  • This cover is amazing, it blows me away every time. If I look away for a moment I cant help feeling like I'm actually listening to Yes play the song. Not only are the instrumentals spot on (not to mention that the guitar and keyboard effects are perfect), but so is your voice! My only request is if you have a Youtube page for the group so its easier to find all the covers. Anyway great job guys, keep it up!

  • Over the top, guys! Bravo!

  • Where's Chris? What happened to his Channel, Tim? Saw your Swell Season cover w/ Amy, btw.. So lovely. Please be well. DON

  • Exceptionnel !

  • Over the top great! Thanks for sharing!

  • Perfect !!! ˙˙˙˙˙

  • Incredible!  Dead ringer for Jon Anderson.

  • Awesome... and the guitar runs played without tapping technique--bravo!

  • just amazing as always!!! everyone did an awesome job...and the guitar part at 2:35 is beautiful and not so easy...I remember it took me a lot time when I tried to learn it at the age of 11 :)

  • KILLER!!!!!!!!!!

  • Simply fabulous!!  Enjoyed it a lot. Tim's voice is very similar to Jon's. Well done!!

  • Great, Tim, thank you

  • I think amcann7 speaks for everybody here - that was really really good.

  • WOW!

    

  • OMG guys, this is so tight, you all did an freakin' amazing job on this underrated classic of the great YES. Congratulations to each and every one of you, it's really really GREAT!!!!!

  • @amccann7 Thank you so much Amy. Your review is very highly valued. We all really appreciate it.

  • Thanks for the invite! Bravo! Loved it!

  • Fuckin' YES!!

    Excellent.

    This is absolutely perfect.

    Is like seeing Ronaldo, Messi, Rooney, Drogba and Neymar playing in a same team.

    Or the UNION line up touring again.

    Big fan of your works.

    Cheers.

  • Really outstanding - thanks!

    Very interesting iris/eyeball graphic in the end credits. I'd love to know who created that.

  • Tim, this is fantastic!

  • Wow...I was reading the comments before I started watching and I thought "Yeah, right, whatever. Probably ain't gonna be nuthin'...." Totally awesome. The musicianship was really tight and the singer is a dead ringer for Jon. Amazing stuff, and thanks for posting ! Keep it up. Very impressed.

  • This is how it should have sounded all those years ago! Great idea to have "Anderson" sing this! You guys should tour!

  • @periurban Good point....lol

  • Yes-Drama - One of the best executions of a bad idea in the history of music PERIOD. Think about it: You're replacing (arguably) the most distinctive members of Yes (Anderson and Wakeman) with the BUGGLES??!! REALLY??!! And it's their best album since Relayer. Only YES could pull that off. Oh yeah, that cover was great too!

  • @Zzyyxxyyxx Very interesting perspective.....I like it!! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts.

    -TG

  • @Zzyyxxyyxx I think that "bad idea" worked fine only because of the Power Trio backbone sound, Horn produced the album with. I mean, let's be real, G. D's. playing was dispensable.

    Hey, guys! what about a cover of one of the Rabin Era songs? One from Talk (their most underrated album by their own fans) I think "Real Love" would be awesome.

    Please considerate it.

  • @Zzyyxxyyxx wow, I thought Going for The One was their best since Relayer or maybe ever.

  • A lot of fun !!! For us to watch it and for U to make it. Great album and a great song, and even better,  great tribute to YES.

  • Who can argue with perfectio

  • Great version and I daresay a better version than what the current Yes is doing now!

  • Excelente! good work!!! I get suprised by Tim voice...thanks!

    (from Argentina)

  • Yescellent !!

  • Great job! And the vocalist is extraordinary!

  • Really good job.I think progressive rock is by far the most demanding form of rock from a musicianship and vocal standpoint and you have nailed it.Maybe a version of Genesis Suppers Ready would be cool to try or Fifth of Firth.

  • @Big77Jim Old Classic Genesis....That would be fine with me!!!

    -TG

  • Now that I can actually comment again (!), WONDERFUL job all around! Every musician was suited particularly well for this effort. And the video editing was superb, Rich!

  • Beautiful, excellent work by everyone. I'm going to give this one several listens. Pretty damn good job by Richie for his first video. Dave don't need no stinkin' Rickenbacker! That Hagstrom sounds great with the effects. Really enjoyed this one!

  • @tinman3012 I still can't get over how great the Hagstrom sounds either!

    -TG

  • ACOJONANTE !

  • That was UNBELIEVABLE  !!!

  • Mixing is perfect! And those vocals are REALLY similar.

  • Wonderful, my friend!

    Great job! Keep it up.

    5***** from me!

  • Awesome you had me with the first note guys......

