Yes, A Celebration 1969-1979 2DVD set available at Tommygun Video, please see our youtube channel for links, video clips, more details. Footage includes live at QPR 1975, Beat Club 1972, Time & A Word videos, and more rare stuff from the 70s
Jons lyrics are perfectly matched with the music...Intricate, non-linear, abstract, complicated, spiritual, imaginative and difficult to describe. If you have trouble understanding the words, references, symbology and the metaphors then just feeeel the music and you will understand. Each side is deliberately arranged rhythmically and melodically to create specific emotions that truly reflect the storys being expressed. Best if you turn off the lights and turn volume to 11 plus a doobie.
Whart I am saying, DesiDezz, is if you offer up YOUR idea and it is stepped on you'll be perhaps upset that someone else has THAT power to think for yourself.
Also, @ LuisDezz...the meaning of this song is ...ummmm... it is..some things are . (think of Niagara Falls, mountains like the Andes, the Alps, the Rockies)... mere words are not enough to explain. It will come to YOU alone, someday,..and don't tell anyone..or Else!
When Tales was released in the early 70's and I had just gone away to college and at the 'peak' of my LSD years. The combination of the three created moments that will always live deeply in my heart and soul. For examples...I saw the complete Tales Live. under the influence and was so blown away, moved, overwelmed and in awe I beleive i was in tears for most of it. High the Memory Carries On..............TALES is beyond masterpiece!
I am a transcriptionist who is able to take any music and arrange it into high quality professional sheet music.
I have made high quality professional transcriptions of music by Mike Oldfield, Yes and Rick Wakeman amongst othersand I would like to let everybody know that I am available to transcribe any YES music so do feel free to email me for a quote. I pride myself on the quality and detail of my work.
this is one of the best yes songs I ever hear !!!! like the gates of delirium, close to the edge, the ancient. but I don't know the meaning of the song, someone can tell me ??
@LuisDezz the meaning ..hmmm..the meaning?? ..ummmm..well to me the meaning was some things Are ..Sublime and can not be explained with words..yeah that's the ticket..yeahhhh
How is this even remotely the best track of Tales From Topographic Oceans? I'd say it's rather only slightly better than The Ancient (Giants Under The Sun), behind The Remembering (High The Memory), and The Ritual (Nous Sommes Du Soleil).
It almost impossible for me to describe what this song did, does and means to me. It is so profound, creatively, emotionally, spiritually, intellectually and technically on so many different levels.
@wigginsdesign The opening words, when broken down into proper (and more than one way) punctuation..covers the playful nature of man's science to God. YES goes full circle in the album "TALK" with the song "State of Play".
THIS is getting better !
