Aw, Shon!!! Great reaction! I ❤️ how you get it and get into it!!! My reaction: I was driving to work in ‘72 and this song came on the radio….I had to pull over I was SO blown away. I went to the record store to buy the album right after work. Yes has been a favorite ever since. ☮️❤️
Nice
I totally understand!! It's like a gut punch / tear creator - just overwhelming!!
I've been listening to YES for 50 years now and to me they're next level in all their songs Amazing stuff. Any song you try from them will never disappoint.
Mr Chris Squire on bass... Rickenbacker 4001, I believe?
He was a HUGE influence on me in my younger years... one of the reasons why I learned to play the bass myself.
Those LINES!!! 🎸🎶
👍🏾
Ditto
I have always said of Steve Howe: He's the reason I started playing guitar... and he's the reason I stopped.
Saw these guys in concert. Crazy thing is, they can pull songs this complex off in concert with no problem. Amazing band.
Roundabout...Best bass line ever! Has to be on everyones top 10 list.
Please LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE to this channel. It is always amazing to me how this young man gets ALL music. It is so refreshing to see now a days.
Shon, I am so glad you enjoyed YES! As I mentioned before, they have an extensive library of music that I believe will amaze you. I look forward to your journey. ❤
Welcome to "Progressive Rock". Keep your hands and feet inside the car at all times... it's going to be a bumpy ride!! LOL! All of the tempo changes, and super involved instrumentation are hallmarks of Prog-Rock. You'll see a lot of it with bands like Rush, King Crimson, Kansas, Dream Theater and so many more. It's a deep rabbit hole brother.
Yes were some of the most amazing musicians. Creativity off the charts. So precise in their craziness. Prog Rock at its best. FIRE.
Genius musicians creating epic masterpieces. But I’m sure any fan of the original Yes will agree that their greatest and deepest work was Pre-Owner of A Lonely Heart.
Ladies and gentlemen Chris Squire and Yes the greatest show on earth. Wonderful reaction to a song I've been dancing to for 52yrs. Enjoy your Yes journey. A song called Yours Is No Disgrace is a song for the Vietnam vets.🙏🍁
Ditto 😊
Their biggest commercial hit was Owner of a lonely heart.
You've just fallen into the YES rabbit hole. It's impossible to escape now. "Yours Is No Disgrace" "Close To The Edge" "Sound Chaser" "Awaken" Be ready. Be very ready.
I remember I already loved this song, when it just came out. I was 16 years old then. Awesome! 🎶🎶🎶😍🎸🎸
When musicians were free, before the record companies took total control. Now all we have is crap.
Yes are amazing, I saw them live and they were astounding. Another great reaction to the fantastic music of my youth. It is wonderful to see you enjoy this as much as I do even 50 years later.
It sounds like a modern song, it never aged
Chris Squire was one of the greatest Bass players ever,
and the founder of Yes.
"One of the?" 😄 He's the one
YES IS THE BEST BAND EVER!! Dig deeper! You’ll love it…promise! ☮️❤️
Saw YES first in 71 at 15 years old and that life changing experience made me an instant YES fanatic! Intricate, virtuoso and highly imaginative musicians here with the first commercially successful song because their record company sent an 3 mins. edited version to the radio stations but 70'sYES were never mainstream or compromised their need to always break ground and progress. ProgRock was known for it's virtuosity, various changes in chords, time signatures, moods, textures & rhythms & YES were THE BEST. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, this AMAZING song is just a BABY-STEP for YES. You've opened up A CAN of BADASS here!!!! This is just scratching the surface of a band that PUSHED the LIMITS of what was creatively possible in the 70's! To find this out then YOU MUST discover more music from these "GREATEST" ROCK musicians of ALL TIME!
Kid, your reactions are priceless! I experienced what you just did over 50 years ago! 🤯Thanks for taking me back...
