  • I was thinking the same thing as the last writer... you have a beautiful voice.

    Now I need to hear more!

  • Tim,Your voice is simply amazing ..! You're a lucky man,my friend ; )

    Attila

  • Awesome Tim! I want to try it out now! haha

    Amy

  • Great cover Tim, congratulations . . .

  • Damn, you guys are GOOD . . .

  • very nice job!!! my autistic son AJ plays piano and I want him to learn this. did you get the chords online somewhere or just figure them out?

  • dam this is beautiful man.. wouldnt tell from the pic haaa.. damn sounds just like anderson.. thanks for this

  • holy shit! this is flawless!! dude, i dont know who you are but god damn! i am speechless.

  • This is absolutely incredible! YES is the best band ever, and this song is one of my favorite tracks. Great job!

  • Wow wow wow! Amazingly good. Thanks

  • Fantastic, so impressed . Do you play live or tour. I am in New Jersey. Let me know where or when you perform.

  • i'm a very critical perfectionist, but you had me singing along in harmony. superb job!

  • Excellent. Bravo!

  • Why aren't you on tour with YES? They won't let Anderson back in the band.

  • Ohhh, what I would give to be able to sing as high as you... I'm pretty sure I would dedicate my life to covering Yes songs : )

  • Wow a fantastic performance. You do a great job. You match mr. Anderson nicely, which is a very hard thing to do. I've send you one of my videos - also a Yes cover. Hope you will se it.

    Greetings from

    Henning

  • The guitar is a Breedlove, probably a Master Class. Nice inlay on the neck! I have one too, the sweetest playing 12 string I've ever played.

  • Damm, you nailed it bro.

  • I heard a Wondrous Story about a guy who sings with the same angelic beauty as Jon Anderson, and thought it was just a myth. Fortunately, I was wrong! BEAUTIFULLY, and WONDROUSLY done!

  • Fantasmic!

    I'm speechless

    (sure beats my whimsical rendition)

  • Wondrous!!

  • Dam! I'm jealous! you totally nailed it vocal and all!

  • it is so nice to see someone put such effort into this lovely song! You are so reverent and truly care about the beauty.... thanks for sharing your musical gifts!!!

  • Probably the most enjoyable 3.46 minutes ill spend today...Thank you.. and very well done sir..:-)

  • i think you could remplace the original singer, with your own sound !! you're very good

  • excelente , muito bom

  • lindo!!!!  amigo

  • If I were lucky to be at a Yes concert to hear this, this is what I would want to hear. Thanks.

  • WOW ! thank you

  • Wow, I am impressed by your voice. Very nice.

  • One of my all time favs from yes......You nailed it, friend....I really can't tell the difference between you and the recording....BRAVO....

  • this is great. I cant work out the song using online tablature, your version sounds best.....wish I could work out what chords you are playing

  • bravo- excellent rendition. just excellent. that breedlove just sings but not as well as you do. if YES ever needs to replace jon, you would do fine.

    btw, can you send me the chord progression you are using ??

    xahne@austin.rr.com

  • Wow!!! Absolutely amazing! Congratulations! You have a great voice which comes a very close second to Mr Anderson himself. Keep up the good work. If you're ever in Adelaide I'd love to do some Wakeman/Anderson songs with you!

  • tim please email me would love to talk!

  • I totally disagree with the Yes members that betrayed Jon Anderson, but you would sound much better in Yes than the dude they are touring with now :) Thumbs up !!

    You even have Jon's accent !!!

  • @TheCheezMusic I agree cheez man he sounds great!

    P.S. Email me

  • I think Jon would be flattered!!!

  • You sound great! Where are you from? I'm from Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

    Best regards!!!!

  • this cover is realy amazing

  • great job! Best cover I have ever heard ---great arrangmebt & vocals

  • VERY GOOD!!! CONGRATULATIONS.

  • Wow,,,,Very nice !!!

  • Really mind blowing. This is one of youtube's hidden gems

  • ..if you like,you can take my vid "the meeting",and do your performance on it...but it's only a little excerpt out of this nice song.....best - SUN :)

  • ...ok,it's a beautiful rendition of your own voice,I see now... - great performance! best - Sun :)

  • hell....the best version i ever heard,im a massive fan of Anderson and Yes, but this is mighty good....get your video to a producer.....

  • Unreal...this guy is GREAT.