  • Wow, wow, wow. Brilliant job. Very impressive musically but also in the video and sound editing. Ah, what labour of love can accomplish! :D Thanks for putting this together, guys. Hats off very low from Montreal, Canada.

  • Clap.clap, clap....aplausos desde Chile, los felicito son muy buenos. Tocan muy bien, muy bueno el video, felicitaciones!!!!!!

  • hermano te felicito excelente interpretacion

    

  • Just fantastic Tim! You guys have done what I would have thought to be an impossible task....Everyone is spot on - ESPECIALLY your vocals. Don't stop till you have all those yes songs in the can. Subscribe? ...YES!

    Len

  • Loved the vocals Tim. Great job by all. Bravo!!!

  • Congratulations, guys, great performance of a great song.  Long live Yes.

  • You're cover of Tempset Fugit was 1st rate and worthy of an A+. All instruments plus voice were awesome. Thanks for a job well done.

  • Very good performance and great video too!

  • WOW!!!!! Love it.

  • very good job. impressed.

  • Fantastic. Near-spot on.

  • @hiddenfire65 You know what? I DO listen to Stewart Copeland but I have to strongly disagree with you about that "style" in the original. Not even close! Especially since I played Alan White's track almost note for note with some minor sound surface changes such as using the ride cymbal on the "in the north sky" verses.

    Thanks for watching.

  • @hiddenfire65 ?????? I didn't think he played on the original song....

  • Absolutely amazing! Very impressive.

  • Awesome job guys! This is great! Tim, your vocals never cease to amaze me. Really, every one of you did a fantastic job. Really enjoyed this.

  • awsome man! Love that song!

  • Good job guys salutes ..//

  • Congratulations Tim! Brilliant vocals ... Great t-shirt you have too! :))

  • GREAT!!..I have no words for this wonderful creation!! Thanks for sharing!cool..this looks so very professionell! congratulations! HAPPY 2012 to all! Sunny :)

  • Tim, Guys frickin' well done! Great vocals (I'm not worthy Tim) and tight,demanding instrumentals through the entire song. You guys blow me away. Just outstanding. My next door neighbors are probably wondering why they just heard me clap and yell "YEAH!, F**KING YEAH!!!!!!!!!!" If the neighbors haven't gotten a sense of humor by now, they never will...

  • Very well done! Thanks for sharing this. I almost thought I was listening to the original recording. Someday I plan to do a death metal cover version of "Machine Messiah," if I can ever get off my lazy ass and figure out all the instrumental parts.

  • Very well interpreted, bravo to you all, but too technical ..... it's not my best song of Yes :-)

  • Good job, guys...rock on!

  • Killer vocals Tim! You never fail to impress me! I'm always happy to see members of our circle of YouTube members come together to pull off such ambitious projects! Hey YouTube, the bar has been set!

  • Fabtastic

  • This is an OUTSTANDING cover of this great song.

  • Wow. That's quite a production! The song sounds perfect, and the video editing is really cool too.

    I didn't expect it to be so good. It's nice to see people go out of their way to produce a top quality cover on YT.

  • Speaking only for myself (and I mean no offense to anyone- not Yes fans or any current members of Yes either),but I would pay to see more of what I just watched,and I would not pay to see Yes in its current form.

  • @klongyaw7 Now THAT is a great and very supportive comment.

    Thank you!

    -TG

  • Simply uncanny. It's great you can reach an audience so your hard work can be appreciated. Just wonderful work, guys.

  • Tim.....I am blown away !!

  • Folks - a sidebar: in all the comparisons don't forget it was Trevor Horn who tracked this (he was lead singer in Yes for the Drama album) not Jon Anderson. Ol' Trevor deserves some credit too!

  • BRAVO!!!

    Another excellent tracking effort guys - keep the fire burning!

  • Wow!! You all did and sounded perfect!! Love the video too!! 

  • Phenomenal, guys! Just what I needed to see today to pick me up! Thanks so much! Keep up the great work, you're all fabulous!

  • @chris21125150 Hey Chris - thanks so much!

    Tom

  • The first time, when I heard Tim singing, I knew HE WAS THE MAN for this and here it has been proven, HE SIMPLY IS! Uncomparably outstanding vocals which I dare to say Jon Anderson wouldn`t have made it better! His endeavor always trying to surpass himself earned me almost a dozen of vocal tracks, where I already was happy with the first ones he sent me. Tim, you are a true talent, and you should be on the big stages, the more I am proud to have you here working with me! THANK YOU MY FRIEND!

  • I've always wanted wanted to hear some Drama material with Jon on vocals, and this is as close as I've gotten. :) I genuinely preferred it to contemporary live versions of the song by the real band. And speaking of the real band, I would very much prefer Tim to their current singer. I can't think of a better singer for the band except for Jon himself.

  • Very well done Tim ! I'm very impressed