Ditto 😊
I seem to recall this from years ago, the song is about his commute from his house to the studio in the morning. He was inspired by a traffic circle, not something you see too much of in the US.
its about touring in Scotland, mountains, eagles, lakes and roundabouts
Very happy that you enjoyed this. Nice reaction!
I always enjoy your reactions but this one …1972. 12 years old. Still remember where I was when I heard this song for the first time. I’ve seen them in concert 14 times. I’m 64 and walk my dog to Close to the Edge EVERY day.
I love this story!❤
You cease to amaze me!! This is progressive rock, and I have a happy memory of me and my little brother playing this whole LP over and over while we decorated the Christmas tree one year. He loved music, but died from cancer when he was 24, and I was 25. Thanks for the memory💖
You mean he never ceases to amaze you
@@reality1958 yeah, i thought she was about to diss him. lol.
Love this tune, bought the album when it came out and learned to play this song. Roundabout was written by Steve Howe and singer Jon Anderson while on the road in Scotland. For the song's slower section, Rick Wakeman plays a Minimoog synthesiser and flute sounds on a Mellotron which he said gave the section a "Strawberry Fields mood". Apart from his Martin 00-18 Acoustic Guitar in the intro, Howe plays a 1961 electric Gibson ES-5 Switchmaster throughout the song.
Check out 'I've Seen All Good People'or 'Owner of a Lonley Heart'. Cheers.
It is so cool, watching you appreciate all these classics. It's people like you, that will keep this music alive. Thank you
Yes!!! My favorite band ever!!! Thanks, Shon!!! 👍👍❤️❤️
This came out in high school in man I had to learn that acoustic guitar intro, and so many people did. But the whole thing is a masterpiece obviously and I'm so happy you dug it but I would say to this day, still my absolute favorite part of all this is Chris Squire on the bass guitar. It just blows my mind every time I hear it even now. And I was a pretty good bass player for a while there but this still blows my mind.
It's like going on a musical trip....so many changes.....great groove, great vocals! Love your reaction!
Squire was killer on bass on this the second best album, after Close to the Edge their masterpiece..
The drums stood out when I kept hearing this on the radio as a kid. Such a peculiar rhythm.
Yes, I agree. There's so much going on, I think many people overlook Bill Bruford's contribution. His weird drumming is subtly holding this complex piece together.
Plus, amazing that Roundabout is now over 50 years old!
The very best thing about watching reaction videos like this is seeing the power of music in action, and how it can truly connect us all. Seeing someone new to this music, coming from a whole other generation of music listeners, enjoying this incredible song - over 50 years old - and getting their mind blown just like mine was when this song first came out, well, its a wonderful thing. Shon, I wish you all the best as you discover more great music of all kinds - there is so much out there waiting!
Was on The Continental soundtrack. Also on that soundtrack: Ace Freshley (Kiss) - New York groove.
I’ve seen around about 100 different artists live. I would put their performance in the top 5. Exceptional band.
Oh, yes. From the time musicians were high on something and wanted to take you on a trip with them 😅
To me, it’s a happy song. Hence why it’s the ringtone on my phone. Can’t help but smile when you hear it.
Glad you enjoyed it, man. I loved what one of the guys in Yes (I forget who) said - something like 'Yeah, there are a lot of notes in our songs, and when we play them live, you have to play ALL of them'.
I'll make this simple:
1. Roundabout
2. Yours Is No Disgrace
3. Starship Trooper
4. Siberian Khatru
5. And You And I
6. Close To The Edge
You've heard 1. All the rest are Must Listen YES Masterpieces. Then there's another dozen or so that are also masterpieces, or near-masterpieces. If you start out with those first 6, you will be blown away every time. They are ALL 🔥!
The 1973 LIVE versions of Siberian Khatru & Close To The Edge on YESSONGS are IMHO, improvements!
Considerably tighter.
At that moment, "uh-oh.... uh-oh...." were some of the coolest reaction moments ever :)
Saw Yes back in 1977 at RFK stadium in Washington, DC and again in 2010 on The Pier in Baltimore both times with Peter Frampton. 😎😎😎😎
Moog synthesizer in back of the keyboards. It's so intense if you listen to it on a pair or Altec Voice of the theaters on LOUD so you can feel it in your bones! Can you say Body Rush? I knew you could.