    Totally would pay to see this guy.

  • Ilike your wondrous stories!! somebody plays on youtube te Basspart of wonerous stories!! Pleasejoin and find a drummer etc. I would like to isten to a join by youtube Band.

    Iam watching.

    Greetins from Germany, jou know, it'the land with THE RUHRGEBIET. It's a metropole like New Jork, but the Citizents don't know about that.

    Have fun

    Fred ;-))

  • God, what amazing talent!!

  • I'm listening to this again because it's on my favourites.

  • great cover! it would top it off if we got to see what kind of pants you were wearing or not wearing -=)

  • That is amazing...!!!!!!!

  • By the way I play in a band called Wonderous Stories. You'l find us on the net Thanks again..........Kenny Forgione

  • Great sounding 12 string. I cant figure out what kind of 12 it is. Can you let me know? Vocally you could not have done better. I play the song without a capo but it sounds much brighter with it. Does Howe use a capo?

    Great job!

  • @Papalooka the guitar is a Breadlove guitar

    and steve uses a portuguese 12 string guitar

    with no capo i just arranged this great song for my 12 sting capo on the 4th fret

  • Yes Yes Yes ..Just awesome Tim, you have an amazing voice

    Rocket Rob

  • Wow! That was the best cover I've ever heard. Great Job!

  • Man, you have an amazing voice ♥ really love it !

    Keep it up

  • Very authentic indeed. Hes nailing the vocals instead of the typical over enunciated foolishness. He looks relaxed and thats the key.

  • OK, I give up! I can't cover this song myself now after seeing it done as well as this! Great job!

  • awesome/don't tell me that to yes fans that guy should have his own album out

  • Absolutely fantastic dude - great playing, and as I'm sure you know, VERY few people can pull off Jon Anderson vocals - very impressive. Would love to hear more from you!!

  • @yesmonkee yes, almost no one can sing like Jon.

  • @SeattleLA you're right but Tim does sounds nice...

  • @MsDeandrea Hi. Yes, and that was the point of my comment, referring to someone else's comment. I was indicating that few people can sing like Jon, but Tim here can. sing like Jon.

  • cool performance! cool feeling, voice and excellent guitar chords. i love it! thanks so much for your artwork regarding yes songs.

  • ....And again I am surprised about your wonder voice,what can I said that haven't been said? When I heard " your move" I told you I like it but this song(one of my favorites) is putting you (a perfect strange for me) in one of my favorites in you tube,man you are really good.....and please keep me posted!!!!!

  • fucking dead on Tim, and this is probably my favorite yes song!!!! WOW!!!!

  • Okay after listening to your work I wonder how you were passed over for Yes's new vocalist. You blow David away and frankly look a bit more like Jon Anderson ( with the right outfit I'm thinking circa 1996 ).

  • DAMN!

  • blimey!!! Outstanding mate, bloody outstanding

  • Is that really you singing? I love the guitar. That voice is not close...it is perfect. I mean it is a duplicate. Are you sure you are singing that? Great version! Outstanding!!!!!!!!

  • wow that was great, i had doubts when you were about to start singing but you have the perfect voice for yes music which made this cover absolutely perfect, well done, a yes classic

  • Tim.....

    I have been a Yes fan since 1972 and I have seen many, many epic failures on attempts....but for you.....

    BRAVO ! and I mean it , WELL done,... I would actually like to see you do that live.

    That was a real treat for me, I am going to forward this to my sister who is going to love this.

    Thanks.... and more please

  • bellisima interpretacion amigo... mucha calidad ... y mucho sentimiento.... esa guitarra de 12 cuerdas suena tal como es.... y la voz es increiblemente parecida....FELICITACIONES AMIGO...desde MENDOZA .- ARGENTINA

  • wow. BTW good to see you posting again.

  • I think Jon should take you on the road...

  • Great!!!! 10 thumbs up!!! what more can I say?

  • Una voce bellissima

    da un vecchio fan dei mitici YES

  • sigo ...un musico que debe quedarse con nosotros....que nadie pierda de vista nunca.

  • Hi , i received ur personal message.

    Well , you sing pretty well, oldie rocker!!!

    Can u send me more information about ur yes tribute project?

    cheers!

  • Nicely done. I can only imagine how difficult it is to sing in that register IN TUNE! Wow.

