!!
two brillant musicians, how many of todays 'musicians' will have this effect in 35 years time.
I have always loved this
Me too Sue xx
I loved Yes and I loved this when it first came out .Where has all the good music gone over the last three decades ... or is it just that I'm getting old,damn it lol .
i could play this every day and never get fed up with it
this one song that people will still remember in 50 years time.
this song gives me goose pimples classic
Gives me goosepimples also, Darren. I even asked my doctor what causes the phenomena.

Two genius souls !! They live forever in my heart! They rearage my BRAIN! Glory both of them!
Whenever I have a drink I feel compelled to play this it's like a magnet to me.
it stirs strange haunting rhythms.... I mourn what has passed and feel uplifted at the same time
I am at home and drunk again so have to play this.
It's my 'go to song' when slightly pissed, love it, love it, love it. Cheers
I have had a drink so have to play it again.
me too
10,000 people have found their way home. Good for them!
Back in 1982 when I was doing year 10 work experience this was always on the radio. I used to listen to it on my walkman over and over on my 2km walk home every night. Great memories, fucking brilliant song.
My sun shall rise in the east....Somehow I'll find my way home....Wonderful, what an optimism immensely positive...
listening to this song I can almost smell my youth. What a lovely tune from a more gentle time in my life. If only more people could feel this song.
When the time come's i'm going out to this one.:)
The best song ever love it!
Absolut geniale Mucke, was war das noch für eine geile Zeit!!! Als das Ding raus kam, war ich 18! Und heute...........50 Jahre isser jetzt alt! Aber die Mucke von früher werde ich immer hören und nen flotten Schwung in der Hüfte haben.
Fires me instantly back to the year I started work... happy carefree times accompanied by great tunes
One of the most Beautifull tunes ever!
Wonderful memories, sometimes it's easy to forget the partnership of Jon and Vangelis and the music they recorded... this being one such example... fond memories of a time when loved one's were still with us and we were young and often care-free. This album was interesting because the title track was an epic and in it was a fantastic lilting piano break which i still reckon has never been bettered with Anderson's vocals.
This and the Band YES, the most beautiful, complete, well performed and creative music of all times, as a Band . LOve. João
I was eight too and I wish to get back to 81-85 even just for a little while,even so it was a bad time to live in my country and most of the music was only available on the radio.
This song wil stay in my heart forever anyway :)
IJon told in an interview, that he joined Vangelis and it took them two hours to compose this incredible piece of music. Two weeks later it was a world wide smash-hit!
Incredible!
Reminds me of my pops... Who Thank God introduced me and my sister to this beautiful music back in the 80's when I was a young girl... Im 40 now, my dad sadly passed in 1990.. When I want to feel my dads very essence I listen to Vangelis and I smile for the memories that I have of him...And Vangelis music transports me back to being a child holding my dad's hand... Smiling ! x
hi abi, Ive lost my dad too- 2009- miss him more than ever- this song has no bearing on that, but your words really moved me...keep smiling x
Im sorry for your loss my friend... I hope you still have your smile.... :) x
Abi dilemma I lost my dad a long time ago it still hurts but I smile and think of him and its just that bit better hope you do the same x
Thank you Stue. :) X
Abi dilemma no problem keep smiling x
He has such a lovely voice. I met him once and he was a top, top bloke.
Totally timeless. Sounds as fresh as ever.
I get goose pimples when I hear this.

+PNGPJS I don't know. That's up to them. I can't vouch for everyone else
+Paul Buttrill

+Paul Buttrill Agreed. Can't think of a single tune since the end of the 90s that gives me goose pimples- love the 80s- want to go back. Hate the empty music of today.