Congratulations! You just discovered YES!!! Welcome aboard my brother 😊
That swell you hear in the intro is an E minor chord on piano, recorded, and then played back in reverse
"Close To The Edge" Shon, you won't regret it.
Loved your reaction to this!! Someties I think I get more excited at the anticipation of your reaction to a really epic song/band than I do to any other reactors!
You are great at this, young man, a total natural. See you at 50K subs & beyond!
I saw them when I was in college. The organ/keyboard player wore a cape like a wizard, which was very appropriate. He was amazing!
YES is the greatest progressive rock band in my opinion. I subscribe to anyone who reacts to them. Loads of greats including "Roundabout", "Awaken", "The Gates of Delirium", "Close to the Edge", "Turn of the Century", "Starship Trooper", "Perpetual Change", "That, That Is", "The Revealing Science of God", "In the Presence of" lots more.
Best bass line of all times. 💯😎
I remember when this first came out, it was one of the first songs over 3-4 min that was soo good, even AM stations played it in it’s entirety !! Just as good over 50 years later !!!
Make sure to check out Yes - I've Seen All Good People. Huge radio hit back in the day :)
I’ve probably watched more reactions to this song than any other. Such a masterpiece. Nothing else sounds quite like it.
Heheh, remembering finding the EXACT spot on the floor to sit in front of the big old Decca Gram "stereo" (ie two speakers) for the sweet spot to get the full stereo effect of the Yes Album. Memories!!! Glad you love it, over 50 years ago, this was prog rock at its best. Even my teachers at my junior school didn't listen to them, but 8 year old me did. Thanks to my bros for my musical education...
The synth and keyboard as of today was not available in 1971. Rick Wakeman plays Hammond organ, grand piano, mini moog, harpsichord, and mellotron. Every new album including artist like Wakeman, George Duke, Brian Eno, Keith Emerson, brought new sounds to us, unheard so far!
You should try some Zappa ... and Gentle Giant!
its physically hard to listen to yes, without a smile or bursting into laughter.insane levels of musicianship mastery.& their diversity is as wide as their imaginations.
Your description was exactly why it's called PROGRESSIVE rock. You loved it!
Shon, I think you would enjoy; The Edgar Winter Band (live) "Frankenstein".
Boy oh boy, this takes me back to my teenage days on "The Blvd" we LOVED this band!!! Lush and beautiful!
Hey man, you certainly cheered up a snowy morning here in Scotland, where the mountains came out of the sky and inspired this track. Love your reaction. 😂
This was one of my first 8 track tapes.
I call YES my 'coffee-card band'... like those punch-cards you get at the coffee shop, _"Buy 5 coffees, get the 6th coffee for free!"_ , I paid to see them 5 times, and the 6th concert was FREE! ;-]
Seriously, it was a free concert in Montreal in the late '90s, sponsored by Budweiser, I think.
Just looked it up...
Concerts Wiki: _YES - June 19, 1998 Island Park, Montreal, QC (Megashow Budrock, with Okoume and Alan Parsons)_
Indeed, you read that correctly, one of the opening acts was Alan Parsons!!! It was an amazing event!
this has been in my playlist since mp3s were invented, in my CDs before that, cassettes before that, and LPs before that. one of my all-time favorites, top 15 without doubt (outside of the entire Zeppelin catalog, which is a completely different list of its own, independent of and coming before all other songs--which start at #2 lol). this band is a major musical influence on countless others. Steve Howe is one of those guitarists on the top-tier lists. he's played some incredible solos in concert. takes your head on a long trip lol.
Hello from Cody Wyoming! You're awesome keep it up😊 all are welcome to the rabbithole of YES, put your seat belt on
This song really hits you with something new at every turn
Yes is quite the progressive rock rabbit hole. Tremendous musicianship and uplifting message. Recommend remastered versions for future reactions. As good as the originals sound, remastered sounds much better. Can hear each individual detail far better.