  • The "if not" part was in reference to whether you were using a 12-string...again, your voice is wonderful and your guitar sounds fine...

  • Wow...you did a FABULOUS job...are you using a 12-string?...your (voice is wonderful and your) guitar sounds fine - but if not, then I thought that a 12-string could enrichen it even more...again, FABULOUS job...

  • OMG. You pulled this off so damn convincingly. You do a great 'Jon Anderson'. Loved this.

  • Simply wonderful! You do the Jon range well.

  • You absolutely NAILED one of the greatest songs ever written and performed. You absolutely embody and honor the song.

    You have performed one of the greatest classical orchestrated songs ever written with only an acoustic guitar -- Your performance is absolutley on par with the original recording/performance of Jon and the band - I am a huge Yes fan and still perform much of their material. Beautiful guitar too (a Breedlove?) Nice mic/natural ambient sound. It totally works. God bless!

  • you are amazing.

  • you are the voice and the heart of the original yes!! it's faboulous!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • decidement on se croise !! i am here and it's to late here in france, and i see you here one hour:!!!! snifffff!!

  • n my opinion your version is very good.

    Anderson is more carefree in his song,and I'm hearing very pritty and deep voice,here,which I prefer.This song is more romantic,thanks for sharing

  • your to kind

    thanks so much

  • Really good, but remember Jon is the only one, he is really unique. Jon Anderson is a jewerly never made again.

  • i could not agree more

  • Perfect, and Madrigal ????

  • I just had to watch/listen again

    You do NOT cover YES

    You PROJECT YES

    Very nice - perfect

  • Well said.

  • WOW

    YOU AGAIN MADE MY SPINE WOBBLE !!!

    VERY VERY good.

    Jon would be proud !

  • I am Speechless.......Fantastic..

    Best cover yet...Kee up the god songs.

  • Great one!! Cheers Jeroen

  • Excellent, my friend! One of my favorite Yes tunes. Thanks for your comment on my Who cover!

  • best cover I have seen yet... AAA+++

  • tim you're so .... how to say ?? j'aime trop ta voix!! you're are my little "flamme"!!... and i love you!! you have a real" talent!!" talent in french that's mean you are a real voice and i love to hear you!!

  • Very solid , Its great someone covers Jon so well!

  • Another excellent cover! Make a CD already!

  • Comment removed

  • Now THAT''S a voice !!!!

  • Jeez, for a minute I thought you were lip syncing to Jon. You're fantastic !! Very nice on the guitar but not quite Steve Howe tho.

  • Impressive. Thanks for sending me the link.

  • Holy shit! Thank you for sending me the link to this. Honestly... I figured you'd be "okay" but not this great. I had no idea someone else could have a voice like Jon, and your guitar playing is awesome as well. I'm with sirtinycreep on the cover band idea!

  • I must admit, I never thought anyone can sing like Jon......but Man, you proved me wrong! Perfectly in tune all the way! Great guitar playing......!

  • Very impressive. If you shut your eyes it could be a young Jon Anderson. Great Post.

  • Damn dude, you sound great. Very ambitious! Well Done!

  • Wow. Excellent !!! Both the voice and the playing.  Thank you !!!

  • GREAT FANTASTIC VOICE

  • Hi Tim... It's Bob again... You know you really need to put the full backgroung on these.  Their so good but could be so professional with the full background complement. Go to the Terryj57 entry on Wondrous Stories - Yes. Damn It your so great you need to push this up to the next level. I want to see you on TV !!! Damn It..... But I still love the great music!!!!

  • I can't get over how close this is to Jon and the original. Tim, mate, you should be in a YES tribute band!!!

  • Good,Great,Fantastic and Incredible. Keep up the good work.

  • Brilliant cover!

  • Oh YES!!!!! Excellent performance!! 5*****.Take care, my friend ND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !!!.Franco.

  • WOW!!! and for good measure...HOLY CRAP!!! That was just amazing.

    I wish I could start a YES tribute band with you. I can do all the Squire parts.

    Dave, if you ever want to do a YES project, please give me a thought.

    Neal

  • I have to tell you Tim ,That blew my mind !!

    You sing and made that piece sound just like the original.

    Would love to do "Awaken" with you one day !