+Dawn Sutton
Good.
+David Carpenter Well, don't beat about the bush David, come out and say what you really think! Peace
I was 8 when this was out. I wanted to marry Adam Ant. good times!!!
+Jean Kavanagh goose bumps for me dawn ,, awsome!!
+Dawn Sutton you smoke pot ? i do
If this doesn't take your breath away, you're full of something most normal folk clearly don't need. It's a great composition regardless of one's musical tastes. Doesn't matter what they say.
einer der besten Titel der 80,er unerreichbar und genial gemacht, ich liebe diesen Song der könnte niemals aufhören. Weltklasse. Danke
Old old Jon Anderson devotee. Never saw till now and I’m crying. We had no access like this but it so closely matches what I imagined and more.
Linda, linda, linda...algumas músicas tem o dom de tocar nosso íntimo...transcendental!
Capodopera!
such a fantastic song,love it
it amazes me........I was 24 when this came out........haven't heard it for years and years, but I still know every word......great track
Absolutely top 24 carat gold song!! Wow, I've not heard this in over 25 years, probably more!! Today's acts should bow their heads in shame, calling their music music, as all it is is noise. This is how it should be done!!
YEA, RAP MUSIC IS THE WORST!
Awesome, absolutely bloody awesome! The whole Friends of Mr Cairo, is brilliant, I play more than any other music I have!!
"I get goose pimples when I hear this." Me too pal, me too! Actually the all-time billboard charts worldwide should be this song. So wonderful. So calming...
classic song by Jon Anderson out of the band free
Lol haaa
My beloved nanny used to sing this to me when I was a kid! Many happy memories!
I was in Paris in '83 and met some girls at a café who wanted to know/understand the lyrics to this song. I went back their place and was introduced to an amazing, memorable piece of music..
Que dúo, que pareja. la mezcla perfecta. Una voz maravillosa e increíble de Jon y una musicalización notable de don Vangelis. Gracias por tan lindos temas.
Bliss...of a very high order...
This was played at my dear friend Gary Barratt's funeral. RIP Gary still sorely missed and in my thoughts.
that one brought me to tears~~beautiful
Some electronics, great lyrics, good voice, two people. This song has heart, no hype, no smut, no lust, just innocent, beautiful, magical, lyrical - "They don't write (compose) like that anymore."
You ask me where to begin
Am I so lost in my sin
You ask me where did I fall
I'll say I can't tell you when
But if my spirit is lost
How will I find what is near
Don't question I'm not alone
Somehow I'll find my way home
My sun shall rise in the east
So shall my heart be at peace
And if you're asking me when
I'll say it starts at the end
You know your will to be free
Is matched with love secretly
And talk will alter your prayer
Somehow you'll find you are there.
Your friend is close by your side
And speaks in far ancient tongue
A seasons wish will come true
All seasons begin with you
One world we all come from
One world we melt into one
Just hold my hand and we're there
Somehow we're going somewhere
Somehow we're going somewhere
You ask me where to begin
Am I so lost in my sin
You ask me where did I fall
I'll say I can't tell you when
But if my spirit is strong
I know it can't be long
No questions I'm not alone
Somehow I'll find my way home
Somehow I'll find my way home
Somehow I'll find my way home
Somehow I'll find my way home
I was at school when this was in charts back in 1981 😢 boy miss those days
This number brings me back to the begin of the 80's. It gives me a feeling that i am in the youth again. The eighties have more brought perfect music then the time after followed. That was de
most perfect time for the music that was made by de artist themselves.
a very cool tune for those who love 80's music....
Usually save this one for Christmas but in the mood this morning .
me exactly the same :))
Was saving this for New Years but the hell with it.
I don't believe in god's in the sky somewhere....
I do believe in God's right here on Earth, Jon&Vangelis are two of them !
Somehow I'll find my way home. That's worth thinking about and getting lost in this beautifully arranged piece, unique voice and coming from a bloke, impressive, shiny, happy people 80's.
Great memories from the 80's. Fantastic song!!
You can never get tired of listening to this song honestly :)
i have just undergone a large heart op so have lots of time on my hands,somedays i get quite depressed and music pulls me round ,john&van gellis being one AH LIFE CAN BE GOOD WITH MUSIC IN IT
The song my brother always sings on a Friday night after several beers and he is heading home from the pub !!
i grew up on this shit when my father blasted this in his ford cortina 2.0 ghia,,and it grew on me,and now its in my heart,,,,
respect,,,,
great comment!! what a memory!! That car's a classic
Timeless and magical - I agree with these earlier comments. I have this on vinyl and I used to use it to audition turntables at audiophile shops in Boston. The record sounds phenomenal.
This is such a beautiful song. Beautifuly sung, beautiful lyrics, beautifully played music. And happy looking singers too.
I had wandered far from God during my teens, and did some pretty awful things, this song awoke my need and love for God. I pray that my Daughters will find the path back to God