Yes Fragile was the first compact disc I bought way back in the 80s. Huge fan. Now you've got me thinking of Jethro Tull Shon, which is always good.
Rick Wakeman: synth player, WAY ahead of his time.
Delve deep into the Yes world. Many more delights, all beyond the wildest dreams you can have, await ❤❤ Subscribed based on this. In all seriousness, I’d go straight to Close to the Edge. It’s their 18-minute progressive magnum opus but it’s a song that all humans need to hear, and as soon as possible in their lives ❤
Can you imagine working out with this song
Careful, YES music may change your life 🙂
Hey Man check out the Hall of Fame Concert from 2017 where Yes was inducted and played Roundabout and others with Getty Lee from Rush on Bass😎I am a Musician and in the 70s I played Keyboards when this song cane out in 1972
That opening guitar piece is a classical Spanish Guitar piece. And they took off from there!
So cool that younger people are digging this music. It makes me much more open-minded to music of your generation. Good music is good music. Period. Rock on!
The original band lineup is 5 virtuosos. RIP Chris Squire
This is the best! Great reaction!
I've been jammin to this song since age 11, when it came out. The whole album is great.
The keyboard you are wondering about is a Hammond Organ.
The place he is talking about is Loch Ness.
In Scotland.
Famous for the Loch Ness Monster.
Say YES!!!!
This is my favorite Yes, now you have to do Owner of a Lonely Heart!
Ditto 😊
This is truly a classic, enjoyed the reaction.
I would love to see how you react to the band Triumph. Unbelievable vocalist and head snapping licks. Never Surrender or Fight the good fight . Seriously…I think you will be impressed!
The opening is a "reverse echo". It show's up once more before the song get's groovin'.
You'veen trapped in the loop, bro, I'been hearing this song for 30 plus years and still cant find its end... And I dont want to.
YES
HOLD ON TIGHT, the Yes journey is gonna be some trip
Just the tip of the iceberg.
Keepin' it real as always, love you brother... \m/
Chris Squire's bass.There all masters anyway!!Welcome to the beautiful world of Yes.
I won't be the first or the last to recommend that you listen to the full Close to the Edge album by Yes. It's an experience best had without distractions, eyes closed, and with good headphones. You won't be disappointed!
You HAVE TO listen to the whole album! EPIC!!! 😊♥️✌🏼🎶
Memories, memories, memories!!!
Excellent song! You should listen to Starship Trooper or I've Seen All Good People, both by Yes!
Excellent reaction. It's great to see someone who appreciates the more sophisticated music. I do humbly request that you react the Heart of the Sunrise. I believe that you will see that song as the quintessential musical journey.
The 60s (and into early 70s) provided us w a little talked about clash w (at the time) modern studies of popular music w individualistic and obviously classically trained composers. If there was a vein I'd like to see a reactor travel that would be it. Cause it bleeds over into the 80s and on to now.
**req. Donald Byrd - Places and Spaces.
But there really are so many. Cal Tjader, Leroy Hutson, I. Hayes, R. Ayers (60s? I think so) G. Clinton and were not even talking some of the heavy hitter instrumentalists that gave us repeatedly emulated and sampled sounds we'd come to take for granted.
Tldr - keep it up shon 🗣!
Shon,would you do "Jack & Diane?" The chili dog song! You're awesome!
Greatest Rock Song Ever?????????
Check out some of the live versions of this. The one from 2017 is especially unique as Geddy Lee of Rush plays the bass.
What I'd be curious about is how some of your friends react to some of these songs you've been discovering.
You should explore "Close To The Edge" by Yes.
Life changing. God's music
Yes is one of the best progressive rock bands from the 1970s. Progressive rock is the most interesting music genre. IF you like prog rock, you will get to know Yes very well.
I request "Eli's Coming" by Three Dog Night!!!! It is banger!!!!