    Dave... Keyboards

  • whaoooaaaa what's a wonderous voice! and i remember my young age..... bisous to you and thanks so much from France. in burgundia !! cat

  • Belo trabalho, parabéns pelo cover do Yes, em especial a música "soon" que está perfeita.

  • another wonderous cover you are so very talented. thanx.

  • Screw Benoit....you are better......!! Hey Chris, Allan and Steve come and listen to this guy!!

  • Absolutely wonderful. I wish I had those types of vocals. I was the guy you just e-mailed about the yes show I did at Berklee. I was the keyboard player then and now. I've got a fairly high voice but nothing as clear and beautiful as yours or Jon's! Nicely done! Funny enough i'm from Bucks County, PA, and my family still lives arounf the Blue Bell area!

  • Great !!

  • This is amazing... spot on!

  • Very nice.

    The music of Yes is larger than the members themselves.

    I truly believe we're witnessing modern day motzart.

  • Great vocals, not many people out there who can actually cover Jon Anderson. Nice playing and good recording, too!

  • Very well done Tim..very impressing..as usual..

  • Man, you're really good in covering Jon Anderson... I think he's probably one of the best singers in the whole world... you play very well ^^

  • nailed the vocals too wow great job

  • that was great!! You got Jon down to a tee. THe guitar work is great too!

  • Oh, fricking BRILLIANT, this - beautiful work, man, nice sound on the 12-string and you really have a great voice - couldn't help but sing Squire's bit as I watched. Very, very nice, and this from a diehard Yes fan. Top notch.

  • This is actually great, this was the last song I'd imagine a youtuber to cover successfully.

  • Excellent job! Jon Anderson songs are difficult to sing and you pulled this off beautifully. *****

  • Tim: You're the best Jon Anderson sound alike I've ever heard. Where were you when I was in a Yes cover band (Wilmington, DE) in '74 - '75? Were you singing Yes back then?

  • tim you're a genuis! i don't speak so good in english but i am very " impressionnee" by your voice and the "justesse" too ... the voice!!!!!..... whaouaaaaaaaaahhh thanks! cat

  • Great stuff!

  • Your performance is awesome, you just have to remember you are recording video here. You need to find a better backdrop to record them in.

  • excellent cover---wonderful track

  • whaaaaaaaah

    merci de toi ( yes ... lol i love this song and all yes... you know...

  • This is excellent!!! 2 thumbs up!!! One of my favorite songs, and you play it beautifully. I'd love to hear more from you, and will be watching more of your videos!

  • Beautiful... I'd love to hear your take on Turn of the Century!

  • great cover! I love it!

  • J'aime bcp ta voix!...

  • Tim confession time I think of myself as a YES fan but I don't think I have ever heard this song; having confessed to my lack of YESSONGS I felt I was listening to an acoustic rendition of Jon and Steve absolutely fantastic !!! Thanks!!!

  • Kind of surprising considering it's one of their most famous songs. In fact, the current Yes/Asia tour is the first time in over 20 years I've not heard them perform it.

  • ohhhhhhhhhhh que j'adore cette chanson et bien pas mal en presque acapella!! bravo!!!j'adore yes et de tte facon pas facile!!!

  • Pretty good man, getting shades of Jon there, guess I need to watch some more vids.

  • wow yes this video it worths a lot great work thanks

  • you have a great voice

    very good interpretation of a song from my favorite yes album... : D

  • awesome!!! i love it!

  • Very good. Excellent voice!!!

  • Nice! Few can get his voice just right.

  • Well, you wanted my oppinion... just LOVE IT man. Great cover and great voice. Sometimes you did sound like Jon. Just keep on "yessing"...

  • Yes! Yes! keep doing what you're doing! I have heard on the Yes DVD that this is one of the songs they had a bit of a time with to reproduce live, but you have captured the essence of the song, completely and I found myself singing along with you! ...just not as good...

    if you have time, send me the chords, I'd love to play it too. Thanks so much for your effort to learn and perform for us.

  • You have the YES in you man!

  • Very nice.

  • You captured the magic.

  • very nice mate, great song.

  • wow nice singing

  • you nailed it man...it's GREAT!!

  • Put off your mask please Anderson!

  • Amazing ! :-)

  • Well Well nice one Sir:)Say YES to YES

  • great job great tune

  • Great job, TIm! Jon Anderson is one of the few vocalists I don't cover so it's nice to hear someone else do such a wonderful rendition. Your guitar playing is al
